“Lovely big hotel.”

Location and loved that that it was a ski in /out and the lockers were in the hotel. Space to keep clothes was very good No fridge or safe which I thought was strange . Needs to have some kind of grocery store as it's quite remote especially on very snowy days and you're a bit trapped . Kids wanted a snack and didn't necessarily want the pizza / buffet restaurant .

“Fair, but probably better during the skiing season”

I liked the spa.

“Could be amazing, but instead mediocre”

As an overall review of the hotel and ski area: Pros: - Overall an enjoyable holiday, spending time with family. - Polite staff at the hotel. - Clean and adequate accomodation, on par with other ski resorts. - Good facilities (but will come back to that). - Great ski location for beginners. Some nice easy runs to get started! Cons: - As a ski area (appreciate not hotel related), the lift infrastructure is very much in need of an update; very old chair lifts and predominantly button lifts, some which are very steep. However, the cost of the lift pass is on par with a resort like Cervinia (Italy's flagship ski resort). - The hotel has all of the ingredients to make it great, however, it let's itself down, reasons below: 1) You have to book everything. It removes any element of spontaneity and in some cases, e.g spa, book well in advance, and by this I mean before you even arrive! If you don't, you can't get in. 2) You have to pay for the spa/pool. For a hotel such as this, I would expect not to have to pay for a session, but you do and it's not particularly cheap (when you can make a booking). 3) You have to pay for a ski locker?! Never seen this before. 4) The hotel often feels short staffed. We waited every evening at the bar in the lounge for someone to turn up to serve. 5) The hotel is quite isolated. There are no other real options for evening restaurants if you don't have a car, so you are quite restricted. In a nutshell, great holiday, but the Ski Star Lodge feels very commericalised. More about profitability / paying for everything than customer experience and thus there is room for improvement. It's a shame as it could be amazing, instead it is mediocre.

“Perfect comfortable cosy and convenient ski accommodation”

The best experience, wouldn’t stay anywhere else !

“Happy with the stay”

Good breakfast. Excellent location in Trysil (ski in- ski out).

The breakfast and the Italy restaurant were good

Great location, ski in ski out, great spa, good food, wonderful staff

“A wonderful place to stay and ski as a family.”

We had such a lovely stay, the hotel is very relaxed and friendly, the staff were all wonderful. The ski lifts are just outside, and there is a ski rental shop at the hotel, too, where the staff were also really helpful and friendly. The atmosphere of the whole place is very understated and relaxing. We'd love to come back!

Nice location Slopes are beginner friendly The Stabben bar has good food

Great location, Good breakfast and nice atmosphere.

“Great hotel choice for a ski vacation”

Beautiful hotel facility. We rented a well furnished apartment. Easy ski in ski out with a ski basement right on the slopes, great spa (additional charge), and good breakfast buffet in the morning.

“We absolutely loved our stay and can't wait to return.”

Excellent breakfast buffet - lots of choice and great quality. Loved the spa and pool facilities. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. Ski hire was efficient and the hotel was in a great location right next to the ski slopes.

“Wonderful hotel. I hope to be back there again.”

The spa was excellent. We stayed right at the end of the season and the ski resort was super quiet. Great snow and almost empty slopes. The ski in ski out at the hotel was great and the ski facilities such as lockers were brilliant. The hire shop at the hotel was very handy and easy to use. Staff were friendly. Parking was very good with indoor secure parking. We stayed for 2 separate weekends and so had a different room each time. Both were nice but the second one was a superior room with Mountain View and that was fantastic. I would recommend this hotel and would definitely stay there again.

“nice place and good staff but you need to improve dining and noisy guests at 4.00 am”

location and staff

“A nice hotel in a great ski in and out location but sadly one room a bit too noisy!”

Good variety of food in the buffet and always able to get seated, even though very busy in the mornings. Friendly hotel staff and a lovely spa and bar for after skiing. Views from the hotel balcony were lovely and mountain location for ski in and out was great, plus lockers for equipment and underground car parking,

“Really nice resort with awesome location on the mountain side”

Everything really - all was really good. Great apartment, clean facilities, very nice breakfast buffet and friendly and service minded staff. Recommendable from all perspectives.

THe hotel has really good spa facilities and the family rooms was of a very good size with 3 bedrooms.

“Great location and excellent for skiing”

location was great and the size and set up of the family apartments
