Stayed half board with 2 children, 6 and 11 travelling from the UK via Oslo and hire car. Slopes and ski school were conveniently immediately over the other side of the road. Room was comfortably scandi basic with 2 singles and a sofa bed. TV, fridge and kettle. Bathroom with over bath shower was a little tired but perfectly fine. Car park view onto the slopes but given the weather, it was a pleasing winter wonderland. Food was surprisingly excellent, with a Norwegian emphasis (plenty of pickles and sea food) but also lots of choice of fresh dishes, salads and vegetables. Fussy kids were satisfied with some staples like lasagne, fish and chips, etc. Breakfast options were similarly wide with luxuries like smoked salmon etc available. Wide range of alcohol but pretty expensive as it is Norway. Given the ugly exterior, the hotel interior was surprisingly smart, plenty of stuffed animals, paintings, open fires, etc. slightly odd collection of traditional dolls in lobby. Very spacious, it didn’t feel crowded - or in any way lively if that is what you are after. Amenities were great: cosy lounges, pool table, function rooms, large hotel gym, bar, sauna, etc. Pool was large and warm enough for kids, although rather old school - lacking any kind of shallow end (out of my depth as a 6’ bloke t both ends.) There was a hot tub/paddling area that little ones could use. Only criticism was lack of ready information on any amusements - we stumbled on a kids magician and cinema showing that we didn’t know about. Car parking extra charge at about daily 5GBP+ depending where you park. Charge points available of various types. Great location for families who want to ski together on a small resort with plenty of easy runs. Ski school was good but only 1:30 hours daily so not much use for childcare if adults want lengthy ski time (private lessons also available). Black and reds on the other side of the valley are either an exciting 15min drive on hardpacked snow roads or take the resort mini bus. However I would struggle with that if using the time out while kids were in lessons. Runs don’t compare to the alps but with few queues, even in half term, you can enjoy the space, great views and snow. Runs did include a mogul field, snow park, kids areas and ski cross winding fast paced tracks. Lots of space to ski in between the pistes in the trees. Various other activities on offer from ice fishing to dog sledding - all pricy. Staff were all pleasant and helpful, and the locals all very friendly - perfect English widely spoken.

Excellent stay at the Beitostolen Radisson. I would definitely come back and recommend to anyone. The hotel is large and roomy, good standard of finish in the rooms, spotlessly clean all over. Food was amazing and we were very well looked after at meal times. Breakfast is everything you could ever want. Room and restaurant had the most amazing views. The pool is huge! Biggest hotel pool I have ever seen and warm! Male and female saunas and large, well equipped gym. Staff were all amazing and helpful. Hotel could not be better located to the ski area and shops. We were half board and did not really need any more food in the day as we were so well fed. Big thanks to everyone at the hotel who made our holiday one to remember for a lifetime.
