From the moment we arrived our hosts were kind, welcoming and thought of our every need. Villa Fregn is unique and so much more than a first class hotel offering five star outdoor adventures. It also embraces fabulous and interesting food all carefully prepared and beautifully presented in a warm and comfortable dining room with an open fire. Our room was perfect, with the most comfortable beds and a separate living space with views over the frozen river and the mountains beyond. Our hosts tailor-made an outdoor agenda to suit us perfectly, all of which has left us with beautiful memories of a stunning place and people.

I like the cosy style of the hotel. Really close to skiing town Trysil, not so far from the boarder with Sweden, but far from loud night clubs. It's a perfect hotel who love skiing and prefer avoiding loud nights.

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.

It has a good location, close to the bus stop and the city center itself

The location was excellent! Friendly host, comfortable beds

Great house with all amenities, cleanliness, boardgames, kitchen equipment (coffee machine especially). Hosts were very gracious and accommodating, and even left treats and toys for the dog. Will be coming back, can highly recommend.

Everything! The winter view from the window was magical and the cottage looked better than on the pictures. The hostage was helpful and nice :)

Perfect for a large family. We loved the private sauna, the location right next to the ski lift, and the ability to go sledding with the kids in the evening. The apartment had a Bluetooth speaker, large TV with YouTube and screen sharing, and a well-equipped kitchen. We would love to return!

Such a beautiful cabin in an ideal location! We were there near the beginning of April and were an ideal distance from touristy attractions and the ski resort but also nicely located so as to enjoy peace and quiet in the mountains with our family. Would definitely recommend it to others and hope to return!
