The Bardøla is right in the centre of Geilo, making it super easy to get to ski schools and slopes. Plus, it's just a short distance from the town centre, so you can easily check out local shops and attractions. For extra convenience, the hotel offers a free ski bus to take you straight to the slopes so you can maximise your time on the mountain.
Bardøla Cabins are situated within the Hotel Bardøla and offer a fantastic option for larger families and groups, accommodating up to 10 people. These cabins benefit from a central location in resort, and you'll have access to all the fantastic facilities within the hotel building during your stay, including an indoor heated swimming pool, sauna, fitness room and children's playroom.
Each cabin is built from solid, laminated timber and comes with everything you could need for a week in the mountains, including an open-plan living space, a fully equipped kitchenette and four comfy bedrooms. Despite the traditional log cabin exterior, each cabin's interior is modern, with shower rooms having underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove for the perfect evening atmosphere.
The cabins are offered on self self-catered basis. If you would rather take the fuss out of meal times, you can upgrade to half board for an additional supplement, which includes a tasty breakfast and a three-course evening meal at Sofia's Restaurant.
Cabins comes with a fully equipped kitchenette. For the days when you don't feel like cooking, there's a great range of restaurants in Geilo, including the onsite Sofia's Restaurant, which serves up a delicious mix of local and international dishes, often including salads and burgers, all made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. A small takeaway menu with a range of sandwiches and salads is available. Pay locally.
If you have upgraded to half board, you can enjoy a tasty buffet breakfast with a classic continental offering and a delicious three-course evening meal served at Sofia's Restaurant - the menu often features traditional Norwegian dishes, with an international flair.
