Everything was very nice and the staff at the hotel was very professional and helpful…the only thing that was kinda over priced for the quality was the food at Rusty’s restaurant at the base of the sky area.

Wonderful setting, probably won't be back.

I felt like I wasn't welcome there. The check-in person was brusque, and the constant email and text reminders were annoying. Always trying to sell me more. While the room was clean and all the basic supplies were there, the fact that there wasn't one chair in the place meant I had to sit on the floor to put on my shoes an socks. Who chooses the TV system?

Classic Comfort at the Granlibakken

We never stay anywhere else. Yes it's pricey,but oh so wonderful. Even with construction going on, it's peaceful and comfortable. When the pool is quiet, take a heavenly swim. Breakfast is fantastic!!
Enjoy the view and relax while watching kids play on the hill.
