Christmas Eve at Hafjell Hotel

The menu on Christmas Eve consists of a classic Norwegian Christmas buffet, available to both hotel guests and visitors who want an atmospheric Christmas Eve with us at Hafjell Hotel. On this day, there is always great joy and anticipation among the guests, who enjoy the Christmas party. In addition, we have guests who come from other accommodations and cabins in Hafjell to participate in the celebration.

Christmas at the hotel
In the evening, the fireplace spreads its warmth, and many people gather in the fireplace room to share the day's experiences and make plans for tomorrow. For those who need a last-minute Christmas gift, the Christmas town of Lillehammer is only 15 km away. There you will find a wide range of shops, galleries and museums. A stroll in Storgata gives a magical feeling of Christmas.
