Gausta Sportell
The Gausta Sportell is perfectly placed in the Hovdestaul area of Gausta, offering genuine ski-in, ski-out convenience. You’re immediately on the green Hovdestaul slope, allowing you to click in your skis right at the door and glide directly onto the mountain.
Inside, the hotel is a sleek slice of Scandi design – all clean lines, calming palettes of brown, grey, and cream, and large windows framing snow-covered views of the Telemark mountains, including glimpses of the iconic Gaustatoppen peak. Choose from cosy double rooms to three-bed apartments, ensuring the ideal mountain retreat for any group. Select rooms overlook the piste, giving you a front-row seat to watch the first skiers carving fresh tracks as you enjoy a morning coffee. Modern, well-appointed bathrooms add a touch of comfort to your stay.
Fuel your adventurous days on the slopes with a wonderfully hearty breakfast. Enjoy a satisfying spread of meats, cheeses, and hot favourites like sausages, omelettes, and pancakes, setting you up perfectly for your ski adventure.
In the evening, the hotel’s stylish dining space welcomes you to unwind. Start with a comforting bowl of soup before moving on to two more tasty local dishes, crafted with high-quality seasonal produce .
The half-board upgrade offers a fantastic perk: the flexibility to swap your evening meal for dinner at the renowned Gaustablikk Mountain Resort on two separate occasions.
Your standard three-course set menu dinner is served in the charming Bjørk Restaurant .
Alternatively, you can choose to dine at the more relaxed Fjell Bistro in the Stova building, or receive a partial payment voucher for the à la carte menu at the sophisticated Blikk Fjellbrasserie. Remember to book any of these alternative dining options with the staff at the Sportell at least two days in advance.
