ホテル カロリネン オーレ

The hospitality and cosy comfort provided by the Karolinen hotel at Åre Björnen are second to none. All the staff went out of their way to make me feel at home and orientate me with the extensive downhill and cross-country ski trails in the area. My room had a very comfortable bed and even had its own spa bath and Sauna! The traditional wooden building with its log fires and views over the frozen lake create a particularly homely and comfortable atmosphere. A superb buffet breakfast and afternoon tea were included with my booking. People staying in the cabins around the Karolinen also commended them to me. The local ski company runs a convenient shuttle bus that connects the Karolinen every 30 minutes to the nearest ski trails 5 minutes up a steep hill and to other parts of Åre. I stayed for 8 nights for cross country skiing and loved every minute.
