Säfsen reviews (Page 3)

A small ski resort with everything you need.
Perfect slopes and area for the family with small children who learn to ride or who already can and want to go on their own adventures on the slopes. It is also a good place if you as an adult want to learn to ride.
It is also possible to do other activities than skiing in Säfsen.

We have now been in Säfsen for 3 days. Everything has been very good. We have been there a couple of times before and thrive fantastically well in its surroundings.
We want to give extra praise to Karin at the reception and to caretaker Jan! What nice, accommodating and service-minded people !!
You fixed everything super well !! Flower for you🌺🌸👏
We will be back again soon!

Nice accommodation and both good and bad service. There is a lot of potential for better and more experiential than what is offered today. Stopped at a barbecue hut but was told afterwards by staff that firewood was not available at the sites. So you have to drag firewood if visible and have to grill on top. Not very fun after a long ride with the bike uphill. We also missed being able to order a proper hot chocolate for our children and warm ourselves in front of a fire for example after a terrible day of cycling but no hot drinks other than coffee were not really up to our expectations. We also booked a table for a barbecue. And nothing was grilled. As I said, okay if you just want to get active and eat well yourself in the cottages in the apartments. But no direct coziness or taste experience on site which felt a bit boring. Good bike trails and hiking trails.

Here I learned to ski! The teachers are talented and committed. We lived in the wolf track where it was just a matter of getting out to get to the hill. If you do not live there, you unfortunately have to take the car to the mountain. The slopes are wide and good for beginners but get boring on the day you become mediocre to ride. Säfsen is close to western Sweden, which makes it worth a day trip if you like to go. If you are not a beginner, it will not be as fun to go for several days because the majority of the slopes are green / blue. Overall a good ski resort for day trips and beginners!

Ideal for the family of children.
Enthusiastic and talented ski school teacher.

Have only experienced convenient bookings and payments, as well as nice staff.

I thought that they had many lovely slopes that the whole family could ride together and it was nice that you could switch between sitting lift and anchor lift when you were going up to the top of the mountain. Quite simply, it was one of the best trips I've ever had in

Very good ski resort for families with young children who are going to learn to ski. Säfsen inclusive is the perfect combo for those who want to relax on their holiday. Allinclusive!

Everything was bad the staff is whimsical
Stayed in a cabin where all utensils were dirty, the dishwasher didn't work, there was a strange smell in the home,

We were there last spring (Feb-18). Most things went well although there were small things to mention, but we do not think they are something to care about. Overall experience was top. Unfortunately, it was a hassle with the bill. At first, the staff was wrong, but it resolved. We left there. The following week we received a letter with a bill when they thought we had paid too little. We called, got this done. It was the old mistake that some loan had left in the system. Ok, we thought, peace and happiness. After some MONTH a letter came with the sum PLUS a receipt that we would not have paid pizzas we had ordered one evening. The thing was that we paid in the restaurant when we picked the pizzas! (that was, for example, a circus, the staff in the restaurant that evening were very nice). We called again, explained the whole thing and they ended up and understood. We also had bank statements that we had paid all the sums, including the pizzas. Today (Nov-18, ie over a HALVÅR later - count on a bill again! No explanation, it just says "payment reminder." So you get really angry! Fun to come home on a Friday and find that letter in the mailbox. but nobody was able to take this matter right now so now I'm writing here! There will never be any more booking there for us.

After 3 days of accommodation in the ski area 2018:
good +
Personal & friendly staff. Affordable. It is possible to stay at the ski slope, modern and good. Unbeatable buffet cabin hotel! (Car needed). The backs are quite ok given the conditions. Beautiful surroundings with mountain feel. Perfect for beginners.
Bad -
Everything closes in the evening in the ski area .. ie no local service or evening restaurant. The only chair lift is incredibly slow! Parking for residents on the slope (ski area) is not enough for everyone. The lunch restaurant is quite noisy and completely underdeveloped.
