Pros +
- The location - very peaceful with beautiful surroundings. The generous breakfast buffet.

Cons -
- Rather spartan amenities in the room.
- Don't expect any fancy hotel, as the bedrooms are quite simple. Also, the beds are not the most comfortable, but not bad either.

Rooms ok, good breakfeast, ok spa facilities, nice staff
The restaurant was not open, could have been mentioned when we booked or in later comms. Expensive ferry tickets. No transport from ferry to hotel.
Location Outside appearanceUnique to go by ferrySecure indoor bike storage
Tired, empty lonely feeling place.Extra charge for ferry and bikes each way.We felt they were opaque about the cost of dinner. The food was good, one set meal only was offered, top $$ (we had to ask the cost,it wasn’t openly shown anywhere).

All the stuff from bar tender to chef and all the crew was amazing. Very hospitable people and smiles and assist you all the time. So helpful and very kind. Spa and the woman who work there was amazing and sweet. The food was fantastic . Place is peaceful and safe. The boat driver always smiling and talking to us. They speak english as well. The hotel ... No words can explain. Definitely will come back again. 500% love the place and all the people who works there.
Only the fiske soupe down to seilerkro. Because it's not fresh . Other than that they are all friendly.

Breakfast absolutely incredible, with wide varety and something for everyone. Staff were friendly and helpful. Pool and spa was nice, and well maintained.
Very outdated rooms in poor shape, and felt things in the room haven't been updated since the 90's. Beds very uncofortable for a couple. TV was tiny, no plugs to be found for chargers, dimly lit with small lamps. Felt like everything was a significant extra charge when the room is already not cheap. Extra charges for everything like parking, ferry, pool towels, even a cup of coffee. Price of dinner was outrageous (almost 700 per person). Saunas and and spas turn off very early at 19. Finally, we arrived to a freezing room with all heaters turned off, and took hours to finaly get warm - which is a very rough first impression after traveling.
Location is good. Atmosphere great.
Christmas buffet too expensive! Not worth NOK 700 per person. Freezing rooms, heat not turned on before arrival.
The minibar put of order in all rooms
