    Cannot complain on anything

    10AsbjørnPosted on: 10-1-2024

    Beautiful place situated on the store of the fjord.

    The bathroom was very small. The menu could have been more varied.

    10MarkPosted on: 9-25-2024

    The setting is stunning. Room with balcony spacious. Great breakfast and restaurant.

    The hot tub was not working.

    8HelenPosted on: 9-11-2024

    The view from the hotel is gorgeous and I loved the RIB boat trip I did. The team at the hotel were lovely.

    The WiFi in the room was terrible.

    Amazing location, very nice and pleasant staff, room was on the lake, pleasant lobby . Convenient free parking

    8ĒriksPosted on: 8-27-2024

    The hotel is excellent in the most beautiful place of the district. But you must stay in a lake view room !Very important!

    Early in the morning it was very noisy under our window, I think, truck was delivering food to the restaurant for breakfast (it was parking view room)

    6JuliaPosted on: 8-11-2024

    The best thing in this hotel was the location and the views! Breakfast was also good.

    We were told that there was a yacuzzi and sauna outside for rent. We were delighted after driving the whole day and looking forward to these. Sauna was without a shower, shower was found outside but the water was cold. The worst thing was "yacuzzi", cold water and no bubbles or anything. The water was so cold that we couldn´t sit there more than a minute. Then go to sauna and wash ourselves with cold water after that. BIG disappointment. It should be told what these really are... The elevator kept TERRIBLE noise in our room which was right next to it but luckily it was shut during the night.

    7IsabellePosted on: 8-10-2024

    We loved the location of this beautiful old charming hotel, facing the fjord, the view from the restaurant and the balcony ( if you’re lucky to get one). The sauna right on the water was a plus! The breakfast was excellent.

    Our room was very old. The cleaning was average, bathroom with mildew.We were just next to the elevator with heavy traffic, and Not soundproof, I had to take a melatonin pill to fall asleep due to noise. I am sure another room further from elevator would be more quiet. Overall style is nice but some basic renovations could be done.

    3JanePosted on: 8-8-2024

    Great view. Bedroom quite nice. Staff were nice, especially Jonas.

    Room overlooked carpark, and was next to constantly noisy lift-shaft. Bathroom was quite unpleasant - mouldy smell, which probably emanated from the unsealed gaps around the bath where water from the shower (located in the bath) ran copiously.Very short evening menu, despite the large size of the hotel. No vegetarian options for main, just 3 choices, all meat or fish. I asked if the kitchen could accommodate a vegetarian main, and was told I could have the kids menu of pasta with red or white sauce.... so no effort to accommodate vegetarian guests basically.

    The breakfast was a basic, typical Norwegian breakfast. You could make your own waffles, which was nice. There were scrambled and sunny side up eggs. They had a meat ball which was rather plain.

    The room was clean but very basic and cold - everything felt a little dated.

    We made a 10 days tour in Norway and this hotel was the best. Big, clean and modern room, with an outstanding view. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The dinner was excellent. The area is quite, peaceful and very beautiful. I definitely recommend this hotel and can't wait to return here.
