Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers clean and well-furnished rooms like apartments with a kitchenette, lacking only a mirror or dressing table despite the room's size. The service is exceptional, ideal for outdoor activities or relaxation, and met my expectations on the first night. The location provides beautiful views along the water and is perfect for admiring the Hardanger tour. The dining experience, although excellent with a vast selection, was slightly pricier compared to other places I visited. Overall, the hotel offers great value for the money.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The room was perfect for a short stay; the decoration was lovely, and it was clean and quiet. The elegant design with a balcony overlooking the fjord was a real highlight. The service was very friendly and helpful, but at times they seemed a bit overwhelmed with the group. The location in the charming village of Norheimsund was ideal, right opposite the fjord and with modern rooms. The dining experience was a bit pricey and not the best quality, but the breakfast offered lots of choice in a beautiful setting. Overall, a great value for the money!
