Nice quite surrounding
Pros:

The location has so beautiful surroundings, and there are activities you can do from there. Also, there is a variety of restaurants for being a small place.

Cons:

The price paid for the type of room that I ended up having wasn't matching. Also, the bed was kinda hard.

Pros:

Hotel w typowym norweskim stylu, fukcjonalnie urządzony. My korzystaliśmy z apartamentu z aneksem kuchennym, na 2 noce w zupełności wystarczającym. Śniadania bardzo dobre, w okolicy zarówno możliwość zjedzenia posiłku w restauracji lub pizzerii, ale także duży sklep oferujący przekąski do podgrzania, można również z powodzeniem zakupić produkty i zrobić posiłek w aneksie kuchennym przy pokoju. Okolica jest świetną bazą wypadową do zwiedzania fiordów, trekkingu po okolicznych górach, rejsów promami, pływania kajakiem, dobre połączenie autobusowe z Flam i Voss, a jeśli ktoś korzysta z wypożyczonego samochodu-bardzo dużo stacji ładowania (różnych firm).

Exceptional scenery, but a bit pricey and crowded with tourists during the day. Quieter during evening hours.
Pros:

Really beautiful scenic location.

Cons:

This is an extremely popular tourist embankment point. During the day there are big crowds of tourists off loading from buses. At this price point, I thought the hotel would be a bit better.

Amazing location and a good stay if you don’t think too much about the price.
Pros:

Facilities and location were excellent. Lovely novelty room in Viking Valley. Staff were super busy (they seem to be wearing many hats) and not overly friendly. Breakfast was good.

Cons:

So pricey - AUD$900 a night is really expensive for what this service.

Pros:

We stayed in an apartment for 5 people. The location was very good, easy to reach from the boat and bus if you are not travelling by car. We only stayed one night on our trip in Norway. The breakfast was very good and so was the food in the evening in the hotel restaurant.

Cons:

The apartment did not look like in the pictures on booking.com at all. It was in a different building. The apartment was ok but the price was excessive for what it was. The bathroom upstairs had a smell which would not go away so we just closed the door and did not use it at all.

In the middle of nature, very helpful staff
Pros:

We particularly liked the friendliness of the staff. We stayed for one night and we have a very early start the next morning, before they served breakfast so they prepared a take away breakfast which we highly appreciated.
The hotel has a beautiful view on the Nærøyfjord and is right next to the Viking village. The location is perfect for a cruise to Flam.
The room was comfortable. Only the bathroom was very small but since we only stayed one night, it didn’t matter.

Cons:

N/A

Beautiful location, lovely cabin
Pros:

The location was absolutely stunning, I wish we could have stayed longer. The staff were great, and the accommodation was very cosy and warm despite it being quite cold outside.

Cons:

The breakfast could have had more options, but it was still good quality despite this.

Beautiful location, good for families
Pros:

The views from the rooms are stunning. It is right next to the docks for the ferry. There is a nearby grocery store and several restaurants on site with good food options. The rooms were spacious and comfortable.

Cons:

The price is high due to the area.
