Pros:

Kahvaltısı çok iyiydi fakat otelde günlük kullanım için pamuk gibi ihtiyaçların da olması gerektiğini düşünüyorum. Konumu çok güzel tren istasyonunun direk yanında, çalışanlar çok tatlı çok güler yüzlü ve yardımsever

Fjords and Railway Fantastic! Flam, do you need to stay?
Pros:

The seating area in the foyer was a nice place to relax and enjoy the view, there is free coffee available.

Cons:

The bed was small and not very comfortable, the room was quite basic, there is tea and coffee making but no milk? Pricing in Flam is very expensive and with limited options, the restaurant and bar costs reflect this be prepared.

Charming original Flam hotel and at the centre of attractions and pathway through the Fjords.
Pros:

We stayed in a 'historical' double room. It had the charm of the old original building and rooms. Very central to Flam, Flam Railway and meeting point for the excursions offered. The room was clean and tidy and being at the end of October, very quiet.

Cons:

Maybe the provision of some milk for the tea and coffee or a small fridge to keep such things would have enhanced the stay. Otherwise a very pleasant stay.

Good but very expensive
Pros:

Overall a nice hotel, good location and nice staff. It is very expensive so you do expect a bit more. The views are amazing however hotel overall tired & needs doing up. The breakfast buffet was okay but the coffee is atrocious. There is a buffet for dinner which was incredibly expensive so I didn’t try it

Cons:

It is tired and needs modernising, particularly for the price
