Nice staff, really the biggest place in Flam - which is only a few touristic buildings. Nice view on the Fjord.

We would stay here again.
Pros:

The location was wonderful. We had a picture perfect view of the town, the mountains, and the water. At the hotel you can climb two more floors to a viewing loft. The breakfast was great. There was hot foods, cold foods, food for any diet, juices, coffee, and tea.

Ótima escolha.
Pros:

Ótimos hotel. Pena que ficamos somente uma noite. Localização ótima, café da manhã excepcional, conforto do quarto excelente. Staff extremamente profissional e educado.

Cons:

Para os padrões brasileiros a cama é muito mole. Não tivemos problemas, mas há pessoas que podem estranhar.

Pros:

Traumhafte Lage, aufmerksames Personal, tolles Frühstücksbuffet

Cons:

Es war lautes Stühlerücken aus den Nachbarzimmern hörbar. Filznoppen könnten dieses Problem beheben. Hellhörig war es im Grunde nicht

A hotel that survives only because of location.
Pros:

The location, public spaces, and the breakfast

Cons:

The bed was awful. Way too small for two people. The shower oscillated between hot and cold water. The tub is very high to step over.
