Good for a one-night stopover
Pros:

This lodge is a decent option if you need a place to rest during your road trip. The rooms themselves are very basic and feel quite dated. However, the public areas and the dining room are lovely, comfortable, and offer beautiful views of the water. Overall, it’s perfectly fine for a short, one-night stay along your route.

Pros:

West Rangá Lodge is located on a river close to Vik. It is renown for salmon fly fishing. We were only there for one night, but were able to see a fisherman catch a salmon. We went down the road to see the fish ladder that is used for the fish to climb in order to spawn.
We enjoyed the clean room and amenities. Breakfast was delicious.

Overall a very nice stay and a clean property with a beautiful view.
Pros:

Clean and spacious rooms, good breakfast with peaceful views.

Cons:

Where to go for check in was a bit confusing, signs on the doors made it seem like we needed to go somewhere else, but in fact those doors were open.

Pros:

La temperatura exterior estaba en 9 grados centígrados lo que esperas cuando llegas a un hotel es sentir la calidez por el frío exterior
Cuando camine a mi habitación me percaté que todas las habitaciones vacías estaban con las ventanas abiertas incluyendo la mía
Nuestra habitación estaba helada
La habitación no tenía calefacción en la habitación me llevaron un calenton que no funcionó como esperaba
Iba en un viaje en familia con mi pequeña de 2 años lo cual no fue agradable
Se pueden encontrar mejores opciones a precio más accesible

Pros:

Our reservation was overlooked and our room was not ready and had to wait over an hour to have staff clean a room. Despite this, the stay was still very good with beautiful surroundings and a delicious breakfast. Would stay there again for sure.

Wonderful place
Pros:

Awesome location and great service. Communication upon check-in could have better regarding available amenities/meals. Bedding was not the most comfortable with a warmer room temperature. There was also a mixup regarding being double charged for a room, still pending resolution. But otherwise, a wonderful place to stay.
