Pros:

This hotel reminded us of a post-Communist era Eastern European property, like the former Yugoslavia. It looked like Tito once stayed there. The room was overly warm, but there was no thermostat to adjust. You could open a window, but then flies and mosquitoes came in. There was no “do not disturb” sign, so we told the desk clerk we didn’t want cleaning. They came in anyway, and moved all of our clothes and toiletries. The breakfast was very ordinary and subpar compared to other Norwegian hotels. The property is convenient to touring the fjords areas, however. There is a good little Asian restaurant in the next town over, too.

A reasonable hotel
Pros:

Maybe a potential problem is that the nearest restaurant is about 22 miles away. The buffet style dinner is good though. The free breakfast is also very good.

Pros:

Overall a disappointing stay though the hotel has beautiful views. Room was spacious and reasonably comfortable. What should have been hot food at the buffet dinner and breakfast was all cold or lukewarm at best. No other options for food nearby.

There was no air conditioning in the top floor lake view rooms. Fine situation if it is cold, but with hotter weather this is a real issue.

Stort, fint rom med utsikt over vannet. Veldig god seng, men minus for hodeputa! Den som er ment å sove på, er veldig tynn og uformelig.
Nydelige fellesareal.

Mikrobad
Pros:

Mikroskopisk bad. Nesten umulig å dusje. Ikke plass til å sitte normalt på toalettskålen pga toalettpapirbeholderen. Utrolig at slike forhold presenteres gjestene

Great Hotel, But Not the Room We Reserved
Pros:

While planning our dream vacation we only had time for one night deep in the fjords. We spent hours searching for the ideal hotel location with a magnificent view. We reserved 5 months in advance (paid on Dec 12, 2024). We even upgraded to a SUPERIOR room with Waterfront VIEW (Canal View) to make the one night even more special. SADLY, when we checked in at 16:30, we received a somewhat run-down room with a tiny bathroom and a view of some roof tops and the motorway. The beautiful photos of magnificent views & large bathrooms on Hotels.com were not our reality. We politely asked the front desk if they had any superior rooms available that had a view of the water (Canal View) as our reservation stated a “Canal View”. The kind lady said that they did not have any other available rooms. However, one hour later, a tour bus of guests arrived (this means that there were other rooms STILL available when we had inquired). The location and common areas of the hotel are fantastic. The breakfast was EXCELLENT (Thon Hotels have always had the best breakfast). But, when friends ask about the world famous Norway fjords, our hotel room experience was not what we reserved. :-(
