Pros:

Jeg er ofte i Vrådal på jobb. Dette er første gang jeg måtte bli over - og jeg var litt spent på det. Hotellet er fantastisk. Fine folk som jobber der og det gav meg selvsagt god opplevelse på overnattingen

Pros:

Skuffende middag og frokost. Simpelt rom og ikke utstyrt med annet enn små hånd håndklær. Dyrt og slett ikke verd prisen, men fin beliggenhet.

Fabulous , quirky hotel with great food
Pros:

Very pretty, historical hotel in a wonderful location. Staff were really welcoming. Our room was quite small but comfortable. We ate at the buffet in the evening which had a fabulous choice and breakfast was lovely too. The layout of the hotel was quirky but beautiful

Cons:

Somethings were tired in the room and our widow frame was broken letting in cold air
