Great for dinner but hotel is overpriced
Pros:

Our stay started extremely well - the service of the front desk is fabulous, really cordial and professional, and the dinner in the restaurant is fantastic. We highly recommend both the "normal" restaurant (which is extremely well executed fine dining with 1-2 vegetarian options) and the otherworldly good and unique KEST gourmet tasting menu. The room itself was tasteful with a comfortable bed and a nicely renovated bathroom.

Cons:

After the fabulous dinner, we really looked forward to breakfast - and unfortunately were quite disappointed. The coffee was the biggest let-down - it's a machine preparing espresso-esque beverages from a concentrate that contains sugar and lots of additives and tastes as bad as it sounds. We loved the idea of offering both a-la-carte options and a buffet but execution unfortunately left us underwhelmed: The buffet (at least in the May version - there was lots of empty space on the counters, maybe they offer more choices in peak season) felt limited; there was no wholegrain bread (in general a surprising gap in Norway given that nearby Sweden has fantastic wholegrain breads), the melons were tasteless, there was no hot chocolate for kids, and sugary wheat puffs were the only cereal option. The a-la-carte items ranged from the tasty (the hot oats with chocolate, almonds and fresh blueberries were great; the (half of a) waffle was nice) to the inedible (the hummus was strangely sour) and were rather small. In light of the exceptionally high price of the hotel, the limited buffet options and the small size of the a-la-carte options, we were taken aback that we could not get a second item.

Overall the hotel felt overpriced - while the price suggests ultimate luxury, aspects of the accommodation were rather basic: e.g., the elevator only reaches the first floor (we had to haul up our bags two more flights of stairs to reach our top floor room with balcony), and because of the tilted ceiling underneath the roof, every time we went to our bathroom or sofa, we had to be careful not to bump our head into a rather low beam. There was no desk and no closet, and consistent with the breakfast, there was no coffee maker for capsules capable of producing high end coffee in the room. Free parking space in front of the hotel is limited and may not be available every night.

Amazing - highly recommended
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Aurlandsfjord. The location is absolutely stunning, with beautiful views of the fjord and mountains that create a truly peaceful and memorable atmosphere. The hotel is charming, comfortable, and perfectly situated for exploring Aurland and the surrounding area.

What made our stay especially enjoyable was the exceptional service. The receptionists were amazing—warm, welcoming, professional, and always happy to help with recommendations and any questions we had. Their friendliness made us feel at home from the moment we arrived.

The excellent breakfast, beautiful surroundings, and outstanding hospitality made this one of the highlights of our Norway trip. We would highly recommend Hotel Aurlandsfjord to anyone looking for a relaxing and authentic fjord experience.

Cons:

Nothing
