We loved the view from our room and the restaurant and enjoyed our evening meal and breakfast

“Boa escolha”

Bela vista para a baía. Se sente que precisa de um pouco a actualização, mas tratar é totalmente correcta. O buffet de pequeno-almoço é ok. Litght muda colocação bastante improvável para este horário. No momento da minha estadia, muito tranquilo e agradável para relaxar.

“Room with a view”

A large room with sitting chairs, a mini fridge, and electric kettle. Also a balcony with tables and chairs to take in the view of the fjord and the grassy lawn. Bed was very comfortable. Free breakfast had good variety. Walkable to town if you don't have a car. Free parking if you do.

“Spacious rooms in a nice location, dodgy restaurant.”

I stayed here while on a weekend road trip in southern Norway. I arrived a bit earlier than check-in time but was allowed to check in anyway.

I stayed here while on a weekend road trip in southern Norway. I arrived a bit earlier than check-in time but was allowed to check in anyway. Parking outside was free and could take quite a lot of cars. My room was very spacious and even though I booked a single room it had a double bed. Each room here has a south facing balcony, I am guessing my balcony alone was 12 sq. m. The very large bathroom had a showercabinet and a seperate bath. Everything in the room was very clean although was showing its age a bit round the edges, nothing of concern though. Tea and coffee making and a mini frodge were provided in the room. The flat screen TV in the room was very big and could swivel to cover any part of the room. Only HD linear TV was available, but the wifi worked very well for streaming on personal devices. The reception, dining and bar areas all look recently renovated, very tastefully done and the bar had a pool table, shuffle board, darts and board games available. So far so good. I decided to have dinner in the hotel and ordered the Fish & Chips. After all, I was in a seaside town in Norway, good access to fresh fish, what could possibly go wrong? How wrong can you be. What I got served up could best be described a Brick and Chips. The fish was undoubtedly some frozen factory-made tapered rectangular lump of fish, coated in thick brown stuff pretending to be batter. The coating was hard to cut through and the fish was dry and chewey. Also the green pea side was served in a miniscule side cup smaller than a shot glass, half filled with liqidized pea. Never, in all my years eating out in Norway, have I been presented with such a terrible meal. Now - the owners could say - but you never tried our pepper steak! My response is that no self respecting kitchen with any standards whatsoever would serve the terrible meal they served up to me. It makes me skeptical to everything else on the menu. Probably also telling that nobody came and asked me how the meal was. Breakfast the nexy day was better, a reasonable if limited selection of bread (no toaster though), cold cuts, warm food including bacon and scrambled eggs and a proper coffee machine. All in all this is a more than OK place but it let me down big time with the horrible evening meal.
