Convenient place to stay if you want to visit the Hardangerfjord area fjords . They have a great breakfast buffet that is constantly refilled as eggs or pastries are gobbled up. We took a ferry to Flam and the train up the hill ftom there

We booked a two bedroom which was very spacious for three adults. It was not by the water but on the road, but still had beautiful views. The really big downside is that the bedrooms are upstairs and the bathroom is downstairs. My husband slipped on a step in the middle of the night and hurt himself. And it was generally inconvenient to get ready for bed and get dressed in the morning. We were leaving early to go ziplning, and even though we arrived at 8pm the person who checked us in happily collected some sandwiches and a juice for us to take in the morning. However the actual breakfast buffet, which we had the next day, is very average quality.

The views are amazing they make the stay worth it. The view and decor in the rooms are fun but thats about it. If you are looking for comfort or functionality the viking rooms are not for you.The beds are like stone. They do not offer do not disturb and they have maid service everyday-no option to opt out. There are a lot of activities to choose from and its also full of tourists in and out with the different cruise and ferry boats. The Restaurants are just ok. The bakery and a la carte restaurants are the best out of them all. The viking village is fun and priced for tourists. All in all we loved the views and the fjord, everything else is just average.

Conveniently located where the boat docks, and where the buses/coaches -drop and start from. Walkable to reception where we were handled in a very pleasant manner. Given a Viking room with an excellent view of the waterfalls. Provided with eye masks as they have a skylight. If you like a dark room then you need to use them, as the at this time of year, not very much darkness. Ear plugs were provided as well. Room had a bed, chairs, tables, tv, kettle with some cups and coffee, plus small amount of information. Bathroom - shower, toilet, sink, towels, shower gel/soap. Interesting vegetation on roof. Room was decorated well however small areas in corners and around window, could be looked at to improve. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. Relaxing night would recommend saying there.

A Magical Stay. Life changing and Unforgettable

I know they didn't create the view, but it was hard not to think you were in paradise the entire time. The breakfast was my absolute favorite. The close proximity to Viking Village makes this place a 'must stay'. We stayed in one of the 'less fancy' cabins... but because of the view we still felt spoiled.
