Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciate the hotel's magnificent location by the fjord and the charming historic building, which offers beautiful views and a relaxing atmosphere. The service is generally good, with friendly staff and excellent breakfast. However, some guests note issues with room size, outdated and cold rooms in the modern building, and occasional noise from the bar. The value for price is questioned by some due to room quality and high prices for dinner buffets. Overall, the hotel is recommended for its unique setting and ambiance despite some maintenance needs.
