A most beautiful property about 15 minutes from downtown Kristiansand. Rooms were large and comfy with lovely decor. The grounds were beautiful to walk around and, if weather had permitted, we definitely would’ve spent more time on the river bank. Pierre was a great sommelier accommodating our needs in a sweet and kind way.

Being out of town you are kinda locked into the restaurant for dinner which would not be a problem if it was possible to order a la carte rather than having to choose from the three or five course meal which was expensive. Just a heads up tho: There is a communal kitchen where a meal can be prepared - we did not realize that before we arrived.

Fantastic staff and extensive property along the river. Easy drive to Kristiansand. Creative food. Loved open windows with breeze and sound of river even on rainy days. Wide range of room options. We stayed in Kornhouse with common kitchen area. Staff provided wonderful salad and wine on first night so we didn’t have to drive for dinner. Beds so comfortable. Flowers throughout property inside and out were a treat.

Extra shelf in bathroom would have been nice.

Just a fantastic place to stay. The location is serene and the facilities impeccable. The staff were extremely pleasant and nothing was to much trouble. Breakfast was lovely. Would have stayed longer if I could. Very comfortable rooms and great Wi-Fi.

My stay was too short.

This hotel was in a wonderfully bucolic setting. The main house was exquisite, so beautifully decorated and our room by the river was evocative of classic nordic country hytte. The dinner was spectacular, as was the wine paring. We could not have had a better experience. Thank you all!!

The finishing and furnishings were of a very high standard and beautifully done. The room was lovely. The room was reasonably priced.

There were fishermen parking and getting changed outside our window at times. The kitchen units didn’t close properly. The restaurant staff were sometimes a little earnest and overbearing - a Michelin star doesn’t require this. The food and wine list were good but overpriced - I have been to better Michelin star restaurants for quite a bit less money.

This beautiful property was such a pleasure to stay at. The food is a magnificent work of art and the staff is exceptional. Truly a gem in Norway. Everything about the property is peaceful and inviting. We loved it so much we stayed an extra night!

The hotel is located in an early 19th century property, which has been completely restored. It offers great comfort and a very pleasant and peaceful environment. The garden and river views are beautiful. In addition to the excellent breakfast, I recommend having dinner at the hotel's restaurant.

Location is not the best. The hotel is about 15 minutes by taxi from the airport and in the opposite direction to the city

Loved the property, beds and pillows, food and hospitality.

No one told us that we could not go to the water (river) and a manager yelled at us when we walked there.

The most amazing place, set within a gorgeous garden, the food is just breathtaking and the staff extremely nice. The perfect getaway from any hustle.

Beautiful location, well kept and very clean. Great food, lovely host.

Would have loved a Spa facility. That would make it a 10 out of 10.
