The hotel is one of the best we visited. The staff, the views, the food, the jacuzzi etc. was AMAZING! I really recommend visiting the three-course-viking dinner aswell where Olé (One of the owners) has a great preformance. The hotel is nicely located allowing you to take daytrips to Geiranger, Valldal and stordal and much more. We cannot recommend this hotel enough!! 5/5 stars.

Everything was exceptional!

“If I could rate it 11 out of 10, I would.” This hotel is truly one of a kind. Everything—from the design to the smallest details—feels thoughtfully created and completely unique. The craftsmanship in the rooms, the locally made furniture, the atmosphere… it’s unlike anything I’ve seen, not just in the area, but anywhere in Europe and UAE. The quality is outstanding. Every corner of the place feels special, and it’s clear that a lot of heart went into building and running it. You can’t compare this to a standard hotel stay—this is an experience. If you choose the Viking experience for dinner, prepare to be surprised. The feeling, the food, the entire setting—it’s something else. The fish dish in particular was incredibly fresh and simply prepared in the best way possible. It lets the flavor speak for itself. The Viking house is truly one of a kind. How can anything compare to that? Olef clearly loves his place and his history. He doesn’t just run the hotel—he lives it. He is a genuine Viking, and it shows in every part of what he’s created here.

Good location in the Geiranger-Alesund area, spacious room, big and comfortable bed, we especially liked the hard mattresses (unique experience in Norway 😊). Nice, big common lounge with free coffee and tea. Jacuzzi was also very good.

For the car charger you have to pay extra (100 NOK) and there is just one charger for non-Teslas and 2 for Teslas. We received several messages, texts, and phones calls inviting to the Viking dinner and we found it a little bit pushy. (We did’t join the dinner.)

The hotel was lovely, the owners and staff were friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble. We had food on both nights, the meals were delicious with explanations of how they were made. We had dinner in the Viking house one evening, it was the "jewel in the crown" for our whole 3 week tour. Breakfast was equally as good, there was plenty of choice with local food on offer. The room was lovely and spacious, with beautiful views from every window. We were fascinated by the swirling clouds around the mountains, we watched them until way past midnight. The beds are really comfortable, the showerroom is large and the shower is good. We hope to return another day

Nothing to dislike.

We were placed in the Stordal suite which was very spacious and nicely decorated. This hotel was small and the people chat in the jacuzzi and at breakfast. Car charging was free (Tesla universal). Easy 1 minute drive up a dirt road from the hwy. Near several sites.

It was warm in the suite and no air conditioning. It could be a problem on hottest days of the year.

Fantastic views from our superb suite which was very spacious. Excellent staff, very helpful. Very good breakfast. Spotlessly clean. Centrally situated, near the fjord.

Dinner was in the Fine Dining style, which is not to everyone’s taste. It is a 3 course set menu. But 11km down the road is a super restaurant serving traditional local food.

A hidden gem of a hotel, tucked away in a peaceful location. The staff are absolutely outstanding and the dinner was brilliant. Breakfast was a well stocked continental buffet with hot fresh eggs and bacon available. The bedroom was immaculate and well presented with a comfortable bed and bedding. Highly recommended!

The turning from the road to the hotel caught me off-guard, it looks like a little gravel track heading into the woods so I went past the first time thinking it couldn't be right, however that little gravel track leads to a hidden gem of a hotel. Make the turn and enjoy!

Great property. Lovely breakfast restaurant and relaxation lounge

Large comfortable rooms but the showers were poor. Underwhelmed by the Viking dinner. The ambience was great. The fish main dish was unseasoned and bland. The panatonne was just whipped cream and the waitress said one batch was different from the other 😕 there was nothing to support a Viking experience except for the location More fruit for the breakfast please

Beautiful hotel in the mountains. The room was clean, cozy, and very comfortable, with a beautiful view of the mountains and the valley below. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We were tired in the evening so did not have dinner at the hotel. But breakfast the next morning was plentiful and delicious. This is a great place to relax and take a breather during an active vacation.

Not really something we didn’t like but more of a watch-out: While the charm of the hotel is in it’s isolation, it also means there are no stores or restaurants nearby. So either plan to eat dinner there or bring food with you before you arrive.

Perfectly clean, spacious, nicely decorated family hotel. Everything is great condition. Beautiful territory. But most important - lovely host Ole, who made us feel really welcomed and organized atmospheric candlelight dinner experience in their “viking” house. To conclude, it’s definitely the best hotel in the area
