Staying at this hotel was a delightful experience overall. The rooms in the 'new' annex, which the welcoming receptionist praised as the best in the hotel, were impeccably clean and well-maintained, boasting incredibly comfortable beds and amazing showers. The ambiance felt like stepping into an Ibsen play, with elegant chandeliers, cozy wood fires, intricate lace, antique wooden furnishings that transported me to another era.

My stay at the hotel was mixed. The room in the new building was not so nice and not very clean, but it had a small dormer window with great fjord views. On the bright side, the room was large and authentically restored, filled with high-quality amenities. It suited the superb weather we had perfectly.
