I would have preferred if you had told me that you were doing construction everywhere before I booked TWO rooms for 4 adults. Noisy flapping white tarps and ZERO views from any of the windows of BOTH rooms I rented.

it is a great property, but while the advertisement said a restrauant, it was not working and a big problem to go down the steep hill to town which did not have any great restrauants.

Nice place.

Nice views of the area. Hotel was nice and good breakfast. Be aware that if yiu have alot of luggage that you can not drive the car to reception. So you will need to carry your baggage from the car park. No problem fir myself but may cause issues to ither people.

Semester i Norge

Ett annorlunda hotell beläget i en gammal borg! Man kan verkligen känna historiens vingslag! Mycket trevlig personal, god mat och dryck. Rummet var väldigt litet med skador på väggarna, men rent och snyggt. Vi hade problem med att hitta parkering, reception och hotell. Borde vara bättre skyltat och mer information i bokningsbekräftelsen.

Why the glass box?

Bra opphold på et meget spesielt hotell. Merkelige glassbokser utgjør veggene til badet. Usikker på om jeg liker de, spesielt i et sånnt gammelt og koselig bygg.
