This hotel was nice, but a bit further from Vik. The room was nice and well maintained. The food at the “restaurant” was very good, but the atmosphere was a bit odd, as the dining room was also the hotel lounge area and I was the only one eating dinner.

Comfortable stay

Water pressure of the shower head was rather low. Our room was beside the road and we could hear external sound and movement. We had booked a junior suite and parking was included, but this was not conveyed to us. We had parked at a free parking space about 7 minutes away and it was very cold and slippery walking over. Only when we decided to pay and park in the underground garage on the second day that we were informed that complimentary parking was provided with our room type. This could be communicated to us during check in. In addition, the entrance and exit to the garage was very tight. If any traveller decides to park there, will need to bear in mind the space. Other than the above, room was clean and relatively spacious.
