Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers breathtaking views of the fiord from rooms with big windows, but there are some minor drawbacks. The service is exceptional, highlighted by a warm welcome drink. The location on a farm overlooking a river delta is unique but may not suit everyone. The included dining, especially the gourmet pizzas, is a treat. The facilities are well-maintained, offering a comfortable stay overall.
