Staff xlnt friendly, very helpful about travel questions, very knowledgeable. We liked all the different leisure rooms and 6th floor loft to relax, dinner buffet among the best I’ve had.
Great location. Double occupancy rooms on the 4th floor are really a US sized double bed.fine if you are cuddlers!
Staff is exceptional for a large seasonal hotel.
very old hotel. the restaurant and lobby area were renovated and acceptable. The food in the restaurant was good and reasonable. But the rooms were like old motels from the 70s for the price of a 5 star modern hotel. note that this was the best hotel in Flam area with a prime location. So, this answers why it is so over priced and explains why the owners have no motivation for improvements. They charge for any small requests that are typically granted at other hotels like late checkout fee for over 30minutes stay, and parking fee even though there are plenty of space outside. The only positive thing was that there is a laundry and drying machine on premises.

Beautiful location. Nice historic hotel that would benefit from minor renovations
Unbelievable views in a fairytale town.
I couldn’t recommend this hotel more. Great food, cute room, friendly staff, and the most convenient location to enjoy the wonders that Flam has to offer.
I’d recommend this stay to anyone.
Flam is well-worth a visit!
Amazing location and access to unscheduled and scheduled activities. Ideal location to watch the sunshine on the surrounding mountains while enjoying a refreshing beverage after a day of hiking, biking, zip lining and floating sauna/cold plunge. Centrally located with its own restaurants, and walking distance to several others. Exactly as advertised.
In an amazing location. Very helpful staff, excellent buffet dinner and breakfast.
Hair in bathroom sink is always unsightly.
Beds very soft.
Norway is expensive.
Extremely pleasant hotel with most attentive staff , fjord views to die for and easy access for the Flam train station & Flam Fjord cruise.
Clean rooms and pleasant staff, lovely restaurant which had a great selection of foods for buffet breakfast & evening meals
