This is a remote location close to hiking trails and waterfalls. It is very important to have a car, as it is not close to the cities. However, the staff are very friendly and helpful, the food is good, and the rooms comfortable. There are books to read and games to play.
This is a very special hotel up in the mountains. They view is spectacular, the place is spotless, the beds are very comfortable, the staff is super friendly and helpful, and the food is excellent. We loved staring out at the mountains while enjoying the breakfast buffet and then ending the day with a game in the lounge over dessert. It’s a great midway point between places to go in western Norway, like Briksdalbreen and Geiranger. There are also a number of small towns along the way if you drive in from Ålesund airport, where it was fun to walk around and stop for a pastry. We loved the Videseter and would definitely stay here again.
You stay here for the view and staff. Someone reviewed that the rooms were utilitarian, that is a good description. Food was disappointing for dinner and breakfast.
The view of the valley is stunning. The rooms are utilitarian and very clean. The breakfast is truly excellent and by comparison, the dinner was terrible and expensive. We rented the sauna and it was wonderful! There are 2 roads that lead to the Videseter and on arrival, Google Maps took us through a one lane, mountain road that was closed at the top! Would have been nice if the hotel had mentioned not to take the closed road. A quick message after we booked would have prevented a lot of stress. No EV chargers on site, but they plan to fix that soon.
We stayed two nights during in late June. The views were just breathtaking!! Staff was very friendly and helpful. This is a hotel with lots of history. Highly recommended.
I booked 2 extra nights because I liked the place so much, and if I could I would have stayed even longer. It is pretty close to some amazing places like: Geiranger, Jostedals Glacier, Reinheimer National park, scenic route 258, scenic route 55, and so much more. The bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was really good. The owners are super nice.

Fantastic views, facilities are basic. Easy parking and quiet. Staff very helpful
Our stay was last minute decision so we weren't sure if we could get a room. The staff were great at sorting out a room (with a view of the valley) highly recommend the staff and the food was excellent.
This has to be one of the best hidden gems in Norway. The views are absolutely stunning, with a beautiful waterfall lookout and rooftop terrace. The hotel itself has a wonderful “old feel”. It is dated, but oozing history and well maintained. The rooms were very comfortable and very large, we easily fit our family of 4 in one of the family rooms. The breakfast was excellent and you could enjoy your coffee with magnificent views. Would highly recommend this place, especially for the views and wonderful old charm feel.
It was a magical experience, truly a hidden gem! We have explored a ton of Norway on this trip but our short time at Hotel Videseter was a highlight. Great food, friendly staff and breathtaking views. Highly recommended.
Nice place, good breakfast and friendly staff. Recommended.

Breathtaking Views , We’ll Be Back!
Hello, Thank you for a lovely stay at Hotel Videseter.
The location is absolutely magical, with stunning views and breathtaking nature all around. While the standard of the hotel is quite simple, the charm of the place and its unique setting made our stay very special. We would definitely like to return in the future.
The view was incredible and the staff were great. The rooms are old but comfortable. The breakfast foods were all cold even the normally hot ones. The games were fun for the family. The waterfall was fantastic!
My stay at this hotel couldn't have gone better. The staff was extremely helpful and courteous. The location was out of this world. The views out our hotel window were world class. I would definitely recommend this hotel to family and friends.
