The location is very close to the fjord cruise and Flam Railway starting points. The communal areas were nice but the room was tired with a small double bed. No choice of bedding the heavy duvet was far too hot even with the window open (in March).

Staff couldn't have been friendlier. Snow and slush meant we had to walk through 5cm deep water/slush to get to the hotel from the railway and the fjord terminal. But food for dinner and breaksfat was excellent

Great room with a view over the village. Unfortunately being January and -3° we were unable to sit out and make the most of it. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful, our evening meal in the restaurant was outstanding. Breakfast buffet was probably the best we have ever had.
