First, the location is beautiful. The hotel has that old time feel where you can imagine wealthy Edwardian ladies visiting the hotel and feeling very superior. The dining room looks out over a lawn and lake that just adds to this feeling. The town surrounding it is cute (with a great bakery/chocolate shop) and there's some hiking trails that are beautiful. The breakfast is decent. Not the best we've had in Norway but certainly not the worst. The rooms are LARGE. At least, our family room was. Huge floor plan with plenty of room for five people to stretch out. Now for the bad: The Edwardian feel continues into the elevator which is slow and small. It's easier to just take the stairs. There's often linen carts in the hallways -- I guess there's few places to store them. The bed was CREAKY. Like, if I moved the slightest bit, it groaned as if it were about to collapse. I didn't get good sleep because of it. And I was in the ”master bed.” The other beds weren't as loud and my kids didn't complain about their comfort but they were also severely jet lagged. I'd suggest you skip dinner here but there's just not many other places to eat either. We sat and then learned it was a buffet. Ok, fine. A buffet that cost roughly $65 a person. Yikes. And the buffet was pretty good but not that value...not even in Norway. Would I come back? Yes. The views in the area are great. But I'd really look elsewhere to eat.
