Fjærland Fjordstove Hotell - Huseby Hotelldrift As

The hotel boasts a delicious vegan breakfast, friendly staff, modern Danish furnishings, and stunning fjord views. However, the location in a small village might not suit everyone.

Undoubtedly a charming little hotel, and the staff was lovely. But as someone else said, this is a two star with 4 star prices and attitude. The food was appallingly bad; the tiny tiny salmon starter had clearly been prepared hours before as evidenced by the slight crust that forms on prepared food, for main, overcooked duck in a nuclear coloured, sickly sweet orange sauce accompanied by half a reheated bland baked potato, (it’s really hard to cook a potato badly) all pre prepared with no love, just assembled and reheated. A set menu with no other options; I asked if I might have a salad, the response was akin to what Oliver Twist got when he asked for “more”. The rooms are beyond tiny, with no proper curtains to block out the nighttime light of Scandinavian summers. They give you earplugs because I suppose they know one can hear all the guests in the other rooms. The fjord it sits on is easily the dirtiest I’ve seen through our travels of this spectacular country. They were kind enough to give us a discount on the dreadful meal but we’d rather have had a decent meal and happily paid for it. I think I’ve had better meals on planes😔 (the breakfast was good, I’ll concede). It feels like the hosts think it’s a privilege for guests to stay with them. Newsflash: that’s not how hospitality works. There are plenty of charming hotels throughout the world who actually make an effort for their guests. Here it just feels like they’re milking guests for every penny they can get out of them. If only we’d known. The high ratings on TA in my opinion are utterly misleading. Fortunately we only spent o e night.
