Kviknes Hotel  

We stayed in 4 hotels during our trip and this was the one we enjoyed the most. The setting, the staff, the design and decor of the hotel were wonderful We appreciated and enjoyed a small tour of the public rooms and artwork by one of the staff. Our room was one with a view which was breathtaking. Our room was quiet and the beds were comfortable. The complimentary breakfast included hot and cold dishes and was great. The expensive buffet in the dining room in the evening offered a large and tasty variety. We found the prices of restaurant food in Norway to be quite expensive and this was no exception.

It would be nice to have the setup for coffee and tea in the room.

We stayed in the modern section of the hotel in a standard room with a fabulous view of the Fjord. Breakfast was in the historical part of the hotel which has been well perserved and we were fortunate enough to have a completely sunny day with coffee on the veranda and the breathtaking views of the Fjord. Four of us had an excellent casual dinner in the lobby bar area. Both evening and morning walks along the water near the hotel were very beautiful and peaceful. The hotel is located very near the ferry terminal which made easy access for the ferry to the Glacier and then back connecting with the express ferry to Bergen. This was an excellent hotel run by very professional staff.

Great location - great hotel

The food was surprisingly good. Plentiful, great choice, fresh and tasty. The evening buffet beats most hotels I've stayed at (and I've been to many...). Like many other things in Norway the Buffet was expensive but really worth the money.

The reception staff was quite poor and lacked knowledge of tours in the area. One very important point: The hotel caters to large groups of tourists. We could not escape the feeling that those groups got the better view rooms and enjoyed dramatically lower prices. One can understand the price advantage but the fact they got the better view rooms was frustrating. Bookings.com should put pressure on hotels to avoid such situations!

The hotel is located in a paradise. Beautiful

Personal not always helpful. Restaurant bar closed at 10 pm. We arrived from one excursion just 5 min before 10. We asked for something to eat, just a sanwich. But answer from service was a big no.

location is best, the staff is best, the view is best,

the price is very high.

The views are beautiful, one of the most beautiful place I have ever stayed in.

Beautiful hotel, lovely setting. Historic furniture and artifacts well worth seeing. We took lots of pictures, both inside and outside. Fine view of fjord from balcony of 7th floor room. Breakfast buffet is excellent. Balestrand is one of the most picturesque towns I've seen, and the Kviknes is the centerpiece -- it looks good even from the hiking trails up above the town. We're very glad we chose to stay at the Kviknes.

Dinner in the main dining room is a bit expensive.

Classic hotel with great views

God mat og service, flott beliggenhet.

Den gamle delen av hotellet.

At kelneren som hadde vårt bord I restauranten ikke snakket norsk og var dårligere I engelsk enn det vi selv er.Hun sa videre at vi ikke kunne få den faste menyen fordi kjøkkenet hadde mye å gjøre.Vi reserverte bord I resepsjonen bare en halv time før uten å få noen slik beskjed. Imidlertid ordnet hovmester opp på en utmerket måte og vi fikk maten vi skulle.Nydelig mat!

fantastische locatie en dorp, mooi historisch gebouw

beddenhuis achter het historische gebouw had iets meer in stijl mogen zijn....

Vergane glorie waarvan enkel de schitterende locatie overblijft. Voor de rest was men destijds nog beter af in een hotel uit de sovjettijd.

Muy poco renovado. Mantenimiento defectuoso. Su prestigio únicamente es achacable solo a su historia
