We stayed in the “newer” part which was a disappointment. We had hoped to stay in historic side. Breakfast was wonderful. Beautiful view from out table by the window.

We didn't stay due to the substandard nature of the accommodations. We left after ten minutes. This is the first time we have ever felt the need to leave a place we'd booked.

Take the fast ferry (4 hours) from Bergen and slow down and enjoy the glorious surroundings. Be prepared to relax and enjoy the quiet. We ate our meals and enjoyed cocktails at the Kviknes Hotel. We slept at the Balestrand Hotel and enjoyed the quiet.CColleenUnited States of America - 10Scored 10
Arriving by ferry drops you at the heart of the town.
Arriving by ferry drops you at the heart of the town. Walking south along Kong Beles Veg for about 2 kilometers affords beautiful views of St. Olaf's church, the picturesque valley, the beach, the hills, and several "Swiss-style" charming old houses. A must-see is Balestrand's little beach and the deep, clear pools beside it where I sat for ages soaking up the sound of the water's tranquil lapping on the rocks and watching fish zip around way below the surface of the crystal-clear water. I even caught people swimming and sunning themselves at midday in late September! There were not many dining options post-tourist-season, but I had the soup at the chocolatery called Holmen within the main triangle of town, and though I found it overpriced (compared to prices in Bergen), it was delicious.Jennifer - 10Scored 10

Our family absolutely loved staying at Frydenlund near Balestrand. Everything in the property's information was accurate. Great hosts who helped us when we had some questions, Views are wonderful and several areas in which to relax and enjoy them. Check-in was easy as there was a door code. While we would love to return to this part of Norway we would only do so if we could also stay at Frydenlund.RichardCanada - 10Scored 10
Beautiful surroundings.
Beautiful surroundings. Very fun to travel with a speedboat combined with historical tour. Cider house had delicious food. Highly recommendable. Perfect place for anyone who loves outdoor activities and want to be in a beautiful environment.CecilieNorway - 10Scored 10
Beautiful location and friendly small town.
Beautiful location and friendly small town. Unfortunately it rained quite heavy in September 2019 when we were there so that we couldn't do much biking and hiking as we had anticipated, but there was still enough to do to keep us occupied the day and a half that we spent there. Dinner with a piano concert in the Kviknes Hotel was particularly memorable.

Cute town with a lot packed into a small place.
Cute town with a lot packed into a small place. Walking around town is easy. There are two grocery stores and plenty of restaurants. We went to an English Mass at St Olaf's Church too. If we had arrived earlier in the day we might have had time to fish from the shores of the fjord.AmyUnited States of America

- 8.0Scored 8.0Very GoodRated very good· 276 reviewsWe loved everything about our stay. Our room was lovely, as was our view, even in the rain. We were able to do our laundry. Breakfast was really nice. But our host, Magnar, truly made our stay great! He contacted the car rental for us and even printed maps for the next part of our holiday! The restaurant he recommended was one of the best meals we’ve had. We will be returning for a second stay because we had such a good experience.
KathyUnited States of America - From $180.91 per night8.9Scored 8.9ExcellentRated excellent· 367 reviewsBreakfast was good, eggs and meat to order, plenty of choices. Great coffee, not machine self serve. They provide evening meals and food was delicious and fresh. Staff was excellent, our room was the only one with balcony and large, so pleasant and a wonderful surprise for us. History of the hotel was wonderful—ask for the background when you get there. 70 years in business, still run by the family.JJeanneUnited States of America
- From $317.28 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very GoodRated very good· 385 reviewsGorgeous view! Buffet is excellent and so is the staff at the restaurant. I’d also recommend lunch at the bar. The lounges were elegant and perfect for relaxing with a coffee in the evening. While the room price was expensive, I found the cost of food and drinks to not be overpriced. We had a really nice stay and it’s worthwhile to experience the beauty of this hotel and the surroundings.
JustineUnited States of America - 8.0Scored 8.0Very GoodRated very good· 276 reviewsThe reception was just superb, we haven't met such a friendly and welcoming hotel staff members in a while! I found the shabby chic of the hotel really charming, and all the perks (a game room, guest kitchens, entertainment area) made us feel like at home :) The view requires a separate mention, it's just stunning.
