Veredkagen Israel

It is an old school hotel with the charm, but modernized where it counts. The staff were lovely, professional and helpful. The location is perfect and my room was wonderful with a view if the fjord.

Elizabeth United States of America

Staff very helpful. Location was right in the middle of everything we wanted to do. Nice quiet rooms and superb breakfast.

Rich United States of America

Perfect Location to stay in Flam. Easily accessible to the Flansbana and Fjord of the future Cruise. The hotel is clean, and staff friendly. Beautiful views from my back yard seating.

Wayne United States of America

Piyush India

Great location with views of the valley and fjord, wide range of room choices. Staff was very friendly and helpful, and handled the weekend "rush" nicely. Older hotel with history, but nicely maintained and comfortable, dinner and breakfast were good, dinner a bit pricey but that's understandable.

Gary United States of America

The hotel has beautiful communal areas, lobby and the restaurant, however, the rooms are a bit austere. It’s perfect for a one night stay but probably not so much for longer stays. There’s no option to have drinks or lunch at the hotel during the day and there’s really nowhere else in Flåm to do this either. The nature, however, is breathtaking and the hotel interior is charming. I do recommend this hotel for a short stay.

Jovana Serbia

Beautiful property, very close to the train station. The food and staff in the restaurant were exceptional.

Maryna United Arab Emirates

The location is great and convenient, the room view is so nice to see the mountains.
