Lock in a great price for Fretheim Hotel – rated 8.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

The location was perfect, observation tower was nice. Good breakfast, plenty of choices.

Donna, United States of America

Excellent breakfast buffet, with wide choice of food. Very good coffee. Comfortable seating with a great view of the harbor area. Friendly and attentive staff. Our hotel room was spotlessly clean -- a real plus.

Revjc, United States of America

Not many choices in Flam but this one is definitely beyond my expectation Very big and old style room (in a good way) compaed with other hotels I've stayed in Norway Very friendly staff helped us find the local bus stations and restaurants; he actually helped double checked the timetable to make sure we can catch the right bus Very good dinner buffet at the hotel restaurant

Yiwen, Hong Kong

The breakfast buffet offered a lot of variety and great local foods. We also had dinner, and that buffet was also excellent.

M, Switzerland

Hotel is full of charm. Rooms are large, well furnished and comfortable. Location couldn’t be better.

Ming23, Hong Kong

Hotel is elegant and comfortable. A bit pricy, but the memorable experience is well worth it. We stayed in late September, end of tourist season, not crowded. The hotel surrounding is very beautiful.

Mk, United States of America

Alice, Brazil

We had such amazing stay at hotel. Staff were so nice and the view.......... Oh my goodness. It was unforgetable. 100% recomendad .

Hsien, Costa Rica

We arrived early and as our room was ready we enjoyed an early check in. We had a buffet dinner which was delicious but as the restaurant closes at 9 they start taking the food away even when you are eating. Breakfast was also great!

Expensive place to stay at, but it is to be expected of a 4 star hotel in Norway.
Very welcoming rooms. Comfortable beds. Spacious bathroom and toilet. Amazing breakfast. Friendly staff. Excellent beautiful scenic location, conveniently at the harbour and near the train station. Perfect for romantic get away for couples. We were able to check-in earlier than the official usual time, since it was low season.

All good
My room was a simple one - nothing fancy, but a nice view. Check-in put me close to elevator, which I’d requested. The hotel’s buffet breakfast is amazing - caviar, salmon, etc. (PLus good old scrambled eggs and bacon if you are not feeling adventurous). I also had a light (and expensive) dinner - just a soup, wine and dessert (around $50) but it was quite good and waiter very attentive

As the hotel has been around for a while the standard rooms are rather old. Perhaps that’s the ambience the hotel wishes to provide.
The location of the hotel, right at the pier and Flåm train station facilitates travelling and taking tours in the region. The breakfast and restaurant are very good and food was great.

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Dinner was fabulous!! One of the best meals we’ve had in a long time. The hotel also has free laundry facilities ( with laundry powder provided) and tea/ coffee facilities in the room. This hotel was at the top end of our budget but well worth the extra.
