D Norway

I liked the big clean elegant room with excellent view and facilities Breakfast facilities where good and roomy and inviting with candles on tables. Service minded and attentive crew

Bjarte Norway

Receptionists are very kind and professional. The area is magnificent, silence and relax are everywhere.

Globetrotterterrone Norway

Breakfast. Possibility of having 2 extra beds for the kids

Wilbert Norway

Hotel is in a dedicated (new) block to the west of the original fortress (so not part of it). Rooms facing the fjord have great views, and breakfast and l'Occitane toiletries were a nice surprise. The island itself is fascinating - easy to get to by boat (hourly) and small enough to get around in a couple of hours, though tours take longer.

Christopher United Kingdom

- Very good location; - Beautiful view from the room; - Nice room; - Good breakfast;

Diego Norway

Nice place, previously a fortress, in an island. It is accessible by boat only. Rooms are large and comfortable, with the essential plus a coffee machine. Having reserved rooms with sea view, there are some binoculars of surprising good quality available. The hotel is not in one single building. In our case, we had to walk some 150 meters from the reception till the building with the rooms. It is not a problem. Great communication through booking prior arrival and very friendly staff. The breakfast was good, with gluten free bread available upon request.

Jorge Switzerland

The personnel was very kind and helpful, diversified breakfast, nice view from the room
