It was simple, very comfortable, had everything we wanted for a ski trip day after to Gaustatoppen, or for Ice climbing in the area. The price is fair.

Behrang Norway

It was clean and everything that we expected for the price

Kevin United Kingdom

Located very close to supermarket, very convenient.

Kieren United Kingdom

My 5th stay at Rjukan Gjestegaard, so I know the place fairy well. Good location. Clean room with a good bed. Good breakfast with fresh baked bread.

Pasto64 Norway

Really nice place. Everything was clean and the personnel was kind. Toilets and showers were good.

Anders Denmark

The diner at the restaurant was incredible using fresh products from the surroundings, beautifully presented and served by very kind waiters. The history of the building is great to be told to understand the concept as well as the view overlooking the valley. Great scenery to wake up

Romain France

Very comfy beds, great showers, excellent value for money. Large room to dry tent and ski equipment was very efficient and useful. Lounge area with tea/coffee. Superb location in the centre of Rjukan only 100m from bus stop to Oslo and free bus to Krossobanen.

Katherine United Kingdom

Nice room with own sink (toilet and shower are shared and in the corridor). Big living room with coaches to rest and guest kitchen well equipped in the next building.

Jesus Sweden

Location in centre of town was great. Parking was more than adequate. Rooms very clean and well kept.

Paul United Kingdom

Good place to stay who need just to overnight. Near the center. Very clean.
