The hotel offers a unique outdoor lap pool with a stunning fjord view, although some rooms overlook a tour bus parking lot with mountains in the background. The service provided by the fantastic staff, especially at night under the stars with the fjord background, was consistently welcoming and helpful. The location, while facing the roadway side, was still amazing and fancy with heated pool-side beds and close proximity to the Hardinger Fjord cruise route. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with a confusing start but ultimately offering amazing options. Overall, a memorable stay with some minor drawbacks.
