Wonderful hotel and excellent staff. The breakfast was amazing! It is very central to everything and close to the main train station.

This is THE PLACE to stay in Flam. It was amazing and so beautifully decorated. Their breakfast buffet was absolutely amazing! I'm sure their dinner buffet (675K is about $67US p/p or $100CAN) which is a stiff price to pay if you're not that hungry, but I will say we could see lobster and a plethora of other seafood as a choice among many other food stations at the buffet, so I'm sure it was amazing. All of Flam seems to 'roll up their sidewalks" at 6pm, so I wish the hotel could have offered a less expensive meal option. (Perhaps they did and I just didn't know about it). It is definitely and nicest and best place to stay in Flam and I would do it again, no problem.

This hotel is a bit scary (for us older folks) as it appears at first glance there is graffiti everywhere! There were pictures in the lobby and each door had graffiti art done by a well known Oslo artist. Upon entering the room it was clean and nicely maintained with THE MOST amazing view looking down a fjord. Since we arrived around dinner time and everything was closed they did offer us dinner, which was pizza or pizza. Very nicely made. Included breakfast was yogourt + cereal but we were offered bacon and eggs which we did not realize was not part of the 'included breakfast'. (our mistake). I was looking for fresh fruit with breakfast and there was none, as was explained to me that there are supply chain issues being in Vadheim (aka, the middle of nowhere). It's owned by a lovely couple who are in the midst of trying to upgrade the hotel (new carpeting was coming and they were planning a complete re-do in the coming years). The bus depot is also right outside their front door, so that couldn't have been easier to continue our trip.

This was ok, but it took 1.5 hrs. It was 0 .5hr to get there and 0.5hr to get back to you only get to spend 0.5hrs there. Buses are clean and comfortable. The bus driver simply drove and did not include any commentary along the way.

This would be top of my list to do in Flam! You got right down into the fjord and up close and personal with the waterfalls. It was just awesome. They fit you out with proper gear, including googles. The guide was so entertaining and informative too!

Our guide Stig was amazing. He shared local and personal stories, history, insights. We toured on one of the coldest days in Oslo in 30 years. Stig brought hand and foot warmers for us and kept us moving so we could get warm!

Due to weather, we had to chase the lights rather than go to the outfitter's home base. Trina (our guide) was great - very enthusiastic and clearly has a lot of experience chasing the auroras. We had to drive to within 20 minutes of the Finland border, which meant a 2+ hour drive in each direction. We didn't get back to hotel until after 2 am, which was about an hour later than expected (and rough since we had an early morning flight to Bergen!)

Awesome tour and we even had good weather so we got to see the fjords!

Our guide John was very knowledgeable about the area and walked us everywhere in under 3 hours! Lots of hills! Great way to get oriented in the city.

We had to go to an alternate location due to bad weather, but the guide was knowledgeable, friendly and put safety first always. It was a good activity to be outside and active.

Nothing to see in the dark. Food was unremarkable. People (travelers) were not particularly friendly or encouraged to mingle/get to know each other.

This tour on a sunny day would be amazing. We had a gray/cloud/rainy day so we had to be inside most of the time. Kenneth, the captain, was great. We got a real sense of his love of being on the water. The small group enabled us to get to know other people which was nice. Hot tub was definitely a highlight. Others jumped into the cold arctic water (we did not, but might have if the weather was nicer!)

This is a great metropolitan hotel.

We loved staying in a the 17 th century building with all the architecture that goes along with this hotel.

This hotel has an extensive Breakfast. The most selection of the five hotels we started in during this trip

Stig was fantastic. He fit our walk into our interest and covered a lot of the city. He went out of the way to go beyond his time with us . We appreciated his history knowledge

Wilde was fantastic. It was great to gain her knowledge of Bergen and discuss current issues of life in Norway, from political in sight to the current music scene . This was well worth while even though it poured through out our walk Wilde kept our interest and spirits up the whole time.

This is a MUST DO for all interested. The cruise was a great intro to the following hike to the rock. And at the end it was great to get a bus ride to our hotel . Not to mention the longest tunnel experience was one for the bucket list .
