Exceptional Hotels

The selected Hotels were incredible - all of them. They were all at good locations, easy to walk to and from train, bus, ferry locations and easy to walk to other arranged excursions and centrally located near other attractions, restaurants and transportation, Thank you for considering my interests.
The arranged excursions were appropriate for each of the cities where I stayed.
Of particular note was the Sanden Pensonjat in Laerdal. The room was very nice, the host was very gracious, the breakfast was great and the quiet location was only 75 m from the bus stop. The small town did not have many amenities but was very enjoyable and suitable for overnight.
Also, to note, the taxi from the Ferry Terminal outside Stavanger was very expensive ($689 NOK), but it was appropriate for me since I was tired from the ferry and it was raining. There was a public bus that most travelers took to the city but it left later and only went as far at the bus terminal, so I would have had to walk in the rain or take a taxi to the hotel, So, your itinerary suggested the taxi from the Ferry Terminal to the hotel and that was the right choice for me, Thanks
Also, to note, The weather in Tromso was cold. I was prepared because I checked the weather conditions and brought warm clothes and rain gear (I have travelled the Canadian North!). I know the weather is not your responsibility but a advance notice of possible weather might be helpful to other travelers.
Thanks for everything, I am already planning another trip with KimKim

Hotel Reviews
Very good location, permitted early check in, friendly and helpful staff. Rooms a bit small.
Great room with large windows and overlooking harbour
Very gracious host met me on my way from the bus station and showed me to my room in the Pensjonat,. The bus station was about 75 m from the Pensjonat. The breakfast was superb. The restaurant suggestion for dinner was great. The room was nicely decorated and the bedding was wonderful.
Room with lots of natural light
Activity Reviews
Easy to find starting point, good alternatives for weather. It was raining during some parts of the trip and there were locations on board to sit out of the rain, or to sit in the sun and out of the wind,
|This trip was very very crowded and by the time I boarded there was very limited seating. There was some confusion about a second boat that I was waiting for but a the last minute it did not go and every one had to board the first boat.Ge
Very very good, even though it was raining and there was no sun.
Good information local sea life
Dress warm
Hi Adele!

Sorry to hear that you had to bear so much rain but I will keep it in mind to remind people to check the weather forecast and to dress in layers as the weather in Norway can be quite unpredictable!
