We were 2 girls traveling. The rooms are different. What we did not like was the sky window, which wakes you up at the crack of dawn and there is no way to shut it down. Also the food options for vegetarian are almost, non-existent. The location of the hotel is fantastic!!

We booked this hotel based on the viking decorated rooms. We were disappointed because we received a cabin which was not furnished viking style at all. I guess request one if that is what you are staying there for. Regardless, it was fun to stay in for one night. We had a cabin on the end which was quiet and... More

We booked through the Norway in a Nutschell package. Great excursion if short of time or a first timer in Norway This location is On one of the ends of a tributary of one of the largest fjords. Where the ferry from Flam stops. Nice location to rest, have good food, and recharge before continuing to travel Norway. You could... More

We stayed here during our norway in a nutshell tour (fantastic) and gudvangen in a nutshell  is definately not fantastic. We arrived from flam on the ferry and were really disappointed that the fjordtell was more like a service area than a destination, a car park with accommodation. The accommodation was either one of 12 Viking rooms which have roof windows... More

I'd say it's worth to stay in Fjordhotell-marvelous view of gorgerous mountains and Fjord-just amazing impressions! VIking camp in the summer is a nice attraction for tourists as well as for real Vikings (:

My family stayed here for one night in July 2008. The main hotel building is a very odd circular shape: the souvenir shop, hotel reception, canteen style restaurant and dining room are all in the same space, very cramped and quite hideous. Our hotel room was nothing like the picture displayed on the hotel website and we had to walk... More

As hotels go this one is very difficult to compare with others. The hotel has a number of unique features. We were in Room 6 in a circular grass roofed building. The furnishings were basic but exemplified local craftsmenship with detailed Viking motif wood carvings. There was beautiful piped music into the room and a large skylight which gave a... More

This hotel is situated at the end of a most beautiful fjord and can be reached by boat and road. Nearby is the longest road tunnel (over 25kms) and fjord in the world. All very picturesque but miles from anywhere. Only one restaurant and gift shop in the area. The hotel is a single story building with a grass covered... More

The Gudvangen Fjordtell as a structure is thoroughly well described in another review here, so I will refrain from repetition. However, what bears repeating is that the town of Gudvangen is very remote feeling. It takes only minutes by car to get to restaurants, shopping, and entertainment, but when you are in Gudvangen, it's all about communing with nature. The... More

Really, you've nothing to do there if you like night life or so. Otherwise, it's definitely a place to visit. Feel yourself a hobbit living in a room with a grass roof. We've had a room with waterfall view - absolutely marvelous. If you want to slow down life pace for a while this is the best place to do... More
