The heater in our room didn’t work.

It was clean and located well for our purposes. The room was bigger than many Norwegian hotels. The breakfast was excellent. There were chargers available for our car.

You’re paying for the location and the fact that it’s a popular and accessible tourist destination. It is overpriced for the room, but it is a good overnight during the Norway in a nutshell tour. There wasn’t a closet in the room, just a few hooks and three hangers by the door. Also the bathroom was tiny.

The room is large by European standards, and the kitchen has everything we needed to cook a basic meal. There’s a small grocery store within walking distance, and the hotel itself has three restaurants. Gudvagen is very small but everything you need for a short stay is nearby. I don’t think there was AC, but we didn’t need it. The breakfast is held in the main dining room with skylights and overlooking the fjord.

We were expecting the “toiletries included” to include at least shampoo. Instead there was only liquid hand wash in the shower. Some of the staff were not very friendly (but some were great). Considering the price, these were unexpected disappointments. For comparison, we also stayed in Flåm, for a similar price, with impeccable service and amenities.

Clean, comfortable, well-located. Nice beds and shower.

Great location at end of the beautiful fjord.

The hotel rooms are up the road from Reception. Our room was some 400m away. We were lucky that the weather was kind but I am not sure what I would have felt the same if it was raining or worse.

The hotel is a good option, rather than staying in Flam. We travelled both ways by ferry which was great, but there is also an issue excellent bus available. Our room was a newly renovated studio with an excellent bathroom. We had half board and the meals were acceptable.

All was great.

Incredible location, at the end of the Fjord, just next to pier and waterfront. Excellent restaurant for dinner and a buffet breakfast on offer for breakfast. Room was very clean and had all amenities one could really hope for. Fantastic cafe/bakery too. Restaurants on offer are three and serve meat, seafood and pizza. They shut at time of writing at 9pm.

I stayed in one of the property's apartments. It was comfortable and clean. Just a little far from the breakfast room, but I was satisfied because everything I had booked was actually there during my stay. Breakfast is truly rich in dishes, foods and drinks.

Asked for Fjord view and was double booked. Didn’t get the room I hoped for.

Spacious rustic space with several restaurant /cafe choices allowing all budgets. Breakfast provided with beautiful view . Very tranquil when all the tourist gone for evening .

Just a few nitpicky things… first, the featured photos with the skylight looking up at the fjord walls with Viking themed rooms are few & far between. There’s a good chance that’s not your property. The breakfast buffet was a giant disappointment by European standards. There were few items to chose from, the coffee was like gas station coffee & it was shoehorned into a space that leads to guests tripping into one another.

Location, Location, Location! The restaurant food was outstanding (seafood restaurant outside the main lobby area). The staff was very friendly.

The bathroom was poorly ventilated and lacked hair conditioner. Breakfast was disappointing compared to everywhere else we have stayed. Plastic egg cups and wooden spoons to eat the eggs. Sad apples and tinned fruit cocktail. Expensive for what was offered.

our room was clean and well equipped. The location was really a ferry terminal at the end of the fjord; very busy with people getting on and off boats.

The rooms were very small. During the summer rooms can get very hot and there is no AC. Some rooms have a partially open ceiling which is likely great during the winter. However, during the summer there is light most of the night and makes it difficult to sleep. It also makes the rooms hotter. Breakfast was average. Staff was not friendly

Beautiful location, beautiful views. Easy access to hikes and activities

The bathroom could use a corner shelf for personal toiletries and a vent.

The location was excellent for kayaking and hiking. The location is accessible by boat bus and car.

Hotel lobby was not easy to find. Our room was a bit of a walk from the hotel lobby, which wasn’t great with all our bags. Pretty pricey! Be aware that most rooms are not a Viking themed room, and those that are have little privacy from all the tourists milling about the area.

Stunning location. Friendly staff. Food (dinner and breakfast) was decent. Worth the splurge for a unique location.

It was quite touristy and crowded at.times

The scenery was lovely. The shower was fantastic

Very rustic facility. But the town is quite remote, so this is probably as good as other hotels in town..

Nice view. Breakfast included. Quiet village.

Some vikings rooms are very close to the touristic buses stop and parking and it's noisy and a lot of people around. Upper window does not have curtains and it's a lot of light during June & July in nights

Wonderful fjord around, clean large room

Feel like it was a little pricey for what it was. But it being one of few hotels in Gudvangen then you don’t really have much choice unless you want budget!

The glass roof was amazing. The location was beautiful and the bed was comfy and bathroom clean spacious. The breakfast was delicious! Viking bed nice touch!
