Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a delightful stay at the hotel. The rooms were large, modern, and impeccably clean, complemented by a very good breakfast offering. The convenience of snacks at the reception and nearby coffee and muffins made my experience even better, especially on days when I preferred a cozy dinner at the hotel.
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with a bit of a downside of facing the parking lot and an underground entrance. The service was exceptional, going above and beyond to assist us with any queries or requests. The location, while not very close to downtown, provides free parking and is just a short walk to the city center. The dining experience was good with a variety of breakfast options. Overall, a great value for money stay.
The hotel had small but adequate rooms, in a typical European style, located in Vik and Hoff. The service was exceptional, with staff being very friendly and helpful. The location was convenient for tours and an easy walk into town, although slightly out of the main street. The dining experience was lovely, especially the breakfast. Overall, a fresh and new hotel with great value.
The hotel offers modern rooms with essential amenities like a kettle, coffee facilities, and a good-sized TV. The breakfast selection is satisfying, featuring sausage, beans, egg, toast, juice, cereal, and fruit. However, the room floors were disappointingly dirty, unlike the pictures suggest.
The hotel provided us with a great recommendation for our day trip, and we slept well despite the construction noise at night; however, the location is not very convenient for easy access to restaurants. The staff was excellent, helping us organize our activities and showing genuine concern for my wife's disability. The dining experience was super good, offering a variety of options, but improvements could be made. The help-yourself buffet-style breakfast was always a treat, and the facilities were well-maintained.
The hotel has a quiet ambiance but lacks mountain views and feels more like a luxe hostel room than a standard hotel suite. The dining experience offers fresh and varied options. Overall, a decent choice for those seeking tranquility and a different room setup.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were a bit small for my taste, but they were very clean. The service was friendly and professional, addressing all my questions and concerns. The location was decent, near a sports center and restaurants, but slightly far from the city center. The dining experience was lovely with a variety of options. Overall, it was a pleasant stay with some minor drawbacks.
The hotel is conveniently located, offering a good breakfast variety and snacks for convenience. However, the rooms are a bit small with limited ventilation, and the temperature control needs improvement.
The hotel is a great find with its comfortable rooms and fantastic staff. While the room size may be a bit small, the cleanliness is top-notch. The service is friendly and helpful, making the stay enjoyable. The location is convenient with nearby dining options, though a bit far from the city center. The dining experience offers a good breakfast selection, adding value to your stay.
