Nice hotel, need some small fixes.
Nice hotel. Good feel. Very good buffet. Negatives: received the keys 30 min after check in. It smelled chlorine from the cleaning. The air ventilation in the room was not good. And the pool was very cold.

Peaceful
Had a peaceful and relaxing stay on this comfortable hotel with my wife and some friends. A great bed, calm environment, nice staff and a great breakfast (I ate too much ). Think that this hotel deserves 4 stars and not only 3. Enjoy your stay. I'll be back 😊

Helt greit, hyggelige ansatte
Helt greit hotell, ok standard, men noe slitt. Kan trenge en liten oppgradering her og der. Resepsjonen var hyggelige. Skulle gjerne hatt en vannkoker på rommet. Frokosten var bra. Glutenfri mat tilgjengelig.

A great place to stay
All though the hotel has many rooms, the atomsphere and cosy wibe are truly there. Just love the original part of the hotel and there are many places and corners where one can sit and relax and just look at all the beautiful items. In front of the hotel (on the other side of the street) there is a green area where children can play or go swimming. I really hope that I can come back.

In this unique hotel, you will find yourself in a wonderful setting. You can enjoy a cup of coffee on the terrace, enjoying the stunning views, or eat a great meal in the magnificent restaurant. Nothing disturbed my good night's sleep in a comfortable bed, and the fresh, cool air flowing in from the open windows.
