"Iconic historic hotel..great views & grounds. "

"This family owned hotel on the fjord was a great place to stay. It had a good evening meal and breakfast. Very friendly staff and owners. We had a view room which was awesome."

"Five stars is not enough for the stone cabin in Ortnevik! The one bedroom cabin is so charming. The kitchen has everything you will need to prepare meals and the bed is comfortable. The property is incredibly beautiful and there are interesting hikes right from the cabin. Just a quick walk away you’ll find an amazing wood sculpture garden that will blow your mind. Eldar was very helpful with check in and with advice on where to hike and walk. The small store in town has limited hours but a surprising amount of supplies for a small place. But if you have the option it is likely best to grocery shop in a larger town before arrival. At the cabin I felt I could be away from it all and see the real Norway. Thank you Eldar for sharing your wonderful property with us"

"We had an amazing time !!! Vanessa was a great help and very helpful with anything we needed . Vanessa is an asset to your hotel . Your food was delicious and service was perfect . Definitely coming back "

"Staying in this incredible home in Finnabotn was the highlight of our Norway vacation. This "secret" branch of the Sognefjord offers a truly authentic, off-the-grid experience. There is no road access so we rented a boat—the only way to get here—through Vik Adventures and the journey itself was part of the adventure, a scenic 25 to 45-minute ride on the fjord from Vikøyri, depending on conditions.The home itself is a quiet, rustic retreat with some modern updates, preserved to maintain its historical features as part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The scenery is absolutely stunning, with enormous waterfalls serving as a backdrop. We spent our time exploring the area, hiking to the top of the mountain where the waterfalls begin, and enjoying the wild berries. We boated to Balestrand for dinner one night. Every evening, we'd sit on the dock listening to the sounds of the falls. This is a perfect escape for anyone looking for an authentic, off-the-beaten-path experience. NOTE: you need to pack your groceries, as there are no stores nearby!"

"Lovely hotel, great location. Only minor complaint is that the room was a bit on the warm side and despite several attempts to change the thermostat we couldn’t get it to cool down. Otherwise happy to recommend"

"Good view from the room."

"Nestled in the hills surrounded by lush greenery, the Alver Hotel was our base for kayaking in the spectacular fjords. We stayed in an updated cabin that was well equipped with the basic necessities, including an in unit washer and dryer. Our stay includes a delicious breakfast buffet each morning. If possible I would give a sixth star for the friendly staff who went the extra mile to make our stay pleasant and memorable."

"This is a lovely spot.  The cabin is set into the side of a ridge with forest at the back.  The front wall of windows and deck look out about a kilometer, over fields and the village, to the Sognefjord.  During our stay with our teenaged granddaughter in early June, the wildflowers were everywhere, and the forest was  a misty J.R.R. Tolkien landscape of thick moss, crags, rocks, crevices and rivulets.  Great hiking out the door in every direction, and, even on a drizzly day, the anticipation of a cozy return.  The heated floors are delightful.  Much thought went into the cabin's layout, with touches including carvings, a gnarly stump supporting the kitchen counter, and stairs to the loft hewn out of a single log.Ortnevik is off the beaten path, at the end of a narrow road from Bjordal to the west.  That is an appealing reason to visit this part of Hoyanger.  But, the visitor should realize that ferries are more limited on the weekend, the small local store is often closed, and no nearby cafes.  So, a good idea to pick up supplies on the way and double check the ferry schedule.   Our time here was the highlight of our trip to Norway."
