Independent Vik hotels

"100% the best option. Choosing to spend a night in Flam (basically a cruise port) or Voss (new built town for sporty types) or Gudvangen, we chose the spectacular scenic tranquility of the Gudvangen Fjordtell and one of their Viking Room. Wow! This was so cool! Skylights let you gaze up at the mountain tops and stars at night. The bed very comfy, the decor made you feel you're in Norway, the shower excellent, cozy temps We arrived from Flam via the Ferry at 16:45, walked 2 minutes to hotel, lovely reception, shop, bar, dining room. Once we checked in, went to have a couple pints & a fish n chips dinner in their great dining room also with skylights everywhere. In the morning the included buffet breakfast was excellent! Had time to enjoy and evening stroll and a morning stroll. 11:40 am we caught the local bus right in front of the hotel for a 50 min ride to the Voss train station. Staff were super friendly and super helpful with everything. 100% this is a great choice!"

"Lovely hotel in a beautiful location. Good breakfast and buffet restaurant for dinner. We enjoyed our 2 night stay in Flåm"

"Room spacious for 3 people. Clean and tidy decoration. Bathroom nice with good shower. Really good games area for kids. Gym and sauna were well equipped though some of the machines were a little loose! Breakfast: there was a good selection of food. Had to wait a short time for new hot food to be served. Good coffee. Had dinner in the restaurant was a disaster with over an hour wait for cold food. They did apologise. "

"Staff were super accommodating and friendly. We arrived at 5 am and the offered to turn the lights down in the lounge so we could sleep. Let us store our luggage until we could get our room and when we left for a day trip. Food was wonderful as well. "

"Always happy to stay here"

"We had a wonderful stay at this small guest home. We wished we had been able to stay longer. The hosts were kind and went out of their way to make us feel at home. Very nice room with a lovely view. "

"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!"
