Eastern Norway Beach Holidays

This is a beautiful hotel that I have had the opportunity to visit in the past. We stayed 4 nights this time and have enjoyed the quiet beauty of the hotel and surrounding area.

The grounds and the setting are extremely well thought out and welcoming. I knew to expect issues, as when I called to confirm our massages, I was advised they were never booked into the system and there was no appointments left that day. No apologies - that's just the way things are. We arrived early and were told we needed to wait until 3pm to checkin- no issues - but it was obvious we were seniors. We were then told, our room was on the 3rd floor and we needed to walk and carry our luggage there. Why - there were vacant rooms on the other side of the hotel where the elevator was working. I found the check-in person would not reason with me - ie your room is over there. It's too bad, this person was on the front desk and left this impression. It's a lovely property and has so much to offer

Welcoming staff who spoke excellent English. They gave us helpful recommendations for sledding with young children. Swimming pool was great. Buffet breakfast fantastic (cereals, bacon/egg, continental and self-make waffles). Check if there are extra charges for parking and the pool, as the hotel policy was changing while we were there (didn’t effect us as we had booked before changes).

I had a great run from the hotel and out towards Snarøya along the sea with the sun shining!

Great location for a getaway out of the city center, but transportation is an issue for tourists, and food choices are non-existent. The hotel serves the same food the entire week. When booking Expedia wrongly mentioned it was close to the city center
