Saltnes Holidays from £215

Enkle hytter, men innholder det meste man trenger. To små soverom med to enke senger i hver. Bad med dusj og toalett. Stue/kjøkken med sofa, spisebord, kjøleskap, komfyr og vannkoker. Litt kjøkkenutstyr også. Beliggenheten er veldig bra. Like ved havnen på Hvasser.

It’s great! However, you have to remember many rules while there. I noticed a little double standard when it comes to phone usage. We spent a full week at the property and we felt policed about phone usage 24/7, when to use the swimsuit, when not to use the swimsuit, when to use the towel, when not to use the towels, which stairs I am allowed to use and which I am not allowed to use. The spa police will get into the steam room and sauna and make you get naked if you are wearing the swimsuit. The excuse was that wearing the swimsuit will place the chlorine on the wood as well as the sweat and that’s why you must lay the towel down and then be naked on top of the towel. However, magically on Tuesdays that’s not a problem at all. You can wear the swimsuit in the sauna and spa no problem as long as the towel is under you. We were stopped by multiple people multiple times just for the simple act of looking at our phone to see what time it is. There aren’t many clocks around the spa, therefore, we had to see the time on our phones to not loose track of time. Furthermore, at breakfast there were 4 people using their phones making calls, sending texts and browsing through their phones and not one word was said to them. I recommend the spa for one day only as I had used it in the past, but for a full week I don’t think this is the place you want to be specially when you don’t want to be bossed around of what you can or can not do as as small child. All else was great, good food!

Let's start with the positives. The staff vas helpfult and good. The breakfast was one of the best ones I have had in a hotel, but the deserts are just way to sweet, cut down on the sugar guys. The gym is very good and has everything you need for a nice exercise. The pool and sauna is nice but unfortunately very greedy and stupid to charge extra to use them. The hotel is already expensive and off location as it is, at least you should have the pool and sauna included in the price like every other hotel on planet earth, whats the point in visiting this hotel otherwise if you need to pay extra for almost everything except the room? Overall I would rate it a strong 3.5 because of the nice breakfast and staff.
