I loved my room. I had the library room and it felt like being surrounded by friends. I need to put bookshelves in my bedroom just like this. The food was amazing. I adored the ratatouille. The staff were very pleasant. I highly recommend this place.

Absolutely wonderful stay, the staff was friendly and welcoming, knowledgeable about the area and activities, the room was clean and comfortable, the lounge and restaurant were thoughtfully designed and a wonderful and peaceful place to take in the scenery and relax. Dinner was outstanding, highly recommend staying at least two nights and enjoying dinner both nights. Cannot recommend enough, this was a very pleasant stay.

Really enjoyed the evening discussion about the history of the property! Food was extremely good!! Staff was very friendly and courteous! The area is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen- and the fact that the hotel is in a book city puts this in the 6 star category. Absolutely amazing all around!!!

Beautiful view and location for seeing fjord and glaciers. Hotel rooms are very small and ours had slanted attic style ceiling, so my 6 foot son kept hitting his head. Included breakfast was amazing.

Quirky characterful property with a stunning location right on the fjord. We stayed 1 night on our 2 week trip around Southern Norway and had a "compact" room which had a lot of character (I hadn't slept in a library before!). Excellent 3 course dinner using local produce.

First impression was not good! Construction going on in the front of the hotel so had to carry bags all the way around the back and up stairs to get into the building. They put us in a room on the second floor over dining area which was very noisy. Not a good sign when they provide you with earplugs in the room. You definitely need them! Walls are paper thin so if you like to sleep this is not the hotel for you. You hear everything! Yes, it is very charming and the people are super friendly. Dinner was good but you only have 1 choice and that’s whatever they decide that evening. One disappointment at dinner no fresh greens which I think would be easy for them to provide you with a salad with dinner. Breakfast was very limited. They ran out of eggs our second morning. I bought my own bananas and kiwi at the store and sliced them with the yogurt they provided, since they only had whole apples and pears. Bathrooms are tiny and towel’s definitely need to be upgraded, worst I’ve seen in a hotel that charges $275 a night. Again the construction was very disappointing and really should have let people know before we booked the hotel. If you think you are going to relax in a quiet setting on the beautiful fjord not so much when you have saws and drills in the background at your hotel. They should have discounted all rooms during the construction because you couldn’t even sit outside to enjoy the area without the construction noise. Hot tub also under construction.

Funky old historic house in tiny Fjord village with great breakfast and dinner! If you like old eclectic homes with squeaky boards, ancient artwork and stunning views this is the place for you! The staff are unbelievable and share nightly stories about their village and community of 340 people! The food was way above our expectations both for the breakfast and dinner. They also have a fully functioning bar and lounge area (the only One in town). The town doesn’t have much but it’s in a great location for day trips to the infamous glaciers and other beautiful hikes

The property is very old but has been updated as much as possible without losing the character that makes it so charming. The staff are very friendly and helpful, the views are exceptional and the food is delicious. The bedrooms are small but comfortable. The hotel is small and quiet.

Staying here is a must
We loved our stay here. We wished we could have stayed longer. Situated on the fjord it was so peaceful and serene. You did just want to relax. The view from the sitting room was spectacular. The earplugs provided for any noise weren't necessary in the end. We thoroughly recommend chef Freddy's 3 course dinner with the paired wines, just divine. Lots of fresh, locally sourced food and by local I mean the farm down the road. Breakfast was just as delicious with more locally sourced foods and homemade breads, jams, nugatti, waffles mix. All the staff were lovely and I appreciated the helpful emails before our arrival.

Located on a beautiful fjord!
I stayed in a single room at the Fjaerland Fjordstove for one night. My room was clean but felt old as this is an older hotel. I had a beautiful view of the fjord which makes up for the older room. It was very loud as I could hear others talking, walking, turning on the water, etc. I had to sleep with ear plugs in. It's located on a beautiful fjord and quiet town - for location alone, I loved it! They had an amazing breakfast spread that is included. I would come back just for the breakfast!

Nice hotel off the beaten path
Cute little town that and was worth the beautiful drive to get there. We had a family room with a beautiful fjord view (see photo). The hotel was charming and staff friendly & helpful. I rarely take the time to review but we had such a wonderful experience that I felt the need to.

Simply lovely in every way!
We just stayed in room 109 with our two daughters. I can't think of words adequate enough to describe the setting and our enjoyment in this lovely hotel. It harkens back to another era. The owner gives an informal speech every evening in the fm drawing room about the history of the hotel, Fjaerland, and the local geology...then the dining room doors swing open and guests are invited to enter. The food is top quality and locally sourced. There are boats and bicycles to use. Do yourself a favor and stay more than one night. We wish we had!

Wonderful, if slightly flawed, hotel
Amazing location along the fjord with very friendly service and a good chef. Wonderful atmosphere with a a unique proprietor. Bring your blinders and ear plugs as this is an old hotel with modest sound insulation and very bright early morning sun.

Great hotel, lovely people, stunning views.
Really enjoyed our stay. The communal lounge and dining room spaces were wonderful, and a great opportunity to speak to other guests in a relaxed atmosphere with stunning views. The meals were of a very high standard and the staff friendly and helpful. It is a beautiful setting, close to the Glacier Museum which was excellent. Make sure you visit the glaciers - they are easily accessible. Bed was comfortable, although the room was a little small. However, we hardly spent any time in our room as the public areas of the hotel were fabulous.

Hotel med fantastisk beliggenhed og god atmosfære
Charmerende gammelt hotel med fin atmosfære. Familieværelse viste sig noget trangt til 3 personer. Senge i form af alkover med ubekvemme madrasser. Badeværelse minimalt, Rengøring OK. Venligt og engageret personale, der gerne tager en god snak med gæsterne. God mad og lille, men fin morgenbuffet med gode råvarer og hjemmebagt brød. Hotellet lægger ikke skjul på, at det er af ældre dato og beder gæsterne respektere, at der er noget lydt på værelserne. For en sikkerheds skyld er der lagt ørepropper på værelset.

Oppfylte ikke forventningene
Vi hadde høye forventninger til dette hotellet grunnet prisen og fordi det er et av de historiske hotellene. Det var derfor skuffende at oppholdet ikke var så bra som vi håpet. Middagen var kjedelig og ikke verdt prisen i det hele tatt. Eieren snakket mye om at hotellet var opptatt av bærekraft og kortreist mat, men frokostbuffeten var en ganske standard buffet, som ikke bar preg av et økologisk fokus. Utsikten fra rommet var nydelig, men innredning og standard på hotellet for øvrig var ikke som forventet.
