Fresh renovated rooms, at the moment, they build a new wing and an amazing breakfast/dining room, the location on vestrahorn is extraordinary, free entry when staying in the hotel
For any photographers wanting to get photos of Vestrahorn, there is no better place to stay. There have been new additions to guesthouse over the past year and the new rooms are excellent! Some even have kichenettes and washer/dryers which is great especially if on a longer trip. Access to the beach is included and you can get tickets at cafe to come and go as you please and chase the light.
Beautiful, remote place to stay. The rooms were simple but totally clean and had everything we needed.

Idyllic location! but the cabin was too basic, next to a construction site, and breakfast was below average. This was the most expensive night of our trip, and one of the poorest in terms of quality, but there are not many options in that area.
The staff was excellent. The room was perfect for the stay. We loved stokness and the viking village

The room we stayed in is in an older section, but it was comfortable, Hada anice patio with an amazing view. The property is beautiful with lots of trails including along the coast where you can watch the seals.
This was an awesome spot. Kind of out of the way and it looks like they are expanding with a bunch of construction. The room was large and comfortable and a nice breakfast as well.
Small but strategically placed property right beside Vestrahorn and the Viking Village. Room look updated, although small with not much room to move around the beds, it had everything needed for a comfortable and quiet stay with great views. Very friendly welcome and with it right beside Vestrahorn, it was an ideal stay for getting pics at sunset and sunrise. Breakfast was standard fare but dinner options were limited to soup, a panini or grilled cheese and ham. Book early as likely to sell out well in advance!
This place is amazing! Breakfast included, friendly staff, access to the Viking village and beach, breathtaking views of the Vestrahorn mountains. I love this place!
