"If I could live here, I would. My room had an incredible view of the ocean and mountains. The breakfast is spectacular and has won awards that are proudly displayed. The hotel is in an incredibly convenient location for the trollfjord boat tour, the WW2 museum (small, but really worthwhile - I learned a lot), and restaurants. The staff were very helpful and friendly."
