Hotel berhampiran Voss, Voss

It was awful and not worth the money. Not worth a 4 star rating! We call this in Dutch: gone glory. It probably had its days, but has been neglected and needs a very high investment to get it back on track. Let me share our experience with you: The arrival (hospitality): When arriving we entered the hotel. It all looked nice in the lobby. There were no people at the reception except for two staff members. These teo guys were behind a single computer together. We were waiting at the desk, with two heavy bags on our back. After 10 minutes waiting (and another person entering the queue) I decided to take my heavy backpack off. Then he asked me if he could help me. It was quite rude. But that’s not it…… We got our cards and went to the room. The stairwell looks like that of a hostel. You know, the one you pay 25 Euros or dollars per night for, where you went to when you were 17-18 years old. The windows were utterly filthy (like in your dorm). And when I entered the room, the electricity circuit was the same as it probably was in 1961. I would declare it to be unsafe if I were a fireman. I know a hairdryer qualifies for points to get stars, but….. does it have to be hanging in the area of the wardrobe? In this case yes! Because there is no electricity available in the bathroom (or anywhere close to a mirror). So we charged our iPhones, but needed to take the lamps out first. No other piints of electricity. The bathroom; It has white tiles, a shower curtain, a shower head dating from the nineties. My student dorm was way more luxurious. There were black hairs on the floor (since I have long blond hair, they couldn’t have been instantly mine). The ceiling is made of glassfiber wall wallpaper, which probably was necessary to hide the fungus, due to bad ventilation. And be able to paint over and over again. Then there's the balcony. The doors probably have been painted in the early 2000’s for the last time. And when looking at the view, it’s like going back to east Germany before the wall fell. But then with a nice lake and beautifull mountains to fill the view. I booked this hotel on our way back to get some rest, and make sure we would travel back home fit and well rested. Well……… The neighbours on the right were trying to maximize the beats per minute they could generate together by bouncing the bed very agressively to the wall for some reason, and enjoyed making funny noises, one usually hears when wat hung nature movies. The neighbours on the left found it the right time to start a heavy debate, don’t know what about, but it lasted for hours. The neighbours above really liked doing some chair moving aerobics. They probably needed to achieve their Fitbit goal on steps needed, to met their target. Well, at around mid ight, the hotel went quiet. Check out: When we checked out, I gave my cards to the receptionist. She said: thank you and have a nice day. I asked my son:”what didn’t she ask, what is usually being asked when you check ou

The front desk staff selected a room with the best possible view for us, and we were pleasantly surprised. The room was spacious, accommodating up to four people, even though there were just two of us. The adjustable bed, which allowed us to customize the height of both the neck and leg areas, ensured a comfortable and restful sleep.

始建於1864年的老酒店，上世紀初接待過眾多北歐皇室和英國國王，很有歷史範兒。位置無敵，湖邊的開闊C位，坐在二樓的咖啡座上，湖光山色，什麼都不做也是享受。早餐豐富，有室內游泳池和桑拿房，不要錯過。離纜車站、商業街、森林徒步都很近。總之，很美的酒店，值得呆一晚。

The hotel is fantastic! Staff Very kind and genuine. Made me feel welcome right away with a big smile and make sure everything is all right. Amenities There is access to a full kitchen. The share toilet and shower were always clean. Rooms The beds are very comfortable and the duvet makes it feels as you sleep on a cloud. Location It is one train station away from Voss Sentrum. The area around the hotel is very peaceful and quiet. Decor I loved all the objects on display in the hallway and the rooms. It looks like a museum! Café There is a very cozy coffee downstairs to watch tv or warm up by the wood fire. They have cakes, donuts coffee... I absolutely want to go there again. When I go back to Norway that place is where I want to be!!!

We stayed mid Feb (over half term) in interconnecting rooms on a bed, breakfast and evening meal basis. We flew Gatwick to Bergen on Norwegian Air. Arrival:- Norwegian Air were fine so not sure why so many people complain about them! We were on the plane less time than in the coach for our transfer! Bergen Airport – organised, clean and quick (immigration and luggage collection). Hotel organised transfer and driver was waiting as we walked out of final security. Transfer was in a nice coach and took 2 hours there and just over on the way back due to traffic on a Sunday. Upon arrival at the hotel check in was relatively quick although info was a little lacking re ski passes, ski collection, lockers etc. Our ski pass QR code didn’t work on the machines in the hotel so we walked next door and they were really helpful and sorted. There are ski lockers but they are limited to approx. 30 – none available when we arrived but one became available the next day. There is boot and ski storage which probably out of school holidays is less manic. Ski hire – hectic on day 1 and first lesson start was delayed as a result. We pre-ordered our equipment which helped so if you can then I would suggest doing that. Ski’s and boots were good, helmets limited at the start but then we swapped after the initial rush calmed down. Rooms – comfortable beds and pillows. One room had a sofa and the other a balcony (good for chilling drinks!). Bathroom was adequate and storage area had plenty of hooks and enough hanging space. Restaurants – upon arrival we were given a dining schedule for the week where we had to chose where and when we ate (one meal in Nuten Fondue and one in Tunet). Breakfast was a buffet style in Restaurant Nuten – it was busy from 7:30 but gets quieter from 8:30 onwards as people move from food to skiing preparation. Good selection of bread (no toaster), pancakes, cooked breakfast options, pastries yogurt and fruit. Evening meal was a set 3 course dinner but you could choose from the menu if you wanted. Good variety of drinks at the expected high prices. Fondue was lovely (meat and cheese) and meal in Tunet was really good. Lunch was either in Kamben, Fjellstova Vetlebotn or Myrkdalsstovo – food and drinks were nice in each. FV, in our opinion for lunch, had the most selection and was pretty cool being up in the mountains. For those who are less experienced the red run to it and from it back to the blues was easy. Skiing – was excellent for us. Our 2 kids were beginners and with 5 morning lessons by the end of the week were doing jumps and blue/red runs. One of the lifts was out of order for most of the time we were there but they kept other lifts open for longer to compensate. We rarely queued for a lift which was brilliant. There was so much snow and whilst temperatures were below zero we didn’t feel cold. The slopes Mon-Fri were quiet but at the weekend were slightly busier. On the Saturday we did the cruise which was brilliant
