The staff are friendly and accommodating. The self catering cabin was private, cosy and comfortable and a short walk for dinner and breakfast. The surrounding views are spectacular
Very friendly and courteous staff! It was cold outside but the room was lovely and cozy warm. Nice dinner and my breakfast was included. It is right next to the ferry dock in Gudvangen. In the morning, after breakfast I walked over to the Viking Village and did a tour there… very interesting and worth doing. The bus stop was no more than a 10 minute walk from Fjordtel and I jumped on the bus to Bergen. Thank you for your hospitality Gudvangen Fjordtel!
Had a great stay at Gudvangen Fjordtell. The location is amazing and the people were very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend staying here and not in Flam. Cruise ships cannot come into the fjord that far, so at night it is very peaceful. Easy access back and forth to Flam via the shuttle bus, or by boat.
I chose this place because the hotels in Flam were quite expensive. At first, the exterior of the hotel made me hesitate a little, but after staying here, I was pleasantly surprised. The interior was beautifully upgraded and very clean, far better than the outside appearance. The staff were also kind and helpful. The breakfast was slightly below average, but the atmosphere was quiet and pleasant. If I visit again, I would definitely stay here.

Fabulous Stay
We truly enjoyed our stay here. The apartment for 6 was so spacious and clean. The views were spectacular. Our only problem was that we wanted to stay longer.
Arrived by ferry from Flåm. Idyllic setting at the end of a beautiful fjord. Had a comfortable and spacious small apartment. Was perfect for the two of us. Dinner on site was very good. Took city bus to flam the next morning. Definitely the best location for an overnight stay!!
If you want to stay close to Flåm, this place is a gem. It’s only 20 minutes from flam & is easily accessible by ferry or bus. There are several dining options on or near the property. The scenery is beautiful and the rooms are clean and comfortable. Also the breakfast bar is good and has everything. I would highly recommend.
We really enjoyed our stay here. We had a two bedroom - just a note that it is a bit of a walk from the main hotel area down the road, so if anyone has mobility issues they should be aware of that. The staff were really lovely and accommodating and offered us early check in as we arrived on the bus from Voss with all of the other tourists and I had a cranky 3 year old. The breakfast was excellent - lots of variety and fresh food. We enjoyed visiting the Viking Valley - which I don’t think is affiliated with the hotel but the restaurants are owned by the same people. Lovely views, lovely room (a bit cold to start but heated up once we were there for awhile and had the heaters going) - and it was magical waking up to the frosty mountain air with that view.
We liked.the peaceful location. It meant a 20 mins bus from Flam but was worth it. Lovely seafood restaurant on the wharf looking down the fjord. Good service and nice seafood.
Convenient place to stay if you want to visit the Hardangerfjord area fjords .
They have a great breakfast buffet that is constantly refilled as eggs or pastries are gobbled up.
We took a ferry to Flam and the train up the hill ftom there
Staff was all very friendly and wanted to make sure you were taken care of. We stayed one night as we took a ferry from Bergen to Flåm in order to get to Oslo. We stayed in a room with a kitchen and if we had to do it over would've stayed a couple nights and done hiking in the area. The room was clean and there was plenty of space. The property had 2 restaurants and a third at the viking village was available. Good experience for less than 24 hour stay and beautiful location.
