Gulen Hotels

"This family owned hotel on the fjord was a great place to stay. It had a good evening meal and breakfast. Very friendly staff and owners. We had a view room which was awesome."

"We had a lovely stay in Eivindvik. The location is gorgeous and so quiet. The cottage was really nice inside with all the things you need- extra blankets, pillows, a well-appointed kitchen. The desk is great for cocktails or just admiring the view, and there is a little lawn for kids to play."

"Five stars is not enough for the stone cabin in Ortnevik! The one bedroom cabin is so charming. The kitchen has everything you will need to prepare meals and the bed is comfortable. The property is incredibly beautiful and there are interesting hikes right from the cabin. Just a quick walk away you’ll find an amazing wood sculpture garden that will blow your mind. Eldar was very helpful with check in and with advice on where to hike and walk. The small store in town has limited hours but a surprising amount of supplies for a small place. But if you have the option it is likely best to grocery shop in a larger town before arrival. At the cabin I felt I could be away from it all and see the real Norway. Thank you Eldar for sharing your wonderful property with us"

"Great views, dramatic location, cheerful and courteous staff"

"Great cabin in a convenient location to explore Bergen and the surrounding area. We had everything we needed in the cabin and the hot tub was a real bonus."

"Good view from the room."

"Nestled in the hills surrounded by lush greenery, the Alver Hotel was our base for kayaking in the spectacular fjords. We stayed in an updated cabin that was well equipped with the basic necessities, including an in unit washer and dryer. Our stay includes a delicious breakfast buffet each morning. If possible I would give a sixth star for the friendly staff who went the extra mile to make our stay pleasant and memorable."

"The bed was huge, a little too big for the size of the room but the room was clean. The room was cute, kind of the old village style atmosphere. The view of the lake was beautiful and the complimentary breakfasts were "delightful"! Ginger shots, caviar, and fresh fruit smoothies daily. It's about 40 miles from the city which is a challenge for taxi service but the staff was extremely friendly. I enjoyed my stay."

"This is a lovely spot.  The cabin is set into the side of a ridge with forest at the back.  The front wall of windows and deck look out about a kilometer, over fields and the village, to the Sognefjord.  During our stay with our teenaged granddaughter in early June, the wildflowers were everywhere, and the forest was  a misty J.R.R. Tolkien landscape of thick moss, crags, rocks, crevices and rivulets.  Great hiking out the door in every direction, and, even on a drizzly day, the anticipation of a cozy return.  The heated floors are delightful.  Much thought went into the cabin's layout, with touches including carvings, a gnarly stump supporting the kitchen counter, and stairs to the loft hewn out of a single log.Ortnevik is off the beaten path, at the end of a narrow road from Bjordal to the west.  That is an appealing reason to visit this part of Hoyanger.  But, the visitor should realize that ferries are more limited on the weekend, the small local store is often closed, and no nearby cafes.  So, a good idea to pick up supplies on the way and double check the ferry schedule.   Our time here was the highlight of our trip to Norway."
