Viksoyri Hotels

"100% the best option. Choosing to spend a night in Flam (basically a cruise port) or Voss (new built town for sporty types) or Gudvangen, we chose the spectacular scenic tranquility of the Gudvangen Fjordtell and one of their Viking Room. Wow! This was so cool! Skylights let you gaze up at the mountain tops and stars at night. The bed very comfy, the decor made you feel you're in Norway, the shower excellent, cozy temps We arrived from Flam via the Ferry at 16:45, walked 2 minutes to hotel, lovely reception, shop, bar, dining room. Once we checked in, went to have a couple pints & a fish n chips dinner in their great dining room also with skylights everywhere. In the morning the included buffet breakfast was excellent! Had time to enjoy and evening stroll and a morning stroll. 11:40 am we caught the local bus right in front of the hotel for a 50 min ride to the Voss train station. Staff were super friendly and super helpful with everything. 100% this is a great choice!"

"Excellent. Would highly recommend!"

"Iconic historic hotel..great views & grounds. "

"We had a wonderful stay at this small guest home. We wished we had been able to stay longer. The hosts were kind and went out of their way to make us feel at home. Very nice room with a lovely view. "

"Of our 2 weeks in Norway, this was our least favorite stay. The beds were tucked away upon arrival, so we had to set up and put bedding on beds. Made sense though, because when set up, there is no room to walk to use bathroom, kitchenette or balcony. The beds were not comfortable and the pool wasn’t working, so we didn’t enjoy our visit."

"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"

"Undeniably a gorgeous location! Communication was a problem but only at 1st. The Expedia message did not work. You have to use WhatsApp to contact them about the door code. Parking is scary if other cars are there. It's a tight squeeze to go anywhere in Undredal though. It's a one-way road, in and out. I will never forget that view though! It was definitely worth the sketchy drive!"

"Staying in this incredible home in Finnabotn was the highlight of our Norway vacation. This "secret" branch of the Sognefjord offers a truly authentic, off-the-grid experience. There is no road access so we rented a boat—the only way to get here—through Vik Adventures and the journey itself was part of the adventure, a scenic 25 to 45-minute ride on the fjord from Vikøyri, depending on conditions.The home itself is a quiet, rustic retreat with some modern updates, preserved to maintain its historical features as part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The scenery is absolutely stunning, with enormous waterfalls serving as a backdrop. We spent our time exploring the area, hiking to the top of the mountain where the waterfalls begin, and enjoying the wild berries. We boated to Balestrand for dinner one night. Every evening, we'd sit on the dock listening to the sounds of the falls. This is a perfect escape for anyone looking for an authentic, off-the-beaten-path experience. NOTE: you need to pack your groceries, as there are no stores nearby!"

"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."
