This hotel is an old fishing village on its own island, and you get a hotel transfer by boat from the dock at the end of the Atlantic road, so a great way to approach the hotel, if you are heading northwards. The short boat trip was an experience in itself. The hotel has its own pub which is very comfy and atmospheric. The set evening menu was excellent, as was the buffet breakfast, especially considering that they were catering for no more than 20 people when we stayed. All diners had sea/Mountain View’s from their tables. Our room was one of the old fisherman’s huts, which has been tastefully modernised, including underfloor heating in the bathroom. You can explore the 5 acres of the island and there are some good vantage points for photography.

Curtains in the room were not blackout, but we still managed to sleep okay.

Fabulous and unusual location. A real private island feel, lovely view in all directions. A chance to see and experience the old houses of authentic Norway. Great to arrive by boat. Very close to visit and experience the Atlantic road . Great food and wine and breakfasts freshly cooked.

Bar was a bit too rustic for me, and smelled of old fishing ropes but I guess that was the point.

View was spectacular. Saw sea eagles have their breakfast before we had ours! Staff friendly. The restaurant and food was lovely though very expensive.

The ONLY thing we didn’t like was that we could hear our neighbours quite clearly moving around and talking. Think there may have been activities we could have done but didn’t get any information about them beforehand.

The location is amazingly unique, the views are breath taking, and the silence is very appreciated. Breakfast was very good, and so was the bar in the evening. Very good wi fi. The cabin was spacious and comfortable, the shower was great.

It can get quite hot at night, and it is not always possible to keep the windows open because of the strong winds. Also no curtains that can help you with the light at night, so bring blindfolds with you.

The hotel, restaurant, and island are perfection! The staff are all very nice and go above and beyond to make the stay great. The room was wonderful; so cozy and comfortable. The dinner at the hotel restaurant was the best dining experience I had in Norway. The dinner is a bit expensive, but worth every krone.

Nothing!

Location and food was excellent.

Timing of dropping off by the boat and reception opening hours needs adjusting. Boat departing at 0850 with reception opening at 0900? Come on. The rooms, whilst charming are very small, so is the bed. It is expensive. One night with dinner for two at nearly 6000NOK.

Location, exceptionally friendly and helpful staff, breakfast (quality instead of quantity!) Our child enjoyed exploring the cottage and the village.

No fridge and bathroom could be upgraded since it’s not an original detail of the historic cottage. An option to rent a small motorized boat would be nice. The prices on Booking.com seem to be quite a bit higher than on the hotel website.

We got free transport with a boat from the mainland to the island - it was easy to park close to the small harbour, it was very convenient. We stayed in a wonderful cottage with good facilities, and a wonderful view of the sea. The breakfast was good with a lot of choices. We loved walking around on this small island with old and charming buildings, and the feeling of being in the nature. The pub and the restaurant were very delicat and charming in their style.

We had booked dinner for the evening, and had expected seafood, so we were a bit dissapointed when they served duck. They did not have any choices, but the dinner varies from day to day.

It is like an oasis! Definitely a place to stay if you visit Ocean Road. We were one of those oldest houses on the island and it was really comfy and beautiful. There is an excellent restaurant on the island and a Viking ship museum. Quiet place to relax and kids found this place adorable. And free parking near the harbor, to go free boat to the island.

This is an incredibly special place and we loved our stay. From the moment we were picked up on the 'viking boat', to watching the most stunning sunset absolutely uninterrupted over an awe-inspiring landscape we loved our stay. The staff were super-friendly and accommodating, the room was comfortable and beautifully furnished and the breakfast delicious.
