It was the most magical stay! Super kind staff, cafeteria was really useful, we even use the sauna! The only thing I would make sure everyone knows is that there are no blinds in the Viking themed rooms, so bring a sleep mask!

Beautiful location! Arrived on a boat from Flam which was spectacular, next morning went to the Viking village which I would also strongly recommend. If we were to go again I probably wouldn’t get the breakfast at the hotel. The viking rooms are fun, glad I had a sleep mask

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!

Perfect place to get away

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.
