Room not too bad. We were by the end of September and everything was closed, including the Hotel Restaurant. The only alternative was a buffet dinner in a nearby hotel. The only one open This place is not so good for a stopover. Try another place.

Wonderful views over mountains and fjord. Handy location next to Dragsvik ferry terminal. Staff friendly, casual atmosphere. Room basic and bed comfortable. Twinings tea bags, kettle and small bar fridge in room. But plastic cups to drink Twinings tea from? Terrible, so I got a china cup and saucer from downstairs. Dinner was nice but like everywhere in Norway so expensive for what is good home style cooking. Good hot water in bathroom and amenities. The only things I noticed were: no toilet paper holder but were just put on the the multiple toilet roll storage holder. Design of bathroom a bit cramped as when you open the shower door it hits the edge of the wash basin so would have better designed although quite modern fittings. Overall very good though.

Fabulous setting and views. We were in a cabin a short walk from the main building. The bathroom had been refurbished and was really nice. The rest of the cabin badly needed to be done as well as it was very worn. Lighting was dreadful. Electric heating pretty effective though

Pas satisfaits

Hôtel très bien placé, mais chambre vraiment vieillotte. Le système de douche est particulièrement désagréable. Il y a sûrement un problème également avec les hottes de la cuisine : En soirée, tous les couloirs ont un branchement olfactif direct avec les fourneaux.

Comfortable stay.

Fabulous views over the fjord despite overcast weather. Comfortable although basic room. Very tight bathroom ! Great shower. Nice meal in the restaurant, prices high as you would expect. Ferry to and from was very easy and well managed with very accurate time schedules.

Hôtel sur les rives du sognfjord

Nous avons dormis une nuit dans cet hôtel. Nous avons eu une petite vue sur le fjord de la chambre, le personnel était très aimable et la chambre propre. La douche un peu exigu avec un système de porte pliante mais pour une nuit cela fait l affaire. Le petit déjeuner était très bon et diversifié avec le restaurant vu sur le fjord.

Not as I had expected.

We got probably the worst room in the place so our experience was affected by that. The views most rooms and the dining room and outdoor areas are fabulous. It’s by the ferry landing but that wasn’t a problem. It wasn’t quite as nice overall as I had expected though given the price.

Dragsvik Fjordhotel

The front desk was very friendly, even carried my heavy luggage to the second floor. There was no elevator. The rooms were small but they provide plenty public space around the property to relax. The fjord view from the room was great. The breakfast was excellent. The location was a bit out of the way. But it took only 10 minutes to drive to Balestrand where most restaurants were located.

This is a very quaint hotel run by a very nice staff who made a lot of efforts to give us a pleasant stay. The hotel is situated on a peninsula with panoramic views of beautiful mountains and fjords. We had two delicious dinners and three wonderful breakfasts at the hotel. It would help future travelers if their website made it more clear that, without a car rental, there is no easy way to come off the speedboat in Balestrand and get to the hotel with your luggage. It’s a 10 km trip around the little water inlet, so you can’t walk it with luggage and taking the local bus would be cumbersome with luggage. If you know this ahead of time, you can plan how you want to manage it.

Amazing location on a peninsula with panoramic views. I think the logistics involved with the place should be made more clear up front. We deduced that we needed a rental car to get from the boat to the hotel when we mapped out the place, but others seemed to have been more caught off guard.

Perfect location. We got room with a balcony and a beautiful view. In additional to all standard amenities in a hotel, the Dragsvik Fjordhotel made us feel that they honestly and wholeheartedly wanted to make our stay comfortable. Thanks to Magnar (the hotel manager?).

I made the reservation as a stopover hotel on our route through Norway and we got a very pleasant surprise. It is a family hotel, with a personalized treatment by the person who attended us. Breakfast was nice and it came with a view, all with natural products and very good quality. Would have loved to stay here for a couple more nights.

Hyggelig opphold.

Et sentralt overnattingssted når en kommer med ferja fra Vangsnes. Hotellet ligger rett ved ferjeleiet. Kort vei med bil inn til Balestrand. Hyggelig og god bevertning og service. Rent og ordentlig.
