Lovely but somewhat over-rated

As a museum professional I think it is amazing that such an old building can be put to modern use but with respect for the old building. However our room was cramped in relation to the prize we paid for it, and it was very hot. The least the hotel could do in a building where installing AC is impossible, is to provide fans. Also there naturally were no elevators, but the hotel could have provided porters, which would also have been historically correct. Our 5 course dinner was good, but one should not come hungry to the table. Waiters were willing and friendly but inexperienced. The dress code at dinner was not followed by the other guests. Breakfast was superior though.

Veldig hyggelig hotell med god atmosfære og imøtekommende personale. Interiøret i restaurant og peisestue er intimt og varmt. Rommet var rent og pent, frokosten delikat og har det man måtte ønske; også egne valg fra meny.

Rent rom, litt liten dusj, men greit nok. Hyggelig at det sto fremme et par glass portvin og at det kom sjokolade på døren. Fin historiefortelling på kvelden. Kommer gjerne igjen.

In einem historischen Hotel wie dem Dalen zu übernachten, ist ein Erlebnis. Die Reise dorthin ist es absolut wert. Das Haus wurde mit viel Liebe zum Detail restauriert, um ein solches Bijou zu erhalten.
