Beach Hotels in Flåm

First off, we showed up after check-in was over - not a problem, we just sent an email and the staff had our whole welcome package and keys ready on the desk. Next, the bed was comfortable, the room quiet, the bathroom clean and nice. The breakfast the next morning was a good Norwegian breakfast - mix of meats and cheeses, different breads, eggs, cereals, and some jelly donuts and square slices of chocolate cake that were honestly amazing. Couldn't stop myself from going back for more of those cakes. Coffee was delicious too. Finally, the locale. First, Aurlandsvangen is an awe-inspiring place. The fjord is vast and the scale will truly impress you. It is definitely something to see in person. The town of Aurland is really nice and has much more in it than neighbouring Gudvangen and a real Scandinavian almost ski-town feel to it. It is a very short drive away from Flam and is definitely a way I would recommend to go if you want to ride the Flamsbana (which a lot of people will report is an excellent way to see the fjords). It's a 4.5 hour drive from Oslo but what a drive. Finally there are roads to go up the mountains to get a breathtaking view of the entire fjord arrangement from up high at Stegastein - my wife is terrified of heights but didn't want to come back down! I can't recommend this place and this town enough if you want to see a beautiful, vast landscape and stay somewhere "cozy" (not small, more like hygge if you're familiar with the term). Oh and I forgot to mention the grounds of the hotel with lots of outdoor seating - you can grab cushions from the chest and they're warm, soft and plush. And it's quiet. It's honestly amazing. Come here.

Very friendly staff, Great location at the fiord shore. Excellent Breakfast and dinner menu . strongly recommend this hotel
