“This historic waterfront property in Norheimsund stands out for its blend of tradition and modern comforts, plus some rooms include private balconies; I found the buffet dinner, showcasing local cuisine, particularly appealing. It's my opinion that the setting is ideal for experiencing the Hardangerfjord and nearby outdoor activities. The hotel's roots go back to 1857, giving it a unique sense of place.”
