No frills fjord-front hotel with a cozy ambience, a private pier, and proximity to local sites

Overview

Midtnes Hotel is an authentic, no-frills Norwegian option perched above the Sogne Fjord, offering natural beauty and a homey ambience. With its roots in Balestrand, it has served as a welcoming gateway to the fjord landscapes of Norway. You'll be just a few minutes walk from attractions like the quaint English Church and the immersive Glacier Museum, and you can easily embark on hikes and boat trips and visit the local cider house. The Dragsvik Ferry Terminal is a 10-minute drive away, giving you convenient access to explore the region.

The guest rooms at Midtnes Hotel are crafted to provide a cozy and comfortable stay. The decor is simple yet warm, with neutral walls, patterned carpets, and dark brown furniture. Each room comes with a basic bathroom. Most feature a balcony overlooking the fjord, allowing you to get fresh air and enjoy the scenic beauty right from your room. 

During your stay, you can wake up and head to the lounge, where you can sit by the fireplace, sip your coffee, and mingle with fellow guests. Then, head down to the private pier for a morning swim or rent a boat if you prefer to be on the water. If you're a fan of indoor entertainment, you can enjoy a game of billiards or darts. When it's time to eat, check out the in-house restaurant, which caters to various palates, serving Norwegian and international cuisine. During the summer, you can savor your meals at the fjord-view terrace.

Family style hotel with the owner attending to details. The rooms are simple, but the whole hotel, living room, etc. is so cozy. Wonderful breakfast. Games to play, piano, books. Who needs a TV when you have a beautiful view out your window? And the beautiful small stave church. Read more

The view from the hotel was fantastic! But the hotel itself is old and lacking any amenities. If you know that going in, you'll be fine. The owner is lovely and attentive. Read more
