    Consider requesting the private sauna experience by the lakeshore for a relaxing retreat that's often overlooked by guests.

    Needs improvement
    5.8

    The location is outstanding, and the surroundings a real treat! The refurbished hotel building is also excellently maintained, and gives a true reflection of its history. Liked it very much.

    The room could not be made completely dark, and this was a very big problem considering White Nights. The restaurant also apparently lacked English menu's on the first night (only in Norwegian), but surprisingly had them available on our second night.

    The charming exterior and interior

    The room was very small. For such a price one would expect a more spacious room. During our stay there were works in progress in the hotel (painting) that caused inconvinience

    fine nature
    warm staff
    family-friendly atmosphere
    limited family activities

    Our family had such a wonderful time at this enchanting place! The fine nature surrounding the hotel made for a perfect family escape. Our days were filled with joy as we sailed the Telemark Canal. The staff warmly welcomed us, even accommodating our special needs son's autism support dog.

    In my wife's opinion, more kid-friendly activities would be great.

    beautiful parks and fine historic sites for weekend strolls

    I loved wandering through the nearby gardens and discovering the charming Eidsborg Stave Church. The breakfast spread with homemade delicacies was good and gave us the energy we needed for exploring the local attractions.

    cramped room
    inexperienced service

    The room was unbearably cramped for the price we paid, and it was far too hot without any fans provided. Dinner service felt rushed, and the waiters seemed inexperienced, further adding to our frustration since the dress code was not adhered to by other guests.

    enchanting ambiance
    lacking cutlery
    small portions

    The ambiance at Dalen Hotel is enchanting. The staff is dedicated and friendly, ensuring a welcoming experience. The Afternoon Tea lacked quality cutlery and the setup needed improvement, which slightly marred the experience. The food was enjoyable but could be more generous with portions.

    I recently had a lovely stay where the cozy atmosphere and the beautiful, classic dining experience really stood out. However, the service was a bit slow at times, which was frustrating.

    cozy room
    afternoon tea
    soothing music
    distant bathroom

    After a long boat trip, we were greeted with delicious locally. I loved relaxing with afternoon tea and the soothing piano music in the lounge. The only hiccup was the bathroom being a bit far from our room, but it didn't overshadow the magical experience 🌟

    Nestled amid scenic surroundings down the hill, this fairy tale hotel boasts spacious rooms and a cozy lounge. the retro-styled bathrooms are a bit far from some of the rooms, but fully functional. the breakfast is of high quality with an OK selection of local food. the staff is friendly and attentive, treating guests like royals. the hotel features a modern sauna by the lakeshore, perfect for dipping in the ice-cold fjord water after heating up!

    The hotel can be expensive, especially during the national day period.

    We stayed in this luxurious hotel and it exceeded our expectations. the service was impeccable, fulfilling our every need. the garden area was beautifully kept and provided a tranquil escape. Our exclusive room boasted elegant and comfortable furnishings. the breakfast was delicious with homemade specialties and refreshing juice. the packed lunch was perfect for our day out.

    The only minor drawback was the lack of live entertainment. Despite this, the bar/lounge area was a comfortable place to relax and unwind.
