Very historic hotel. You can visit the hotel to learn about its history, from the hotel built before World War I to how it has evolved step by step to today. The hotel has a restaurant and the front desk service is very professional.

What a fantastic place to stay. The older part of the hotel is amazing. Beautifuly situated and the older part is like something out of a period movie. Buffet breakfast is extensive and delicious. Staff are helpful and friendly. The newer part to the hotel seems a little contrasting to the older part but probably needed to ensure the hotel could accommodate more guests. We ate in the bar on our first of 2 nights. Family of 4, 2 adults and 2 children. Was approximately 85 british pounds with drinks. I had the burger and it was delicious....

The Kviknes Hotel consists of two parts, the original hotel containing some of the older rooms as well as the main the restaurant, and a newer multistorey wing. We stayed in the latter and whilst it's by no means a contemprary building, it was comfortable, clean and had a great view of the surrounding fjords and mountain ranges. The hotel in Balestrand is an ideal base to explore the fjords as well as the scenic road Turistveg: Gaularfjellet. We mostly ate dinner in the bar area, and the food was quite acceptable. The breakfast was included in the tarrif and was of a high standard. There is ample free parking as well as charging points for EVs.

Traditional fjord hotel. On a point of land surrounded by the fjord, so great views from all sides. Good location near ferry dock, grocery store, bus pick-up etc. There is a new wing of the hotel and an historic wing. Rooms in the new wing are pretty basic. Dinner was buffet at night. Pretty much a feeding frenzy when the large groups come in. There is the option for a limited fixed price menu. Staff in the restaurant very friendly. Staff at the front desk are not helpful or friendly at all, even when the area was not crowded.
