Find the Cheap Hermansverk Hotels

This is a nice hotel in Sognal. It is very centrally located right along a nice creek and near everything in town. The layout is a little weird. If you park in the back in the parking garage (which you have to pay for) you have to walk around the parking lot, up a ramp, through the restaurants, and into the lobby. There is a really old wing and a new wing. Our rooms were in the new wing. The larger restaurant only serves tour groups. The smaller restaurant is open to all guests but has a much more limited menu. The rooms were very comfortable and mine had a nice patio door with a view of the creek and mountains.

The reception is good. In the entrance, we discover large rooms with large leather armchairs on which you can rest. The room assigned to us is upstairs, at the end of the building from the street. She is surprising. First of all, it is a very large room, furnished with several leather armchairs, with another single bed and an original piece of furniture. There are windows running the length of the room which are covered with large curtains. The view overlooks the fjord. Then, at the foot of the bed, there is a large television set facing the living room area and, attached to that, another smaller one facing the headboard. The bathroom is large and pleasant. The hotel is located in a quiet area and we heard no noise at night. Breakfast, which is taken in the hotel’s large dining room, is well stocked. A little less probably than the other hotels we have had. We didn't have dinner at the hotel, but it's possible. There are several options for a quick bite to eat very close to the hotel. For our part, we chose the Dampskipskaien café-bar, on the edge of the fjord, about a hundred meters from the hotel. Friendly, there are a lot of young people there. It's not a real restaurant. Note a choice of original beers. With a car, it is possible to park in front of the hotel or to the side, or even in the neighboring streets. The car park does not belong to the hotel and is therefore chargeable, at the most common rate in Norway (less than €2 per hour), but only during the day. It is free from 5 p.m. to 8 a.m. We only spent one night in this hotel. It's a pleasant stopover before starting a day, for example by going by ferry to Kaupanger (the pier is really close and you can see a beautiful wooden church just before arriving there).

Brilliant trip to Balestrand in Norway with Newmarket Holidays. Our tour guide, Steve was one if the best guides we've had. Spot on and always to hand if needed, such a nice laid back guy but on the ball 24/7. Hotel was good, so much seafood and fish ( there's was always 2 different meats as well) buffet style meals. Good quality. The room was ok. Plenty of hot water, clean sheets and very comfortable beds. Not in the room long enough to nit-pick things that are not important. Room overlooked a ffiord. Balcony with a couple of chairs to enjoy the wonderful views. Balestrand it's self was very quiet and picturesque, great place to chill out. Newmarket offered trips each day, wow we went to some fantastic places. The weather was very kind to us which was a massive bonus.

We arrived late on the Sogndal plane from Oslo and caught the public transport bus directly from the Airport which stops opppsite the Hotel. As the sun never fully sets during summer, we then enjoyed a relaxing but stunning balcony view. The staff were a highlight as they went out of their way to ensure our time with them went very well, and on each occasion (eg on arrival, departure and over breakfast) they provided us valueable direction on making our holiday a success. The Hotel has a great deal to offer a family travelling in rural Western Norway, and would be a great ski lodge in Winter.
