Sogndal Hotels with Gym

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).

The hotel is quite worn down. Since we had dogs with us we had a room at bottom floor facing the garden, which was great, but the room was in no way meeting the price level. It was really worn down and quite small. Breakfast was meeting our expectations, we don’t mind being positively surprised though - didn’t happen here. Personnel from reception, management to breakfast waitresses weren’t smiling ONCE. Exception was a night manager. If you travel with dogs you know that you have to accept limited access to all areas, that’s fine, but if you allow pets in certain rooms one is expecting to be able to bring them to, for instance, the lobby area. Cannot recommend this hotel.
