Positives:||My husband and I stayed there 2 nights. (Jun 16th to Jun 18th). ||||We stayed in a King Studio with Sofa Bed in the 2nd floor. It is small but cozy and really tasteful decor. You feel at home in the studio.||||A very beautiful view - forest and mountains in the background.||||We were very welcomed by Robert, The Lodge's owner. He is very kind and helpful.||||The place is perfect to visit the Hardanger Fjord. ||||It is quiet and silent.||||||Negatives:||||It was very difficult to find the Kvamseter Lodge. The Lodge construction is in detail finishing phase and there is no name in the building. The GPS did not find neither the address nor the name. It is located in a small old road. I suggest Robert to design a schematic map and send by email to guests.||||I think that is the main reason for the good cost-benefit.||||We have some suggestions to complete the details:||||- it is missing a toilet paper holder||- it is missing a full length mirror||- it is missing a shelf for shampoo and shower gel in the box||- it is missing a bathroom toweling mat||- it is important to improve water pressure in shower - very weak||- it is missing a stronger, direct light for reading||||There are a lot of stairs in the building. This was a problem to carry our big and heavy suitcases upstairs. Luckyly the Robert's partner, which was in the Lodge in the day when we did the chek-out, helped my husband carrying down our heavy suitcases.||There is a good kitchen in the Studio but there is no dishwasher, nor microwave. ||||Fortunately in the basement there is a big and very well equipped kitchen with 2 dishwashers, microwave, sandwich maker. But it was a problem to go down and up several times with the tableware and pans. As we did not know how long is the dishwasher cicle, we had to go down and up a few times to see if it has finished. ||||The bed is not king size as I expected in a King Studio. It is a queen size bed and the mattress is too soft. My husband slept in the sofa bed one night and we switched places in...
Read moreOne of the affordable lodge around Bergen. ||We were looking for a hotel and this was recommended by booking.com. 32 kms from Bergen based on booking.com but when we used google map, the location is 58kms. Almost double. I do not know whose fault is this but definitely mislead us. If we knew that it is this far, we will find another hotel. ||It is clean and new. Very isolated which is good for those looking for serenity. ||If I have something bad to say, self service hotel is not my thing. I find it so inconvenient. Especially for travelers like us who stay for a night and in rush. We do not want to call the owner when we find something not right. Like entering the hotel was a difficulty too, when the PIN provided didnt work right away. We stayed outside the hotel for more than 15mins because we couldnt find the entrance as it is not really easily noticeable.||Also, We booked for 2 adults and only one set of towels in...
Read moreYou can stay here short term or long term. They have family rooms, suites and apartments. All rooms have small coffemaker and a small fridge. It is a bit hard to find if you don't use GPS, but once we had booked, we got an email with directions.||It is a good place to stop on your way to Bergen or Hardanger.||||We stayed in a lovely junior suite, with a very nice bedroom with a soft and nice bed, a good sized bedroom with shower, and a small kitchen/living room.
