Sogndalstrand Kulturhotell — Hotel in Sokndal

Stayed in Sogndalstrand for 2 nights and were made to feel very welcome. We stayed in Skredderhuset (Taylor’s house) which has two bedrooms - room 1 and 2.

I was taken aback by the kindness. This is the sort of rare thing one really remembers! The atmosphere in the breakfast room and out on the terrace (where I ate my unexpected treat) was superb. On the basis of this fantastic experience I am very much looking forward to returning and staying, and would have no hesitation in recommending the Sogndalstrand...
