Topp service. Et sted man virkelig kan slappe av

Its ancient charm

Nothing

lovely property with lots of interesting history. great location with the garden and the lake. excellent hiking in the area or small day drives. the staff was excellent! the food very good. all in all a great experience! we have been visiting before and will return soon again.

Everything, location, room, service and as for the food...exquisite (Michelin standard). Room was quiet, pitch dark with no light intrusion and windows you can open right out for that fresh mountain air. One of the finest hotels we've ever stayed in, yes it's pricey but treat yourself, you won't regret it!

Bed on the soft side

A beautiful hotel which clearly has an amazing Hotel Manager. Staff were handpicked throughout Europe and were all exceptional. The restaurant was incredible and catered for my vegetarian diet with no problem. The setting and grounds were stunning. The whole 1894 thing was great fun and made it an immersive experience rather than just another hotel stay.

Nothing.

The garden The scenery

The food

The hotel is placed at a fantastic place at Dalen, in a large and lush park near lake Bandak. The whole hotel oozes of history and luxury, in a sort of old and slightly rickety way.

The hotel management stated during our stay that they aimed for the top tier in the luxury hotel market, and would strive to reach this level of service. This review is with this goal in mind: The staff in the restaurant and during breakfast was undertrained and not attentive in the manner one would expect of a top tier luxury hotel or at a similar restaurant. We both experienced and saw staff forget orders/information during multitasking and they were hard to get hold of. The food was delicious, but the staff did not give any information about the courses as they were served. In most top tier restaurants, the food is presented in just a few sentenced describing the properties and where the ingredients come from (locally i hope). To better this score, I recommend further training of the serving staff to reach true top tier excellence in the future.
