Beautiful building and we loved the diningroom. Free parking is appreciated. Staff was very attentive and kind.

Amazing breakfast

We hung our towels up as we did not need new ones each day but they were replaced each day We required more in our tea and coffee box such as sugar and creamer BUT Staff were fantastically friendly and helpful

It was a wonderful stay at the Thon Hotel Sandven, Norway. The hotel was very welcoming to guests. Cleanliness was great. The breakfast had an elaborate selections.

Beautiful restored Austrian Chateau style hotel in a gorgeous area. Clean, well-maintained. Great breakfast buffet and friendly staff. Situated in a stunningly beautiful location with nice walking trails. Highly recommend.

Staff was very friendly. We are vegetarian, they made special dinner for us. View from the room was spectacular. Breakfast was great. Place was clean. Overall, it was great place.

We have stayed in 7 hotels during our trip to Norway and this was the worse and the only one we regret staying. It is quite pricey and it's advertised as this very relaxing beach hotel, for us it was not! They gave us a run of the mill room close to the main road, in an annex of the main building, room was just dull and depressing. Reception lady was missing curtesy and it had a "we don't care" about you sort of feel. Parking was free and very convenient and we had a good breakfast...but that was it.

I arrived at te hotel very sick with Salmonella poisoning, so during my stay I did not experience it as intended. My thanks goes to the outstanding staff! They let us cancel the next night in the hotel, they provided two small bottels of apple juice which, was dearly needed just to get a little bit of strength and they gave us a late check out the next day. Those two extra hours helped a lot actually. Best hospitality one can possibly get from a hotel. Thank you so much!

Beautiful historic hotel

The hotel room was nice, we have enjoyed our stay. However, it was disappointing that the restaurant was closed during our stay for dinners and there are not amazing dining options in the town.

フィヨルドが近くいい眺め

Staff lied to us about giving us the wrong room (we booked with one lagre bed) Truth is, the hotel was full and they put us in a room with twin beds instead of missing out on a booking. Also, the so called «fjord view» was a tiny window which didn’t open. Dinner was OK at best, we should have dropped the entree. For a hotel situated in Norways cider distrikt, their selection of local ciders was abysmal. Nice breakfast, but poor crowd control with regards to covid-19 and social distancing. Next time we’re in Hardanger we’ll stay at Utne Hotel or Ullensvang.

Bra rom. Hyggelig betjening. Svært bra frukost.

The old part of the hotel/restaurant/ reseption was nice. Our suite was not nice, there was a balcony, but the room was more like an institution room. All the walls had the same white colour. There was no pictures or any thing to make it cosy. And the room layout was really bad, a lot of empty space. Not at all worth the price. Breakfast and dinner in the restaurant was nice with good food.

Amazing location, clean and comfortable with friendly service and delicious food.

Absolutely beautiful historic hotel. Great location in a beautiful town. Food was excellent!

The hotel is situated in a lovely spot on the water in this historic town. It's a beautiful old building, although our three-bedroom apartment was in the modern addition on the back. We made use of the full kitchen and were glad for plenty of space for our family of four. The breakfast, which was included, was delicious. Parking was a breeze in the underground garage.

beautiful lake viewgreat hotel location - short distance to Steinsdalsfossenvery friendly & helpful staffgood a la carte menuunfortunately the parking lot is located near our room, a bit noisy during checkin period & early morningwindow cannot be opened, can only see the lake behind the glass :(better if more fruits & varieties of food at breakfast buffet

Lovely setting on the water with views of mountains and pretty gardens. The dining rooms were beautiful and decorated in period furnishings. The rooms (we had a suite) were quite spacious but in need of care and updating. Furniture was worn, lightbulbs were missing, dusting was needed. Once grand hotel needs TLC.

Super lovely place that has been owned by the same charming and delightful family for 9(?) generations. Great staff! Had such a wonderful stay and the most delicious meals. Breakfast waffles and jams were homemade and soooo yummy good! Best overall dinner we had in Norway but could use a deeper wine list less orientated to the American market. We stayed in the historical part of the hotel which is sweetly decorated in the traditional, old fashion style. A bit noisy because it is old and one can hear people walking in hallways but we enjoyed the decorating effort. The modern part has great views over the lake and a private decks to sit outside. Take time to hang out in the garden or on the main porch looking out at the lake. Great walks that go along the side of the lake. They had a fire going inside in the parlour and we meet some very nice people there traveling. The staff really made an effort to make sure our stay was great and we definitely appreciated it! Oh, can't forget our most dashing owner host for the art tour at night. So much fun talking with him! Poor man! Talked his ear off. Could have gabble with him all night! Already to planning to stay again on our next trip to Norway. Quite happy! Great vibe! Huzzah!

No major issues but felt hotel was snooty. Didn’t like the idea of eating in a passageway - went to Chinese next door - very good.

Wonderful location looking over the water and scenic views, very pleasant hotel staff and helpful . Clean and comfortable room we really enjoyed our stay

Hotel consists of historic building and a modern one, modern is blended in so you practically can’t see it from the street. Breakfast buffet is included, WiFi is fast and free, TV has HDMI so bring your FireStick or another favorite streaming device. Plenty of parking.

It is a nice property, in the middle of being updated. It is not as good as other Thon properties, but it is very nice.

The location was great and the weather could not have been better. The food was also tops and the facilities good. We missed having two comfortable chairs but thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Stayed in the new part. Simple but very adequate. Lovely quaint old main building. All staff here were exceptional. Marta and Geir really helped with my every need. Its a happy team and the best place to stay.

The Sandven Hotel is in a historic building with the charme from the 1800s. The room size fits to historic standards, however regularly two traditionalrooms represent one modern room. That gives the feeling of Junior Suites, Superior rooms or similar. Delicious and rich breakfast with fresh vegetables, fruits and plenty more.Walking distance to downtown and historic shipyard.

Very few choices in norheimsund and the Thon hotel is good - the only reason I am not saying great is that I agree with other reviewers in that their food is very poor . Breakfast was ok - we had dinner the night before and it was really only barely edible the lobster bisque was fishy and tasted old the other dinner options were only marginal . They need to do better in the food department!!!
