Amazing place!
If you are looking for a 5-star hotel with all facilities, please do not book here. However, if you simply want a good place to sleep, a bar with excellent vibes and welcoming staff, this is the place to be!
Sandra is an excellent host who is very welcoming and helpful to all guests. Although it was mentioned that there was no breakfast provided, she suprised us with complimentary croissants and coffee. Combine that with a wonderful view of the fjord and good weather and you have an experience that many 5* hotels can only dream of.
Nice bar with local ciders, pool table and musical atmosphere.

We arrived very late - greeted kindly and welcomed ++. The room was wonderful - spacious and overlooking the fjord. The best part was the lovely polite, gentle and welcoming staff. Nothing too much trouble. We wished we had stayed much longer... Thank you Dragsvik - we hope to return.

I don’t normally leave reviews, but we absolutely loved our stay so we had to! The place is in perfect location, has one of the most amazing views I’ve seen and is very spacious. The owner was very quick to reply, and very accommodating. The kitchen and bathroom have been updated so the current photos don’t do it justice! We were very warm and comfortable and it was nice to catch up on some washing. Highly recommend staying here!

Take the fast ferry (4 hours) from Bergen and slow down and enjoy the glorious surroundings. Be prepared to relax and enjoy the quiet. We ate our meals and enjoyed cocktails at the Kviknes Hotel. We slept at the Balestrand Hotel and enjoyed the quiet.CColleenUnited States - 10Scored 10
Arriving by ferry drops you at the heart of the town.
Arriving by ferry drops you at the heart of the town. Walking south along Kong Beles Veg for about 2 kilometers affords beautiful views of St. Olaf's church, the picturesque valley, the beach, the hills, and several "Swiss-style" charming old houses. A must-see is Balestrand's little beach and the deep, clear pools beside it where I sat for ages soaking up the sound of the water's tranquil lapping on the rocks and watching fish zip around way below the surface of the crystal-clear water. I even caught people swimming and sunning themselves at midday in late September! There were not many dining options post-tourist-season, but I had the soup at the chocolatery called Holmen within the main triangle of town, and though I found it overpriced (compared to prices in Bergen), it was delicious.

Our family absolutely loved staying at Frydenlund near Balestrand. Everything in the property's information was accurate. Great hosts who helped us when we had some questions, Views are wonderful and several areas in which to relax and enjoy them. Check-in was easy as there was a door code. While we would love to return to this part of Norway we would only do so if we could also stay at Frydenlund.

Beautiful surroundings. Very fun to travel with a speedboat combined with historical tour. Cider house had delicious food. Highly recommendable. Perfect place for anyone who loves outdoor activities and want to be in a beautiful environment.

Beautiful location and friendly small town.
Beautiful location and friendly small town. Unfortunately it rained quite heavy in September 2019 when we were there so that we couldn't do much biking and hiking as we had anticipated, but there was still enough to do to keep us occupied the day and a half that we spent there. Dinner with a piano concert in the Kviknes Hotel was particularly memorable.

Cute town with a lot packed into a small place.
Cute town with a lot packed into a small place. Walking around town is easy. There are two grocery stores and plenty of restaurants. We went to an English Mass at St Olaf's Church too. If we had arrived earlier in the day we might have had time to fish from the shores of the fjord.AmyUnited States

- From € 131.49 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 688 reviewsThe hotel is located in a great area of Balestrand, right off the water, next to a Stave style church, and walking distance to downtown. The room itself is outdated but the common areas of the house that you see in the ads is very comfortable with several areas to relax in. Breakfast had a good variety of foods and you eat in a dining room with a view of the water. The owner is very friendly and after I told him I was looking to see something specific while in Norway he went out of his way to make it happen which I really appreciated.JamieUnited States
- 9.1Scored 9.1SuperbRated superb· 8 reviewsEverything! Balestrand is the most beautiful place. And the view from our comfortable and well equipped little cabin was stunning. Inge, our host, was there to welcome us and was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. We could not fault our choice of location. The walking is amazing. May is reasonably quiet there, which suited us fine. The weather was incredible. No rain for the entire week. According to Inge, it was the best May he has ever known... he's lived there all his life and he's 69!!!
BarbaraUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0Very goodRated very good· 276 reviewsWe loved everything about our stay. Our room was lovely, as was our view, even in the rain. We were able to do our laundry. Breakfast was really nice. But our host, Magnar, truly made our stay great! He contacted the car rental for us and even printed maps for the next part of our holiday! The restaurant he recommended was one of the best meals we’ve had. We will be returning for a second stay because we had such a good experience.

- From € 305.94 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 394 reviewsI paid extra for a fjord view room, and we got a room with a balcony in the "modern" building on the 8th floor. The view was spectacular and well worth the extra cost. The view made the entire stay! The dinner buffet was bountiful and delicious. The breakfast buffet was good, but not as amazing as the dinner. We also ate in the hotel bar one night and that food was well prepared also.
MalindaUnited States - From € 149.02 per night8.2Scored 8.2Very goodRated very good· 456 reviewsStay here for the most stunning view of the fjord. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever had a more perfect view from a hotel window. If I could move into the hotel I would. The rooms are super simple, it won’t be rivaling the Four Seasons anytime soon but it’s perfectly comfortable and the view (make sure to book a water view!) makes everything worth it!MaryUnited States
