Fretheim Hotel

We enjoyed our stay here very much. It's beautiful hotel in the heart of the small town of Flåm. We had a wonderful room with a balcony overlooking the harbor. The room was very clean and the staff were friendly. The hotel has a great breakfast buffet. We were only here for one night, but managed to get in a nice hike up above the town and over to a beautiful waterfall. We had an excellent time.

Nice room in a fantastic location. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful

Situated in a grand historic building facing the waterfront, with a multi-storey glass atrium and rustic bar that opened out into the gardens, this is clearly THE PLACE to stay in town. We enjoyed the dinner buffet upstairs at the Arven, particularly the fresh seafood selection, and a very generous breakfast spread the next morning. Our room was small and utilitarian, with a hiking trail a few yards behind the hotel building plainly visible from the widow, but noise was minimal in the evening, despite it being summer. There is left-luggage storage adjacent to the reception, which many people used to store bags while waiting for rooms to be made ready in the afternoon, or while waiting for onward transportation in the morning. Kudos to the staff: Despite it being high summer, and being slammed with cruise ship visitors and a whole batch of folks arriving on the same train as we had, the staff was cheerful and helpful, and got us all situated with amazing efficiency.
