The Stalheim has possibly one of the best views of any hotel. It also has access to great hiking. But, the hotel itself is just okay. It's equivalent to an older American motel. Much of the staff is very young and international and likable. But don't expect a five-star experience just because it is ghastly expensive ($6 for a cup... More

We used this hotel as a stop over on a self-conducted Norway in Nutshell trip to the fjords. The hotel is perched on the mountainside with a fantastic view of the glacial valley below. The view was very much like looking at part of Yosemite. We requested a "view" room and were not disappointed. The rooms are better than basic,... More

Stalheim Hotel was probably once grand but that time is long past. Rooms and bathrooms are basic, to be generous, and the public areas are also a little tired. There are posters all over the hotel of how it featured in a 'must see' hotels of the world guide in the 1980s and I don't think much money has been... More

Stayed here for 7 days on a HF Holidays guided walking holiday...Our room was clean and somewhat dated but the views were sensational from our room... the bathroom was spotlessly clean and warm and the shower was great with ample hot water and pressure...The breakfasts and dinners were buffet style and the quantity and quality were exceptional...Huge choices and we...

I stayed for a week on a walking holiday. The hotel is not luxurious, but is of a good standard, certainly better than 'basic', very clean & tidy and certainly not 'shabby'. The single room that I had was very spacious. The vast majority of rooms do in fact have excellent views. Staff are very friendly and helpful - the... More

Like so many other travelers, I explored Norway partly by train via the Norway in a Nutshell itinerary. I wanted to stop along my route from Oslo to Bergen, and I chose Stalheim because of its location and nature/hiking trails. It was a little bit pricey for such a small, basic room, but the location and the views more than... More

1 night stay. A loveliest & friendly receptionist greeted us on arrival. We had a overlooking the fjord high up in the mountain. Spectular. Evening buffet and Breakfast were great. Room was a comfortable 3.5 star. Hotel impressive due to age. Bit pricey, but we had a view and a bit of history.

I have a love/hate relationship with this hotel. It has a stunning location with an unforgettable view from the garden. The lounges are interesting as well with the many pieces of antique furniture. As a guest you never really feel very welcome and the “service” is mediocre. The Norwegian Buffet Dinner is not good and there are too many empty... More

Because of the fabulous setting one would expect the Stalheim to be world class, attracting a top-end clientele with great service and amenities. Unfortunately it’s none of those things. The view is indeed incomparable, at the head of a picturesque value with shear rock walls, waterfalls, and mountain meadows. As soon as we arrived we walked through the lobby to... More
