We loved our time at the Hjelle Hotel!! It was our favorite place in Norway. We only wished we had been able to stay longer. The location is absolutely beautiful. Nothing like looking out your window and seeing the beautiful lake and mountains. Lorenz and his staff were kind and welcoming hosts. We ate several meals at the hotel restaurant and everything was delicious. I highly recommend this hotel!

I'd have to say the setting of this property is spectacular. I was in awe soaking in the beauty surrounding us. There are nice walks nearby that allow you to absorb it all. The motel room was adequate and small but the walls were thin and we could hear the others next door. Another person staying there said the hotel rooms on the top floor are quieter. We enjoyed the breakfast and ping pong table and would love to return again in the future.

Fantastic Hotel from another time!
This was our favorite stay of our entire trip to Norway! Beautiful vistas, a waterfall within hiking distance and warm, friendly service from the owners and staff that made us feel at home immediately. The evening dinner we had at the Hjelle Hotel was absolutely perfect! The walks we took here were so beautiful and everything was so peaceful! Cannot rate it high enough!

This was one of my husbands and I favorite places we stayed here in Norway. It felt like staying with family. By far the most beautiful location, we even took a cold swim. The dinner was excellent, so delicious. We stayed in the motel external building and it was so clean and such a cute vintage place. We loved it! Highly recommend!

This is the best place my family have stayed in Norway! It is peaceful and the view is spectacular! The host was so sweet. The hotel has a lot of its personal historical artifacts that staying there makes you feel part of. I wish we had more time so we could take the tow boat out! We will be back!

A classic, old hotel set at the edge of a fjord. Comfortable and quaint rooms. Owners are present and very friendly & helpful. A perfect place to break up a long holiday of traveling around Norway. Tasty dinners are served as the next closest meal options are 20 K away.

We loved our stay at Hjelle Hotel! It was an extremely charming and historic family owned property and the owner and staff went way out of their way to make sure we enjoyed our visit and put in a lot of time helping us with our travel plans the next day. We loved our large room with the sunporch. The setting and view were unforgettable, looking out at the lake and high mountains topped with glaciers. The location was perfect for exploring the fjords. The food at dinner and breakfast was fabulous. The dining room was lovely.

Great location for day trips!
We had a very nice 4-night stay. Lorentz was a great host. We chose this location due to its location and easy day trips to Stryn/Loen, Geiranger, Briksdalen Glacier and Lom. The setting was beautiful. We ate one dinner at the hotel and it was excellent but fairly expensive. We ate other meals in Stryn and Geiranger. Our room (315) had a partial view of the lake, but mostly overlooked the road. The room got a bit warm for us since there is no AC. We opened the windows which helped. Several good walks/hikes close to the property as well. Breakfast was very nice. Very clean rooms and bathroom. Mini grocery store 5 minutes away. The Hotels.com site says self service laundry is available but it is not. Lorenze kindly washed our laundry for a small fee. Overall a great location for day trips to common sites in this part of Norway.

Dog-friendly, lovely views, bygone charm
The surrounding area is fantastically beautiful. Boating on the lake is possible, although we did not partake. The price is a bit high, but it is reasonable for the area. It is certainly more affordable than staying in Geiranger, which is less than an hour's drive away. The hotel has a very historic charm, which may appeal to those looking to stay in a hotel of a bygone era. The rooms are small, and the furnishings and decor are of the antique variety. Bonus points for being dog-friendly!

Wonderful location!!
Too bad we couldn’t stay here longer. It would’ve been nice to explore the area. The older main building had wonderful areas to sit and relax. The included breakfast was excellent. The owner was very friendly and helpful. The room was clean. the area that the hotel is situated in was very quiet. Nice view of the lake also.

We spent a night at Hjelle Hotel on our recent rad trip in Norway. It was one of our fav places we stayed on our trip. The location is fantastic - right on a lake with amazing mountain backdrop. The owners are amazing and were very helpful during our stay. The rooms in the motel are clean and cozy! The breakfast in the morning was great! We enjoyed our stay and would certainly recommend to others.

Quaint hotel in an amazing setting, great for a quiet retreat away from the more touristy hubs and easy proximity to some spectacular drives. The setting is surreal and no picture shared will do justice. Dinner was excellent. Good breakfast with an option to pack a to-go lunch.
