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.Jennifer - 10Scored 10

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 £127.02 per night8.2Scored 8.2Very goodRated very good· 459 reviewsStaff: Very friendly and helpful. We felt that we made new friends with the youthful team. Pool table: Fun to hang out in the evening and play Location, location, location. Beautiful view right outside your window with a small balcony for reading. Jumping into the fjord from the stone steps in front of the property. Simply beautiful view while floating on my back. There is also a sauna that can be rented through a separate company via a website. Bring a good book and be prepared to slow down and breathe.ColleenUnited 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 - 8.9Scored 8.9FabulousRated fabulous· 383 reviewsIt was right on the fjord and the room was very nice. The beds were comfortable and the windows had curtains to keep it dark but they opened easily and the windows also opened. It was very quiet at night. The staff was friendly. Breakfast was very good with fresh eggs and breads and many other nice foods. There was a restaurant on site w delicious dinners. There was a quick bus to balestrand and nearby good hiking. Excellent hiking.

- From £260.77 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 397 reviewsGorgeous view! Buffet is excellent and so is the staff at the restaurant. I’d also recommend lunch at the bar. The lounges were elegant and perfect for relaxing with a coffee in the evening. While the room price was expensive, I found the cost of food and drinks to not be overpriced. We had a really nice stay and it’s worthwhile to experience the beauty of this hotel and the surroundings.
JustineUnited States - From £112.08 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 697 reviewsBalestrand apparently has had two periods of investment: in the 19th century, and in the 1970s. The hotels there are a mix between the two. Some additional brushup would help. This being said, the Midtnes hotel is a welcoming place, with nice views over the Sognefjord.RobertGermany
