Fjell & Fjord Eidfjord Hotel

Bergen & the Southwestern Fjords


If you're after a view of the fjord, then this modern hotel just uphill from Eidfjord's main road can certainly oblige. Rooms are rather bland in style, but here it's all about the scenery outside your window. Downstairs there's a pleasant lounge and restaurant with similarly fine views. Interconnecting rooms make it useful for families.
