Fossheim Turisthotell

Central Norway


This historic family hotel at the eastern end of town has all-wood rooms in the main hotel building (we especially like rooms 401 and 402 for the balconies and views). There are also luxurious log cabins with modern interiors and simpler, cheaper rooms (some with good views) in the adjacent annexe; although annexe rooms have dreadful sound insulation.
