    The room was relatively small but very unique. There was also no kettle in the room, but considering the affordable price, this was reasonable. The parking area was a bit of a distance from the front desk, and the dirt road wasn't very suitcase-friendly for large travel bags.

    The hotel's location is excellent, right at the starting point of the Trolltunga hiking trail, and they offer free parking for guests. This was the only hotel we booked with breakfast on our trip to Norway, and the breakfast was quite generous. Staying at the hotel had a significant advantage as we were able to hike to Trolltunga twice, once on the first afternoon and again on the second morning, of course, thanks to the good weather.

    The best place for one (or maybe more) night stay during hike to Preikestolen.
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Budget Twin Room Preikestolhytta
    • Stayed 1 night

    Buildings are old (but condition is excellent) and sound isolation is very poor. You can hear every step and conversation not only neighbors but almost every inhabitant of a building.

    Super location near the starting point of the hike to Preikestolen. Easy to get there either by car or a bus (e.g. Pulpit Rock tour), about 1 hour from the city central bus station. Cool view to the lake and mountains. Nice restaurant with super tasty food (salmon is awesome) and cafe. It's always possible to buy some snacks for a hike (you can find them in restaurant/cafe/tourist shops). Facilities like frisbeegolf, hottub, sauna. Another hike besides Preikestolen I'd recommend is Moslifjellet. It's much less crowdy (I actually didn't meet anyone on that hike), a bit more challenging and wild. It's not visible on google maps but you can find it on e.g. openstreetmaps.

    The breakfast options were relatively limited compared to the other comparably priced hotels we stayed at on our trip in Norway, and the egg bake was over cooked. I wish there had been a sauna option that was cheaper than renting the entire private floating sauna, but it looked like they were building one while we were there.

    The location was absolutely stunning, and incredibly peaceful and serene in the morning and early evening after the hiking crowds cleared out. The restaurant had fantastic food for lunch and dinner given the remote setting.

    There is a bit noisy when people walk nearby the room.

    It is the best place to stay for pulpit rock hiking! Even though we met the storm and cannot see the beautiful view on top of pulpit rock (only fog and rain on that day). The view from the place we stay is really beautiful. The room is a bit small but acceptable. We also love the view from the room. The shared bathroom is clean. The breakfast in the main building is really good with variety of food you can enjoy. Easy to walk to pulpit rock start point, cafe, souvenir shop and bus stop.

    To me it seemed very overpriced for very basic accommodation. Access to the Lodge is up steps or along a travel path, so not great if you are travelling with suitcases. We heard plenty of noise from other guests walking on the wooden floors and from doors slamming shut. Room entry details are sent by sms to your registered cell, which is fine unless you are travelling on a travel sim...

    The selling point is the location right next to the walking tracks, and it delivers on that. If you want a chance of beating the tour buses this is one way, but if you want to leave by 6am you won't get breakfast. The breakfast is good, but I suggest you plan to arrive close to when it starts. The parking is included in the room rate, which was handy as we drove to Jorpeland for dinner each night. There are plenty of EV chargers, of the slow variety, which are close to the Lodge.

    Shower is efficient, but the floor gets wet everywhere Breakfast area was very crowded somehow

    Proximity to the trail, beautiful location on a lake, simplicity of ghe hotel, yet spaciousness - the rooms are on a small side (at least, if you travel with kids), but lots of common places.
