The spectacular natural beauty of the area, the hotel’s location right next to the dock, and the Viking furnishings in the room and the nearby restaurant.
Set in the Nærøy Valley, this camping is surrounded by high mountains with a view of the Kjelfossen Waterfall. It offers an on-site kiosk and cottages with a patio and kitchen facilities.

Fantastic location just a short walk from the harbour. It was basic but super clean and comfortable. We hired bedding and towels as advised on the rebooking info.

Dinner buffet was very good. (Like all things expensive for a Brit).
Room looked up the mountain? Poor view, but booking said good view.
Had to leave outside door open all night for fresh air, but no securing arrangements.
Staff were excellent and very knowledgeable.

Parking right in front of the hotel. The room was amazing and we even got upgraded to a room with balcony which was lovely. The staff was very nice and polite. Despite the dinner menu not having many options the venison burger was phenomenal, and the included breakfast had plenty of options too. The bed were comfy and shower amazing, both shampoo/shower gel and conditioner were available.
Vangsgaarden Gjestgiveri is located in the oldest buildings in the village of Aurland. Situated on the shores of Aurlandsfjord, it offers wonderful views of the surrounding mountains.

Fantastic location and outlook from room stunning. Outdoor furniture was very good and comfortable. There are a couple of other restaurant's near by and a Spar if all else fails.

A spectatular setting where you can just relax and soak up the magnificent scenery. Fire pits to keep you warm while you sit outside (with a drink). The staff were extremely friendly. Right next to jetty where you can pick up the fabulous, all electric, boat to Flam (which is also just a 15 minute car journey away). The Viking Village is a 3 minute walk away and well worth visiting - something we nearly dismissed but really pleased we didn't! Menu a little limited for those staying more than a few day but the food we did order was excellent. A unique and wonderful end to our dream holiday!

Very enjoyable Viking themed stay with great scenery good staff and great meals. The glass roof gave amazing view of the sheer walls and three waterfalls in the morning. Very comfortable! Deer stew went down extremely well.

Nicely renovated comfortable no frills hotel in a quiet location, out of season. A shuttle bus or ferry made the journey into Flam easy.
The breakfast was buffet style, good choice of mixed cold meats and cheeses. The evening meals were disappointing, and expensive as you expect in Norway. Having said that if you are only staying a couple of days a good stop over hotel.

Location was the most + point of our stay. Fjord was just a stones throw away. Other points and places were a drive distance and flam was reachable both via ferry and shuttle.
Food for vegetarians is a little problematic in hotel as the buffet served has less options for veggies. There is Shell fuel pump and Xtra store that has some quick foods.

Gudvangen offers a ton of scenery and not much else.
Gudvangen offers a ton of scenery and not much else. Our overnight stay was more than enough time to enjoy a dinner at the only place in town, a brief hike to the WWII bunkers the following morning and time at the Njardarheimr Viking Village for a few hours until our bus left for Voss in the afternoon. Everything is within walking distance.

We enjoyed the Viking Village at Gudvangen, and the view of the mountains and waterfalls was superb. We were able to purchase food items at the nearby Joker gas station, which was well-stocked with ready made/easily prepared foods. We didn't get to do the kayaking available there, but that would have added a bonus. A very nice town!
Gudvangen Fjordtell is right on the fjord, with incredible views all around. We stayed in a family apartment just down the street (not in the main building) that had plenty of room for a family of four. The seafood restaurant on the property was very good. Gudvangen is tiny - there's the Fjordtell, some camping grounds, the boat dock, a gas station with a small food market (Joker), and the Viking Village. There's a little more going on in Flaam, but we enjoyed staying in the quiet of Gudvangen.
Despite booking a standard room, I was pleasantly surprised to be upgraded to a room with a beautiful view for the same price. The room was very clean and comfortable, providing a great night's sleep.
The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, even providing a take-out breakfast when I had to leave early. Their excellent service made my stay truly memorable.
I highly recommend Gudvangen Fjordtell for a wonderful stay. I will definitely be back here again!
Location, location, location. Fantastic views on the mountains with views on 5+ waterfall’s and more if it has been raining, the camping grounds are spacious with a lot of grass, playing fields and the site is near the ferry to Kaupanger and the Flåm-railway. Very nice staff and a little cafe with a camp fire for guests.
Facilities were excellent and clean. The chalet has a covered porch for dining al fresco.
Very clean, well serviced and a good base for Gudvangen/Flam. We were a little concerned beforehand about the shared toilet/shower thing, but in our two night stay it was never an issue. Shared facilities, like the bedroom, were very clean and other guests were very discreet. Another bonus was the free use of the washing machine and tumble dryer; much appreciated. Very good stay.
The room was spacious, so the bathroom, with a nice view over the viking village and the mountains. Staff was very friendly. Location is amazing, right at the end of the Gudvangen fjord. Restaurant serves quality food. I loved to sit outside sipping a glass of mead while contemplating the beautiful evening view.
Accommodation (shabby attempt at being Viking style, probably would have done better without) was worn out, staff short handed and looked overworked and tired, food was lacklustre, room was really just for a clean bed and shower nothing more and nothing less. But was a good location for exploring Gudvangen.
I can't speak exactly for the budget hotel facilities because we were upgraded for free to the fjordhotell down the street (same owner). It was so nice, the room had a sky light you could see stars at night, from bed. All of the staff were so incredibly kind and the view all around were stunning!
Absolutely beautiful location! We had originally wanted to stay in Flam, but very glad we stayed here instead without the cruise ships interrupting the view of the fjord. The scenery and onsite restaurant options were fantastic. Quadruple room was the perfect apartment size for x4 guests
Loved that we had multiple rooms/beds for our family of 5. Also loved having access to a kitchen. The apartment felt brand new - everything in great condition. And we loved the view of the falls from the deck and staying Gudvangen for the night. Quiet and so beautiful.
The hotel is amazing! The facilities are great: nice towel and linen, amazing food from the restaurant, and the astonishing view of the fjords. But the best part of the hotel was the people, they were super friendly, nice and made us feel super comfortable.
I was upgraded to the Viking Suite and had an amazing stay. The staff was very friendly and guided me to the areas around the hotel. Due to winter, and the icy paths, the hotel staff warned us and informed us on the different routes we could take.
The view is perfect. The staff is friendly and helpful. The room is cozy, clean and new. The price is reasonable. The supermarket and gas station is nearby. Highly recommend.
The spectacular natural beauty of the area, the hotel’s location right next to the dock, and the Viking furnishings in the room and the nearby restaurant.
