The best available Hostels hotel to stay near Hordaland

April 29, 2023 Tonie Szymanski

Lying at the heart of Norway’s Western Fjord area, Hordaland is home to culturally rich Bergen, the country’s second largest city. Hardangerfjord, Norway’s second-longest fjord (and the third-longest in the world), is here too, and cruising along its scenic 110 miles is a top area activity. Leirvik, the second-biggest town in Hordaland, has the interesting open-air Sunnhordland Folk Museum. Set atop one of the country’s biggest glaciers, Folgefonna National Park has a popular summer ski center.

Have stayed 3 times

I've stayed three times and only once did I have a bad experience. I've stayed in both the double room (shared showers and toilets), and the room with attached kitchenette and bathroom. If you arrive after four, the doors are locked and we didn't receive a code to get in, as it mentioned we would. I tried calling both numbers and didn't get an answer. Luckily someone was coming out and when we went up to reception, there was a staff member there (he was trying to help a customer, probably why he didn't answer). The guests that night were extremely rowdy and loud, which was obnoxious. The other two times, there were no issues, check in was easy. Shared showers were clean, shared kitchen was convenient. It did get a little cold one night and the room heater worked great. Do make sure to pay for towels on check in, if you'll be needing them.

Wonderful budget-friendly accommodation a little ways outside Bergen center

Reviewed By 109madison

We had a great stay here. Room was spacious, comfortable and clean. No large lockers for storing bags/backpacks but did have smaller lockers for valuables and maybe a smaller bag. Took about 20 min by bus to get to Bergen city center (but would be a bit quicker by car). Very close to Ulriken hiking trail. Would recommend!

Voss Hostel

Great breakfast and location

Reviewed By FrodeM_13

Great location, ok rooms and a simply fantastic breakfast buffet make this a value for money choice in Voss. The all-organic breakfast made our day, with many vegetables and fruits from the nearby farm, and bread from the local bakery. Tip: ask for lake view if available.

Mjolfjell Mountain Lodge

A the top of the magnificent Raundalsriver, as the northern-western portal to Hardangervidda, you find Mjølfjell Ungdomsherberge. A cosy boutique hotel located only a hike away from both Ulvik & Hardangerfjorden or the picturesque Nerøyfjorden with its Flam. With a big fireplace, local food delicacies, swimming pool and sauna, its a playground all aro! Great beds, pizzabakery, freshly roasted coffee every day.

Pleasant stay - friendly staff - good food

Reviewed By 827lillianj

I had a very pleasant stay at Mjølfjell, beautiful located by a powerful river. Very friendly staff. Lovely homemade food, also tasty vegetarian. Expect the standard of a former youth hostel, simple rooms, some with shared bathroom. The atmosphere however is very nice and relaxed, with a fireplace, nice common areas, outdoor terrace etc. If you plan to take the train, use a backpack or bag that can be carried on your back, it is a short, but steep trail down to the hotel.

Trolltunga Studios

Decent affordable place

Reviewed By Pétur S

Me and my girlfriend stayed there for over night. Wanted to see Odda after watching Ragnarök on Netflix. I've seen people complain about how close this is to and old factory, but this factory was an important location in the show, so I was extra excited for that ? The rooms were OK, not the best beds or showers, and so weird to have to pay extra for linen, kinda ridiculous, but the staff was fantastic. Young British girl and a young guy were very nice and helpful ?

Nice big apartment for about 5 persons.

Reviewed By Siri S

It is not essay to travel with dogs in Norway. We found this Place and it was great. We never saw the owners, and we were the only guests for those two nights we spent there. The apartment was nice and big, and it had a small kitchen included. The is also a large kitchen available for guests. Another good part was a big lawn where the dogs could have some fun. No sheep so it was safe to let the dogs run on the lawn while we watched all the time, of course. The place is some 15 kilometers (10 miles) fromVoss along a very winding and narrow road.
