We stayed in the “newer” part which was a disappointment. We had hoped to stay in historic side. Breakfast was wonderful. Beautiful view from out table by the window.

We didn't stay due to the substandard nature of the accommodations. We left after ten minutes. This is the first time we have ever felt the need to leave a place we'd booked.

Take the fast ferry (4 hours) from Bergen and slow down and enjoy the glorious surroundings. Be prepared to relax and enjoy the quiet. We ate our meals and enjoyed cocktails at the Kviknes Hotel. We slept at the Balestrand Hotel and enjoyed the quiet.CColleenUnited States of America - 10Scored 10
Arriving by ferry drops you at the heart of the town.
Arriving by ferry drops you at the heart of the town. Walking south along Kong Beles Veg for about 2 kilometers affords beautiful views of St. Olaf's church, the picturesque valley, the beach, the hills, and several "Swiss-style" charming old houses. A must-see is Balestrand's little beach and the deep, clear pools beside it where I sat for ages soaking up the sound of the water's tranquil lapping on the rocks and watching fish zip around way below the surface of the crystal-clear water. I even caught people swimming and sunning themselves at midday in late September! There were not many dining options post-tourist-season, but I had the soup at the chocolatery called Holmen within the main triangle of town, and though I found it overpriced (compared to prices in Bergen), it was delicious.Jennifer - 10Scored 10

Our family absolutely loved staying at Frydenlund near Balestrand. Everything in the property's information was accurate. Great hosts who helped us when we had some questions, Views are wonderful and several areas in which to relax and enjoy them. Check-in was easy as there was a door code. While we would love to return to this part of Norway we would only do so if we could also stay at Frydenlund.RichardCanada - 10Scored 10
Beautiful surroundings.
Beautiful surroundings. Very fun to travel with a speedboat combined with historical tour. Cider house had delicious food. Highly recommendable. Perfect place for anyone who loves outdoor activities and want to be in a beautiful environment.CecilieNorway - 10Scored 10
Beautiful location and friendly small town.
Beautiful location and friendly small town. Unfortunately it rained quite heavy in September 2019 when we were there so that we couldn't do much biking and hiking as we had anticipated, but there was still enough to do to keep us occupied the day and a half that we spent there. Dinner with a piano concert in the Kviknes Hotel was particularly memorable.

Cute town with a lot packed into a small place.
Cute town with a lot packed into a small place. Walking around town is easy. There are two grocery stores and plenty of restaurants. We went to an English Mass at St Olaf's Church too. If we had arrived earlier in the day we might have had time to fish from the shores of the fjord.AmyUnited States of America

- From $151.71 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very GoodRated very good· 668 reviewsThe hotel is located in a great area of Balestrand, right off the water, next to a Stave style church, and walking distance to downtown. The room itself is outdated but the common areas of the house that you see in the ads is very comfortable with several areas to relax in. Breakfast had a good variety of foods and you eat in a dining room with a view of the water. The owner is very friendly and after I told him I was looking to see something specific while in Norway he went out of his way to make it happen which I really appreciated.JamieUnited States of America
- 8.0Scored 8.0Very GoodRated very good· 276 reviewsWe were looking for a place to stay between Flam and Geiranger. We are happy that we went a little out of our way to visit Balestrand and stay at Kringsjå Hotel. After we missed a ferry and called them, they accommodated a late check in. Our room was a clean and comfortable. It had a great view over Sognefjorden, very iconic. Breakfast was very good. There was plenty of parking. Balestrand made for a really pleasant morning walk.
MattUnited States of America - 8.1Scored 8.1Very GoodRated very good· 385 reviewsThe location of the hotel was just perfect and the view of the fjord from the room was spectacular. The room in the more modern part was very comfortable, spacious, quiet and very clean. The breakfast offered a lot of choice and was in the restaurant room with a great view of the fjord. The old part contains several lounges and a very comfortable terrace which can be used by hotel guests. The staff was very welcoming and helpful.
JulieFrance - 8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 66 reviewsI don’t normally leave reviews, but we absolutely loved our stay so we had to! The place is in perfect location, has one of the most amazing views I’ve seen and is very spacious. The owner was very quick to reply, and very accommodating. The kitchen and bathroom have been updated so the current photos don’t do it justice! We were very warm and comfortable and it was nice to catch up on some washing. Highly recommend staying here!

- From $151.71 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very GoodRated very good· 668 reviewsBalestrand apparently has had two periods of investment: in the 19th century, and in the 1970s. The hotels there are a mix between the two. Some additional brushup would help. This being said, the Midtnes hotel is a welcoming place, with nice views over the Sognefjord.RobertGermany
