This hotel is convenient, the bed was soft and comfortable. The room is clean and well maintained. It was quiet even though we were on the Main Street. Everything is within walking distance.
Going to start with the only negative, check in is 4:00pm very late when the town pretty much rolls up it's sidewalks at 6:00pm probably better served if check in was 2:00 or so, that said i would stay here again and again check in/out was supper easy, Room was spotless, plenty of towels, just a great place to stay.
My wife and I had a wonderful stay at Viking Inn! You can tell the new owners, Angie and Matt, are putting a lot of care and attention to detail into updating the property. Everything was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The only minor thing for taller guests (I'm 6'2") is that the showerhead is a bit low, but everything else was fantastic. Highly recommended, and we would definitely stay here again!
Great experience. Check in was fantastic since we got the code prior sent to us through the app. This allowed us to check in later than we had anticipated and our room was just as we view the images. Love our king suite and it was a great location walking distance to many of the places we wanted to check out. We will be back for sure.
Viking Inn provided the perfect night stay for our short trip to Slovang- the location is perfect on the towns main street and walking distance to all of Slovang's activities!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was very clean and with a Scandinavian decor much like a cottage. They offered a contactless checkin but were ready to help when I had a question
Private and safe. I highly recommend this hotel
Very cute and convenient place to stay. My kids and I enjoyed the proximity to all Solvang has to offer. Parking is very easy. Contactless check in was great.
