Top Aurland Hotel Reviews

Heimly

Heimly

8/10 Good
"This is probably one of the most basic rooms we have ever stayed in, a cross between a college dormitory and a sanitorium. The room was bare, with tiny beds, a tiny shower and no closet. Unfortunately, in Flam, that’s what you get for $550 per night. You pay for the view, which was amazing, and the included breakfast and dinner, which was decent but not exceptional."
