Super nice place to stay, the room was super. - a very good experience in every way. Had a super dinner in the restaurant and the breakfast was very nice too. The only thing you have to be prepared for is the walk very much uphill from the parking to the hotel with luggage - could be difficult if you have problems lifting or walking on uneven ground.

Great place

We arrived in the evening around the time19:30. It was a very warm welcome. The dinner was excellent. The service and atmosphere was great. The room was really good. Old and modern style. The shower was fantastic and high pressure. The area speaks for it self. There is so much information everywhere for your enjoyment

I would have preferred if you had told me that you were doing construction everywhere before I booked TWO rooms for 4 adults. Noisy flapping white tarps and ZERO views from any of the windows of BOTH rooms I rented.

Too many faults

Horribly warm room. No AC. Windows not supposed to be opened. Reception lent us a fan that did very little to help. Hardly slept at all. The bathroom/toilet was inside a frosted glass cube, which meant that privacy was not optimal. Also if you had to use the bathroom at night the whole hotel room was lit up and therefore woke your partner. The toilet didn’t seem to be designed for human anatomy. The seat was too narrow and the top lid had a deep edge that cut into your back if you tried to lean back.

Semester i Norge

Ett annorlunda hotell beläget i en gammal borg! Man kan verkligen känna historiens vingslag! Mycket trevlig personal, god mat och dryck. Rummet var väldigt litet med skador på väggarna, men rent och snyggt. Vi hade problem med att hitta parkering, reception och hotell. Borde vara bättre skyltat och mer information i bokningsbekräftelsen.

Why the glass box?

Bra opphold på et meget spesielt hotell. Merkelige glassbokser utgjør veggene til badet. Usikker på om jeg liker de, spesielt i et sånnt gammelt og koselig bygg.

Middag var veldig god Frokosten var ikke som forventet , ikke delikat oppdekking,brød lå i plastpose, stadig tomt for ting. Burde være duker på alle bordene. Forvirrende uklare regler for rabatt ordningen. Skilt på veggen at hotellet er historisk

Veldig stilig med overnatting på gammel festning. Vi hadde familierom for 4 gjester, men sovesofa hadde ingen god madrass. Stålfjærer gikk nesten igjennom madrassen. Veldig lytt imellom rommene. Blide og imøtekommende ansatte. Litt stusselig frokost med noen varer som hadde gått over dato.

Fantastisk lokasjon og mye historie som fungere som et spennende alternativ til et mer tradisjonelt hotell. Negative: Problemer med visse strømuttak som ikke fungerte. Samt det var fullt for middag (julebord) men vi ble ikke informert ved innsjekk. Endte med at vi måtte ned til Kongsvinger for middag/kvelds. Heldigvis hadde vi bil, men greit å informere gjester så tidlig så mulig mtp småbarn osv.
