The view from our room overlooking the river and town was really pretty. The WiFi was so slow it was hardly usable. The bathroom has no shelves to put anything, I had to leave my toiletries on the floor. It would be really helpful to have an EV charger at this hotel, there is none within walking distance. We had some food and beverage items that we wanted to keep cold but there is no refrigerator in the rooms and there was no ice available, they only had a tiny ice maker at the bar. There aren't many hotel options in Odda, this hotel was okay but we were lacking many things that would have made our stay comfortable.

I would have thought a hotel named for the famous Trolltunga hike would be more accommodating to hikers like myself who wanted to catch the first shuttle from P2 to P3. This meant leaving at 5:45am but the breakfast table starts at 6 and neither the manager nor the breakfast server were interested in helping (even though most of it was laid out well in advance).

I booked this hotel because it’s owned by Trolltunga Active, the company I was hiking Trolltunga with, and I’m glad I did. My room was comfortable, the beds especially so, which matched the reviews I’d read beforehand. Everything was spotless and cutely decorated. The breakfast buffet was awesome, served in a bright, windowed, almost greenhouse-like restaurant overlooking a rushing mountain stream. It was raining the morning I ate, but it still felt like I was sitting outside, which was really cool. The restaurant was clearly popular, it was fully booked for dinner, so definitely make a reservation in advance. I wish I had! Parking was easy with plenty of space, and the location was perfect for getting to downtown Odda, the waterfront, and the Trolltunga trailhead quickly.

Positives: breakfast, clean room
Not much else good to say here. Parking was limited and ended up across the street (which for Norway counts as close I have found out).
Room was tiny and terrible bathroom.
Staff was ambivalent at best.
The price point was way too high for the hotel room especially given it’s not walkable to downtown Odda and also that Odda is not a scenic town but more of a stopover.

We did a trekking trip with trolltunga active and they host their pre trip
Meeting at this hotel. So, we decided to stay here. Breakfast was limited but good enough. Our room had private bath and both room and bath were tiny even from European standards. Guy working at the breakfast was a bit grouchy and watched all guests to make sure they did not pack anything with them to take on the trek. Ladies working at the front desk/bar were pleasant and eager to help with advice on transportation etc. we had dinner also. Dinner was good with great views but a bit overpriced even for this area. Overall, good stay if you are doing a trip with trolltunga active.

There are not many hotels in Odda and I believe Trolltunga hotel is a top choice for those challenging the 12 hour Trolltunga hike. The rooms are very clean but also very small. The double bed is very small for two people. It is located at a beautiful junction of a lake and river, nice place to take a walk.

Wonderful Respite

We were amazed to find that this hotel was so nice in such a remote location. The rooms were simple, but clean and comfortable. The common areas were a step up - a patio overlooking the lake and the rushing river, sofas with a fireplace, and wine, beers and ciders to cheer from the front desk. Cocktails could also be ordered from the restaurant downstairs.

The morning buffet had a lot of variety: eggs, potatoes, meats, cheeses, vegetables, etc. (see my photos on Trip Advisor). In the evening, the restaurant turns into a lovely spot for a quiet dinner with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the water. The menu is limited, but excellent in quality (on the pricier side). Before and after hiking, we were glad we did not have to look elsewhere for meals.

There is a washer available (fee), and the door stays locked by the front desk. I really appreciated that. You can also store your luggage.

When you book at this hotel, they offer a ride up to Skjeggedal P2 in early season if you also book with Trolltunga Active for the hike. The owner gave us a ride up. His company is interested in preserving the environment around the Trolltunga trail, so they don't swim or wander far off the trails. I respect that.

It was an all-in-one stay that made our logistics easier, and I highly recommend the whole package.

The staff was friendly and professional, and the dining area was lovely. Our only frustration was the fact that our room was on the first floor, and the windows were covered halfway up with frosted glass which completely blocked the view of the rapids running just outside our window. Assuming this is for privacy, a better option would be curtains so guests can control the view.

Great hotel with beautiful views near Trolltunga

We had a great stay at the Trolltunga Hotel. Check in was easy (our room was ready early), and the hotel is well appointed and comfortable. There is a bar at the check in counter, as well as an outdoor balcony with seating overlooking the fjord. There is also a spacious full-service restaurant on the bottom level with a great breakfast buffet. The room itself was exactly what we needed for one night before our Trolltunga hike. It was clean and comfortable. The hotel also allowed us to store our bags and pick them up after our hike. There was also a great hiking loop right near the hotel. And the information sessions the night before the Trolltunga hikes are held every night in the hotel lobby, which was very convenient. The Odda buss and taxi stop for Trolltunag are conveniently located. We would definitely recommend staying here before your Trolltunga hike!

This hotel is great especially if you are planning on staying the night before hiking away in the mountains. It was easy to find and priced well for the area and country. We were in one of the older rooms and everything was clean and tidy. One thing that was downside is that the bathroom was all tile and you showered on the same floor with no separation to where the toilet and sink were. This was not a big deal but might be challenging for some.
The staff is very friendly and easy to reach through the front desk.

We stayed for 2 nights tat the Trolltunga hotel. Supposed to be 1 night but booked another night last minute hence got 2 different rooms.
The first room was a double plus (last room available). It was located on the ground level. Very clean, had a mountain view (top half of window) and half the glass was frosted so people cannot peep into our room. The amenities are very basic, the rooms are clean. They have a hair dryer and for toiletries it is just 1 shower gel/shampoo dual purpose. Towels are provided.
The second night we got shifted upstairs to a mountain & lake view which I loved! The room was still basic.
I loved the view outside the property, its nature 360 degrees! Sit anywhere around the small property n enjoy the great view.
The breakfast was really good too. Fresh pancakes (loved it), cakes, etc.
Would stay here again for the service, property view and bf!

As the name suggests, a good property to stay before and/or after your hike to Trolltunga. Stayed in a Petite Loft on the 3rd floor, with two twin beds. Very small room, but again if you're there for hiking, it serves that purpose. Included wifi did not work in our room, but was good in the lobby. It is an older building so we found it to not be as quiet as we'd like, could hear talking from neighboring rooms and hallway. Reminder to pack earplugs if you are a light sleeper and you'll be just fine :) Included breakfast was pretty basic.
