Budget experience at a glorified truck stop
The quality of the experience is right there in the name: budget. We walked from the dock to the hotel, only to discover that there is no one on site, and we had to walk back to the visitor center to check in. There is no one on site, which kind of seems abandoned while renovation work goes on. There was a communal fridge and microwave in the hallway (the space was not tidy). The bathrooms/ showers were nice (bring shower shoes), and it was the most comfortable mattress we slept on the whole trip. But the window shades didn't work well, and the wifi didn't reach to our room, so we had to go down to the lobby to use our devices. We chose to purchase food from the convenience store across the stream instead of buying breakfast from the visitor center.
We had a larger room with private bathroom. Excellent view of the sounding mountains with waterfalls. Friendly staff. Coffee and tea available in the lobby to serve yourself. Very basic accommodation but clean and tidy for a budget hotel. Overall, we enjoyed our stay there.
Amazing location
Loved our stay

Room is very clean and the service is good with close to port for fjord cruise. But several rooms have two shared public showers and toilets, potentially inconvenient in the mornings and nights, especially for seniors.
great location , right in the mouth of the fjord and cruise stop . wonderful cottages with full kitchen . Nice restaurant and bar in the main building. would recommend this hotel for couples, families. great scenic location
This was a beautiful place, right at a famous fjord. With waterfalls coming down all around, a nice restaurant and a really nice reasonable priced gift store. We loved it there!

The word budget is a good description. The room was small, hostel-like and the bed was hard. There were steep stairs to get ti the room. The hotel reception was a block away. The staff were helpful. I didn't see the rooms of the main hotel where the reception was but my guess is they were better. It is convienient to the dock for a Fjord tour
Our room was very clean and spacious with a beautiful view. We liked that it was within a walkable distance to the Viking Village. Very nice scenery and nice and quiet.
Even though I booked the Fjordtel Budget Hotel, it was early May and the main hotel was not full so they automatically upgrade me to the main Gudvangen Fjordtell. The room was neat and clean and even had a kitchenette and its own deck. It was a short walk from the main building where you check in and eat. Very cool round building with lots of glass, including the ceiling thru which you can look up 400 meters to see one of the world’s most magnificent water falls. Indeed, the tiny hamlet of Gudvangen is surrounded by towering cliffs like no other place in the world of which I’m aware. It also is the origin of the Naeroyfjord, perhaps the most awesome of all of Norway’s many fjords. It is part of the famous Norway in a Nutshell attractions, and can be taken either from Gudvangen to Flåm or visa versa. In midseason, I assume the place gets very bust because there are parking spaces for dozens of big buses. Many of the buses are from nearby Flam (20 minutes) but the two hour bus ride from Bergen to Gudvangen runs through spectacular scenery. I recommend you get a good seat on a VY double decker and drink in the beauty.
Good location if you drive and going for fjord tour .Basic room with shared bathrooms and toilets .Limited restaurants but there is a supermarket about six mins. walk across the bridge . Room is clean but small .
