Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has some nice perks like very friendly and helpful service and a vg buffet dinner in the evenings. However, the lack of phones in the rooms to call reception located 200 meters away can be inconvenient.
The hotel is located in a serene setting, slightly removed from Vik town, with a quant and serene atmosphere. The rooms were very cozy, spacious for a group of three, and well-equipped with modern amenities, including a huge new bathroom. The service was friendly, helpful, and professional, with a warm welcome and insightful local recommendations. The dining experience was outstanding, offering fresh and varied food choices. However, some minor inflexibility in the dinner menu was noted. The facilities were fantastic overall, providing a great stay experience.
I had a last-minute booking on a dark and rainy night, but luckily, the room was spacious with a wonderful view. The service was a bit of a mixed bag, with some staff being less helpful, but others working hard to keep everything spotless. The location, though lacking a bit of character, was peaceful with lovely views of the hills. The dining experience was average at best, with limited options and mediocre food, but the happy hour drinks were a good deal.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were warm and cozy with a heated floor, which was a relief after a long and rainy drive. However, the receptionist made a rather embarrassing comment about the room that dampened my arrival.
I couldn't have asked for more from my stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, clean, and extremely comfy; however, the dining experience was a bit overpriced for what it offered. The location was superb, surrounded by beautiful nature, and the service was top-notch.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel, with spacious and modern rooms offering a nice view over a little lake. Being away from the parking lot kept noise at bay, but the room size felt a bit small for the price. The service was exceptional, from fixing issues promptly to providing local knowledge and arranging additional stays in unexpected situations. The location was peaceful, although dining options were limited and a bit overpriced. Overall, a comfortable and welcoming hotel with a few room-related drawbacks.
The hotel has clean rooms with slightly outdated decor and thin walls, but they were still tidy. The service varied, with some staff being less than friendly, although others were very nice and helpful. The location is excellent, right by the sea and close to attractions. The dining options were good overall, with some expensive choices. The facilities were decent, offering basic amenities.
The hotel offers spacious and well-appointed rooms with stunning views in a magical location. The service is friendly and accommodating, though slight issues were noted with door noises. The dining options are satisfying with a variety of fresh and delicious choices. The hotel's facilities are well-maintained and enjoyable, offering a pleasant stay overall.
