The overall experience was just fine. They didn’t have parking available in the middle of the week, the thermostat didn’t work correctly and it was extremely cold inside during summer. Otherwise the hotel was fine.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (232 reviews)
This hotel is in a historical building, in a lovely little coastal town. The hotel is beautifully decorated. Our room was small, but well appointed. I couldn’t help but admire the little window. Sadly this room(215), did not have a view of the harbour, although the hotel is located right on the harbour. The hotel is wonderful, however it’s the owners and staff that truly make it a special place. We met some of the kindest, and friendliest people at Hotel Norge Lillesand. I highly recommend a stay here. It’s delightful. The town is very small and walkable, with several points of interest.
