Hvalfanger Svend Foyn Tours

Hotel was nice (albeit very hot with no ac and warm temps) but I had an awful experience with the evening cook (man said he was a student, so hopefully not a full time employee). He insulted me by asking me if I was pregnant, something you never ask a woman unless you are very sure. I cancelled our reservation for 6 people to avoid him, as he was obviously making an insult about my weight.

We did like the rooms,the Spa and the dining roooms. We should like to have a balcony outside our room .

1. Hotel itself was charming, especially the bar and dining area. Breakfast was great. 2. Our room was small, not furnished for us to unpack our suitcases, so we had to pull them out every day to get our clothes; the closet was dark and inconvenient. 3. The room had no ventilation, and the small refrigerator contributed to the heat. When we opened the windows to cool down, the noise outside was too loud. Upon request, the staff did provide a desk fan, which helped. 4. It was Summer, so the sun was up most of the night. Again, the staff provided darkening curtains upon our request, but why did we have to ask? 5. The bathroom had minimal shelving, so we moved the luggage rack into the bathroom to place our toiletries. And the bathtub had no non-slip mat or safety bars for us seniors. I shared my concerns when we checked out with the hope some of these issues will be corrected for the next guests.
