Stayed three nights at the Midtnes in July 2008. Booked directly with the hotel, phoned and then confirmed by email (and this is probably a good way to do it). Good location, 50 meters or so up hill from Fjord edge and about 200 metres from Balestrand’s shops and jetty. Only problem is that some rooms in new bit of... more

A very pleasant hotel in a fabulous and peaceful setting. I take issue with previous reviewers who have slagged off aspects of this little hotel. OK,. the modern block is not the most sensitive development for the location (but pales into insignificance with the Kviknes extension!), but once you are in the sizeable and comfortable rooms, the balcony with fjord... more

The Midtnes is located in the middle of a picturesque town. The rooms are basic, but very clean and have balconies with partial views of the fjord. No television, but around such beautiful nature, one should not need it. Good breakfast, but not many restaurants in town. more

Midtnes Hotel is a very nice place to stay in Balestrand, which is one of the loveliest little towns in the fjord country. The town itself is very quiet and peaceful, nestled alongside Sognefjord, and a great base for taking ferry rides on the fjords. We stayed here for three nights, and enjoyed our stay, though the hotel is not... more

I have to agree with the others that mentioned that the web site description of the property is misleading. The Midtnes is certainly a business of convenience, they have a captive market and know it so there is no need to do much for service. Breakfast is served between 8-10 despite there being regular early morning ferries (7:50, 8:05) either... more

Balestrand is a scenic town indeed, but really quiet. Make sure you have your dinner early, I didn't so I had to wait for the breakfast because there are no restraurants or fast food joints in this town. At breakfast they had named seats, which I found a little silly. I woke up early (because I was hungry!), and I... more

We stayed in Midtnes Hotel in August. I suppose this whole review is influenced by the fact that we thought we were staying in a different hotel.... if you look at their website there is a picture of a lovely wooden building - we booked that with a "balcony and fjord view". So according to us, as reflected in the... more

One of the more affordable (for Norway) accomodations in Balestrand. A pleasant experience overall, breakfast buffet was good quality and variety (cold cuts, cheeses, cereals, breads, pickled herring, plus periodically refreshed hot dishes). Pay by the hour internet access via a shared computer. Jon the owner was very helpful, including picking us up and dropping us off at the boat... more

We stayed in this hotel recently it was comfortable the rooms simple, breakfast plentiful and well presented, usual Norwegian breakfast (but no toast for us British) We booked through Fjord pass which was reasonable, however when Fjord pass was slow to get back to me with the booking I emailed the hotel for a price which was a lot more... more
