    What they don’t tell you

    Located in a magnificent fortress, the views are breathtaking, and the atmosphere is uniquely charming. The room was clean, and the breakfast was excellent. Yet, signs to the hotel are scarce, creating confusion. The Wi-Fi was hit or miss, and parking was a trek from the hotel. Definitely a place to experience, but be prepared!

    The hotel's unique location in an old fortress offered stunning views, while the restored room with modern comforts truly impressed me. However, the lack of staff presence during our arrival was quite frustrating.

    I had a lovely stay at the Castle Hotel & Resort, where the historical atmosphere surprised me. The room was modern and comfortable, though a clearer signposting for facilities would enhance the experience. I enjoyed the beautiful views overlooking the valley

    breathtaking views
    friendly staff
    minor logistical hiccups
    undergoing conversion
    dining delay

    Staying in a Superior Room offered a unique experience in a historic barracks with breathtaking views. The room was spotlessly clean and spacious, providing excellent facilities for families. Dining on delicious Thai dishes in the resort was a highlight, with friendly staff enhancing the overall experience. However, some areas were still undergoing conversion, and there were minor logistical hiccups during the stay.

    comfortable bed
    high-quality amenities
    true wooden floors
    unclear signage
    confusing directions

    The Deluxe Room was cozy with true wooden floors, giving it a nice authentic feel. The bed was super comfortable, and I loved the high-quality amenities. It felt spacious and inviting, perfect for relaxing after a day out. The only tricky part was the unclear signs to find my room, which made things a bit confusing at first.

    Awesome views and cozy vibes!

    I loved staying at this unique spot. The rooms are huge and warm, with epic views of the valley. The staff was super friendly and really made us feel at home. Dinner in the restaurant was tasty. The only bummer was a bit of a walk from the parking lot, especially with bags.

    nice suite
    complicated lighting

    This was a decent match for a quick stopover in Kongsvinger with good value for money. The suite we had was nice, though the lighting was overly complicated. Make sure to ask for directions to avoid confusion on arrival.
