Was great, loosing it now

Has been my favourite motorcycle/motor hotel in this area (with great roads) for many years. But now with 2 price increases in "no time" one small beer and a Jager costs 269,-. And the single rooms are not up to par... and no towels coming out of the shower did not help either. They have the possibility for Omelette at breakfast...but the chef is never there. Have given this ut, going to Seljord Hotel instead.

Nice hotel. Good feel. Very good buffet. Negatives: received the keys 30 min after check in. It smelled chlorine from the cleaning. The air ventilation in the room was not good. And the pool was very cold.

We did the check-in at the hotel, we were really disappointed about the bedroom and was very broke and the warm excrement smell was unbearable… We’ve book it with the Spa, swimming pool and sauna, the receptionist told us that it was open and gave us towels but everything was switch off. I asked his manager but he said that he switch it on just during the weekend. The place is very depressing, we felt so uncomfortable that we decided to leave at 16:30 and don’t sleep there. It’s not honest to sell a service at this price and don’t provide it.

Straand er et fint hotel med flott beliggenhet. God mat og hyggelig betjening. Stiller ikke så store krav til selve overnattingen med det skal være rent, god seng og rolig. Savner såpe og shampo på baderom

Ferie stopp i Telemark

Helt greit. Bør vurdere å bytte senger på sikt. Ser at flere Hoteller kjører på billige IKEA senger for tiden. Skjønner at de som kaller seg Historiske kjører på egen stil , men seng er litt viktig når vi først skal bruke penger på overnatting. Sengen her holdt ikke mål er min mening. Ellers fint opphold, etc. men spise tilbud for buffer til kr 600 pr. Pers bør dere revurdere på sikt. Ikke alle som ønsker spise buffet om sommeren, for ett kort opphold , fikk dog spist noe annet på terrassen før kl 1800.
