The Juvet Landscape Hotel at Valldal, by the architect company Jensen & Skodvin, is build attached to a farm dating back to 1880 and it has nine individual rooms that each face a singular patch of wilderness. From large window display’s you can silently watch all four seasons go by.

There is seven double rooms, with dark interior as not to steal attention from its view to the stunning surroundings. There is also two single rooms, build in a slightly different style with less space and perhaps even more minimalistic but with more light. The architecture wanted to show how little you actually need to be comfortable and live luxurious.

The hotel also has a SPA, a few stairs climb down with a view directly to the waterfall.

In addition, there is the opportunity to stay in some of the old buildings on the farm, from the tiny mill house to the mountain farm.

The experience will set you back NOK 1,550 per person in a double room. per night, including breakfast. If you would like a three-course evening meal, served at a communal table in the cow barn, you can add NOK 600 per person to the bill. The hotel also have a fully licensed bar. Local produce is important and for breakfast you can enjoy freshly baked bread, smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. There is no lunch, but the hotel is happy for you to make a packed lunch which to enjoy on your hike or sightseeing in the area.
