Dalen Hotel
This unbelievably charming "fairy tale" hotel was built in the late 19th century in the grand romantic style popular for that era. On the building's façade, you'll find balconies, towers, and the heads of dragons; this makes it a popular spot for kids and adults of all ages. The Dalen Hotel was renovated in 1994 in order to provide the sort of modern luxuries that discerning travelers have come to expect. Rooms come equipped with antique furnishings, no televisions or radios allowed, as peace and quiet are the aim here. The hotel rooms are equipped with wireless Internet access, however. Several elegant conference halls are available on request.

Herang Tunet
Herang Tunet is situated in the village Heggenes, a mere stone's throw away from Dalen, and offers numerous charms for the world-weary visitor to Norway. More of a guest house than a proper hotel, the Herang Tunet is run by a friendly Dutch couple, who offer guests a choice between themed rooms and full service apartments. Each of the three rooms is decorated tastefully according to nationality; choose between French, Dutch, and Canadian. The apartment has two bedrooms, one of which is specifically designed for children. Luxurious bathrooms, comfy double beds, and wireless Internet access are hallmarks of each and every room on the premises. Hungry? Have a meal in the on-site restaurant, with its cozy wood-burning stove.
