“Good and comfortable hotel in a panoramic location, but not very easy to reach without a car or taxi”
Large rooms with comfortable beds. Very nice breakfast. Nice view from the hotel and very close to the fortress. The staff was friendly. Rooms were quiet. It was nice to read the history of the place and area also inside the rooms themselves.

“Fredriksten fortress - the end of a Swedish Kingdom”
Fantastic location for every military buff out there, or anyone else with an interest into Nordic history who would like to visit the fortress and relive the events that changed the history and the fate of three Nordic countries. The fortress itself is rather extensive, with a beautiful view, and well restored and kept. And no entrance fee. As for the hotel, it is spotlessly clean, modest, but great in the Scandinavian way, pro, but welcoming and friendly staff, and the hotel restaurant proved far above what you would expect. Not bad at all. One of the more welcoming military camps I have been to, I must say. And, I really enjoyed the architecture, one of Norway's great architects beeing behind it.

“Clean, well kept, excellent views and a spacious room”
The location is fantastic, overlooking the town of Halden with short walking distance to the fort. Lots of little viewpoints around the hotel itself too, and grassy areas for kids. Plenty of parking, free of course. We had the family room which was a huge lounge area with a double bed hidden privately behind a dividing wall type thing, plus another room with two single beds. Huge windows that open, black-out blinds, and high ceilings. Bit of a luxury feel. Nice modern shower and bathroom too. On site restaurant was I’d say slightly middle to top end in prices and choice, they don’t cater to families which was fine. Burgers were actually incredibly tasty. Very quiet there, and aircon in the restaurant which we needed in the 30°c heat. Ukrainian woman serving was really friendly and helpful!

“Clean, amazing breakfast, awesome views over Halden & close to multiple interesting landmarks.”
2nd time in this hotel, I came back for the location, food & friendly staff. Again was pleasantly surprised like the 1st time! The hotel is such an overlooked gem with the Fredriksten fort right next door.
