About the hotel

The family-owned hotel in Vrådal has been welcoming guests since 1864 and celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2014. The hotel has been run by the Straand family for the past 5 generations.

One restaurant and one bar are located inside the hotel. The restaurant serves breakfast every morning, lunch later in the day and dinner in the evening. The Christmas table season at Straand Hotel starts in November and is a must if you're travelling at this time of year. The hotel also has a swimming pool and a cosy fireplace lounge where you can relax after a long, active day out.

In summer, there's outdoor seating on the sunny terrace and the kids can play down by the water's edge where there's a beach and several pieces of play equipment. You can hire canoes, rowing boats and pedal boats from the hotel. From here there is a view of Lake Nisser and the hotel is surrounded by a mighty mountain landscape. Some evenings there is live music on the terrace, when a better dinner is recommended, followed by an evening drink with entertainment outside in magnificent surroundings between the mountains.

Rooms

The hotel has a total of 125 rooms, all with private bathroom, toilet and TV. All rooms at the hotel are traditionally decorated in Norwegian style.
