Fredriksten Hotell

"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."

"I was there for work (conference) and the room was not exceptional if one had to do some work. The light was a bit dim and the power plugs were far from the only table-like structure in the room. Overall however, it can work if you have a charger with a long cable. The place is difficult to reach (very steep hill) and the only option is basically taxi."

"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."

"Bag trolleys could have been available at the front desk as we don't have bell boys around anymore. And, some of it are not"

"The best breakfast in Norway 😀"

"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!"

"Needed a fridge. But reception will fill your cold thermos for you. Not much else going on in the hotel. Everything seemed to be run on a ghost crew in mid-summer. Our nights sleep was disturbed by what can only be described as the scene from The Lost Boys where they drive around the house on motorbikes shining lights through the windows. We had local youth seemingly driving around the hotel in circles on stupidly, making incredible noise, this went on from 11pm til about 12:15. It woke my kids. Can’t blame the hotel, but can nothing be done about locals directly outside the hotel causing a racket? It was like British council estate youth just turned up."

"Nice breakfast, friendly staff"
