Included in this package are:
The first day you check in at Hotel Brosundet in the center of Ålesund. The city is widely known for the beautiful Art Nouveau architecture with a variety of towers, spiers and beautiful decorations. Take a walk in the city park, walk the famous stairs up to Aksla and the viewpoint Byrampen or go sea rafting! See different activities here.
Hotel Brosundet offers a different experience. From the delicate interior design, stunning artwork, antique beams to fresh local seafood all in company with the locals which has Hotel Brosundet as one of their favorite spots in town. The hotel's passion is to preserve the buildings as they originally were warehouses and significant to the fishery in small town Ålesund. As soon as you enter the hotel you will find inspirational design combined with an authentic story to tell. The outer walls of the hotel extend directly into the waters of Brosundet, Ålesund true town center.
Have a well-deserved drink at Arkivet Bar and enjoy the warm and elegant atmosphere before heading to the hotel's restaurant, Apotekergata No 5. Take a seat, and enjoy a 5-course menu inspired by local food traditions from the Sunnmøre region combined with inspiration gathered from all over the world. Seasonal dishes are served with ingredients from local farms, fields and the sea. A menu where nature dominates, and seasons dictate.
Take time to enjoy a delicious breakfast the next day and experience a little more of the city before heading to your next destination - the idyllic lodge hotel Storfjord Hotel in the small fjord village Glomset. The hotel is located 40 minutes from Ålesund city center. See route here.
Storfjord Hotel is a secluded luxury boutique hotel situated in Glomset, on a hillside overlooking the Storfjord and the Sunnmøre Alps. Behind the handcrafted log walls awaits an experience you will not find anywhere else. Take in the familiar scent of timber, and enjoy looking at works of art and carefully selected antiques. Sit comfortably in designer furniture while drinking coffee and enjoy the magnificent view. While the view itself is well worth a visit, you will enjoy this beautiful haven from hectic life. The rooms at Storfjord Hotel are spacious and a comfortable place to stay. An inspiration where Norwegian traditions meets modern design.
Where the hotel meets the forest, you will find yourself in peaceful surroundings in the hotel's Wellness. Step inside and find rest in the cozy lounge and listen to the soothing sound of the forest from outside the window. Get in touch with nature in the outdoor jacuzzi and feel the sunshine or the soft touch of gentle raindrops on your face. If you want to enjoy treatments we recommend booking in advance. After a tasty 4-course dinner and good conversations in front of the fireplace, it is nice to retreat to the beautiful rooms and a lovely bed for a good night's sleep.
