Hotel Ullensvang is a storied four-star hotel on the southern shore of the Hardangerfjord in Lofthus, surrounded by Norway’s largest fruit orchards. The hotel’s extensive spa and wellness facilities include a sauna with panoramic fjord views, an indoor swimming pool, outdoor pools, jacuzzis, and an open-air bath area. A fitness centre and relaxation areas complete the offering.
The sauna experience here is elevated by the extraordinary setting. From the spa area, guests look out over the Hardangerfjord to the Folgefonna glacier on the opposite shore. The combination of indoor and outdoor pools means you can swim with a view regardless of the weather. Treatments, massages, and wellness packages are available for those wanting to indulge further.
Lofthus has been a destination for artists, composers, and travellers for well over a century, drawn by the dramatic interplay of fjord, glacier, and orchard. Hotel Ullensvang continues that tradition, offering a luxurious base for exploring the Hardanger region. The hotel is accessible by car from Bergen in about two and a half hours, with the scenic Hardanger Bridge route being particularly recommended.
