Hotel Ullensvang is located in the quiet village of Lofthus in the heart of Hardanger, Norway’s largest fruit orchard. Not surprisingly, over 500,000 fruit trees surround the hotel. The blossoming period is one of the most stunning periods, lasting from approximately mid May until mid June.
Across the fjord and overlooking the hotel is the Folgefonna Glacier while behind the hotel is the Hardangervidda, Norway’s largest National Park. With this truly unique location, Hotel Ullensvang provides room for complete relaxation, but gives also the possibility to explore this award winning region.
