Fossheim Hotel Lom

First time at Fossheim - definitely not the last. Excellent dining - super nice & very serviceminded staff. Relaxed atmosphere. Our room in the main building had great view to the mountains. Will visit again at my next adventure in Jotunheimen

STAY AWAY STAY AWAY STAY AWAY The odour in the room and the totally outdated bathroom...Horrible disgrace, the enclosed pictures talks for themselves. Taking a shower leaves the whole room wet, and it stays wet, as the ventilation is a joke. STAY AWAY

My friend booked a stay for two nights last summer at Fossheim hotel during our journey from Oslo to Bergen. The food was perfect and we had a great stay. It is an old charming hotel and therefore some noise from neighbor room. Our neighbor was really noisy this night. Late night I went down to the reception in order to change room. There was no one there but I heard noise in the restaurant/kitchen and someone shouting “ DU ER SÅÅÅ DIGGG!”. It sounds like someone had a really tasty desert, and I headed for the kitchen. I knocked on the folding door, but no one responded. There was a lot of noise and I therefore opened the door. I was shocked when I saw a waitress with long dark hair undressed doing really intime things with the cook on the kitchen table where the food is prepared. Next morning I talked to a receptionist about what i saw in the kitchen. She looked resigned and shoked, and said “Ingrid glemmer stadig at hun er gift, men blir alltid tilgitt*. She continued saying that luckely there was only one cook involved this time. We had not much sleep this night but the next night was better. It is great to see employees at the hotel have enjoyable days and the promoted ‘romantic weekend’ also applies for the staff.

This Hotel in old historical building and it managed by same family for many generations. Building is really beautiful, there is restaurant and lobby/sitting area and also a library. Breakfast was good, but nothing to special, gluten free selection was quite narrow. Rooms are quite small, and interior old, no air conditioning or even ventilation in a room except shower had exhaust fan, which was on only when you leave also the lights on. But i guess it comes with old buildings. Location is superb, in the center of everything in this small town, reasonable free parking spaces and helpful staff. But in my mind the price was quite high in return of quality of the accommodation.

Splendid hotel, excellent service. Fantastic local food, cozy surrondings. If you stay here you must also visit the local bakery, and enjoy one of the many hiking trails. Good for skiing as well, and the locals are very friendly.

Dinner was good, but breakfast felt a little "stingy". When one's on a holiday, one expects a wider selection of cold meats, beverages, breads, etc. For the price of 1800++ kr per night, I couldn't see a hair dryer. Good thing I had brought mine. In my experience traveling all over Norway, I find independent and family-owned hotels to have inconsistent and varying level of service or comfort (food, hair dryer, interior, toiletries)..
