The location and views are unbeatable and there are numerous outside places to enjoy a drink and relax. Rooms are small and some have balconies with a small table and a couple of chairs. It is pricey, but just 10mins stroll to Holmen Centre and a 10min taxi to Asker or Sandvika stations. Breakfast is included and there's a pretty good selection. However, food is just warm and the staff very slow at refilling empty dishes.

Well must say that this place gets a lot of credit for the outdoor seating area! I love it when…read moreit's sunny and you are next to the river. Plus they have heat lamps if it gets chilly which you can ask for them to put up. We had some sushi and wine there. The sushi was ok. But I thought it was a bit overpriced. I tried also the spicy tartare salmon that was really good! However the restaurant looses points for bad service. The guy who served us barely understood English and apart from that, the girl at the end gave us a comment about not having wine in our glasses anymore. She said: do you want something else because I see your glasses are empty. And she said in a mean-angry tone like give the table or order something. And we had literally just finished and it was not the only comment we got from her. So 3 stars for bad service, otherwise I would give 4.

Vi hadde det så hyggelig at vi ba dem vente lenger mellom rettene, og da kom det også påfyll av vin innimellom. Eneste jeg har å utsette på var desserten. En krydderpanacotta som hadde litt for mye gelatin i seg og fremstod mer som vaniljegele. Vi sa i fra, og kokken lagde ny dessert til alle. For en service! Anbefales på det varmeste.

We just went to this restaurant today, looking for an affordable place to eat some Norwegian food…read more The evening did not end up well at all. Let me explain: 1. We waited for more than 10min to get the Menu (and because we finally asked the waiter to bring it! Otherwise we would still be waiting) 2. We ordered the specialties of norwegian cuisine (Cod and Reindeer) as we went there for this purpose. After 10 more minutes, the waitress (a different one from the guy who brought the Menu) told us that there was no Reindeer left. 3. We checked again the Menu and decided to order Deer instead. 10 more minutes and another waitress (the 3rd one in 30min!!!) comes to tell us that there is no Deer (and no pasta, and so on...) and that they are about to close the kitchen!!! :-o 4. To our astonishment, it was just 20:55 on a Friday night. Taking into account we arrived 30min earlier and nobody warned us about the kitchen being closed around 21h... we felt it was just an excuse for not having planned enough stock/food during Easter holidays. Obviously, we left the restaurant and went to another restaurant with food and much better service.
