Check into the fjords


In the heart of the Hardangerfjord, a ten-minute drive from the Hardanger Bridge, lies the tiny village of Ulvik. A lush settlement with a well-kept cultural landscape that stretches from deep blue fjords to snow-covered high mountain peaks.

Brakanes Hotel is about more than just providing you with a great place to spend the night. We invite you to experience all that Hardanger has to offer, from cider tasting among blossoming apple orchards in spring to skiing the Hardanger Plateau in the winter months.

The hotel has 143 rooms spread over five floors, of which 90 are refurbished rooms facing the fjord. Furnished in a modern Nordic style, the rooms are the perfect starting point for your Hardangerfjord experience. 

The hotel also has a range of facilities for guests to enjoy. There is an indoor swimming pool, sauna, and fitness center, as well as stand-up paddleboard, kayak and bike rentals. For those who prefer to relax, there is a cozy lounge with a fireplace and a library stocked with books in multiple languages.

One of the highlights of Brakanes Hotel is its restaurant, which serves delicious Norwegian cuisine made from local ingredients. The restaurant has a lovely terrace overlooking the fjord, where guests can dine alfresco in the summer months.
