We were at Hotel Norge overnight in Lillesand. If you want a real visit to what Norway is like today on the southeast coast and experience an old classic hotel, this is a very good place. The room was quite nice, old but updated. The breakfast was fresh and quite good. Most important was the service. You may have to look for someone at reception because maybe they are right opposite serving coffee or breakfast or lunch. Nevertheless, whatever we needed for our short stay, all was accomplished.
It’s quaint and in boutique style. If you are looking for some quiet near a small town coastal area, we recommend it.
