    Excellent stay, as always. Incredibly friendly hotel with outstanding food and marvellous location next to historic Kongsvinger Fortress and the Glomma valley, the hills, fields, and the town of Kongsvinger. Reasonably large and new-fashioned room with splendid views to far away from the town. Courteous services, good Wi-Fi. Everything beautiful...

    When I am in Kongsvinger, I like staying here. The location of the venue is fantastic, not far from historic Kongsvinger Fortress as well as the Glomma valley. Excellent and very good staff as one would expect.

    The room I stayed in was fantastic, truly fabulous. the best part was that this place is not just any ordinary hotel, it's actually a castle! 🏰 I loved how close it was to other museums in town, the hill, and the historic Fortress. It's such a rare and unique experience staying in a place like this.

    I had a lovely time at this hotel. The location was great, right by the entrance to the fortress. The staff was very friendly and the breakfast had a good variety of tasty options. Also, the hotel facilities were clean and the parking lot had plenty of space.

    Entering the historic fortress walls, one can immediately appreciate the fascinating milieu. the location of the hotel building is conveniently close to the entrance, making it accessible. the rooms and bathrooms are clean and comfortable with blackout blinds for a peaceful night's sleep. the breakfast served in the separate restaurant building is great, and the view from outside is breathtaking.

    The restaurant options are limited and set menus are not up to standard, as mentioned in reviews.

    We had a fantastic weekend at Kongsvinger Castle Hotel & Resort. The historical fortress was beautifully restored and offered stunning views of the surrounding area. The comfortable rooms provided a great place to relax. Additionally, the breakfast, although not a buffet, was generous and satisfying. The location of the hotel was also favorable, with convenient parking just a few meters away. The proximity to the Glomma River and other museums in town made exploring the area easy. I highly recommend this hotel for a memorable and enjoyable stay.

    The hotel staff were friendly and attentive. Modern and warm rooms. Enjoyable dinner and breakfast. Special ambiance in a fortress setting. Light sleeper features: soundproofed rooms, blackout blinds, and comfy bed. Fantastic location with splendid views. Comfortable rooms in a perfectly restored historical fortress. Great breakfast variety with a view. Upgraded to a better room with a view.

    Nothing to complain about at all.

    The room was comfortable and practical. The bed was very comfortable, and the rooms were lovely and clean. The property itself is absolutely stunning. The renovations to the historic buildings are very well done and the rooms are comfortable. Breakfast was great, with a good variety and a great view if sitting outside.

    Felt almost like at home, no complaints at all.

    The value for money at this hotel is excellent - comfy beds, soundproofed rooms, and blackout blinds made for a great night's sleep. The location on the hill provided stunning 360-degree views, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive.

    The food for breakfast could have been better, with more variety and options.

    The historical building has a nice atmosphere and offers a great view from the hill. The rooms are modern and well lit. The breakfast, while not a buffet, is generous and satisfying.

    The reception could have been more efficient and provided better directions to the rooms. The noise during the night was disruptive, with doors slamming and guests talking in the corridors.
