One of American artist James Turrell’s unique installations, Hardanger Skyspace is a captivating play between light, space and movement. At sunrise or sunset, the space is bathed in polychromatic light that changes your perception of the sky.
A glacier behind, a fjord in front, and between them this 19th-century guesthouse in Sundal on Norway's quiet western edge, restored by owners Caroline and Harald with real soul. Eleven gingham-filled rooms (most with shared baths), a communal kitchen serving seasonal four-course dinners, a sauna by the water, and Frøya the fluffy dog, who seems to know every guest by name. Deeply charming and unhurried.
If you want to enjoy lunch with a view, Fløirerestauranten should be your first port of call. If their jaw-dropping views weren't enough, their seasonal dishes made from ingredients sourced from the surrounding mountains and fjords will do the trick. We recommend their extraordinary toast skagen.
The Grand Hotel Terminus is a historic hotel with the best whisky bar in town. While many tend to pop in for late-night drinks, we encourage you to let drinks roll into sleep if you're in Bergen.
If you want to have fun, No Stress is the right place to go. Perfect for an after-office beer, a martini date with the girls or an eclectic get together on stand-up comedy night, this Scandinavian cocktail pub will not disappoint.
