Storfjord Hotel

Secluded Scandi-style on a wooded, fjord fringed hilltop in Alpine Norway

Leave the hubbub of modern life and step into a Scandinavian folk tale. Settled on the crest of a hill, this woodland retreat has a log cabin look but a boutique hotel feel. The scent of timber hangs in the air. You’re greeted as though you’re a guest in a private home. Then it’s time to slow down as days drift by in languid luxury.

Storfjord Hotel is a handcrafted haven. Inside is a calming combination of traditional Norwegian features and über-modern design, with a soothing palette, snug corners, and carefully selected art and antiques. There’s plenty to satisfy an adventurous spirit. But if a few restful days simply soaking up some extraordinary scenery are in order, Storfjord Hotel is ideal.

Hiking, fishing, sailing, skiing – however you want to see this part of Norway, Storfjord Hotel is a picture-perfect jumping off point. Forget television and technology and instead go fishing around Ålesund or paddle from the hotel to Glomset Cove in a kayak. You may even have seals and puffins for company. A private boat or helicopter trip to the waterfalls at Geirangerfjord and cloud-capped peaks around Hjorundfjord are musts. Back on dry land, short woodland walking trails weave around Storjord, or enjoy the more advanced hiking in the Sunmøre Alps. If that works up an appetite, you can request a cookery class.


Enjoy your stay!

Environmentally Conscious

Currently in the process of becoming a certified Miljøfyrtårn company, an official Norwegian Green Organisation, Storfjord’s sustainable efforts range from making their own honey from on-site beehives to help the local bee population served alongside local cheeses and used in soups and sauces, to supplying guests with HydroFlasks on their fjord adventures (bicycles and kayaks are available to rent from the hotel). The hotel also owns land in the Ørnakken Nature Reserve, dedicated to the preservation of bird wildlife.

Culture

Cultural Custodians

Offering its support to an organisation called Storfjordens Venner, Storfjord helps protect the remote farms along the fjords from Ålesund to Geiranger, preserving the old buildings and keeping their history alive. Guests are invited to tour the farms to learn more about this remote way of life, and enjoy the beautiful natural surroundings which have carefully been kept true to their Viking heritage. Storfjord also arranges visits to an authentic fjord farm Gurines, who supply the hotel with homemade pastries and entertain guests with Norse storytelling.

SLH Considerate Collection

Community Minded

Storfjord has a longstanding relationship with both its own village of Glomset and the close-knit neighbouring communities in the Sunnmøre region, cultivating friendly partnerships with local artisans, skilled guides, and small businesses who offer a variety of activities to guests. These include traditional Norwegian baking classes, ethical wildlife safari, photography experiences, fishing trips with a local captain, and routes with a small bus company ‘Travel with Locals’ which takes guests on a round-trip from Ålesund to Geiranger and back.

Cozy, Perfecf Fall Getaway

We loved the kayak and motorboats provided for guests. The food was incredible but the breakfast portions were on the small side. Their spa was beautiful as was the property. Coziest and most comfortable rooms & bedding. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Service was top notch.

The wellness facilities are extremely well kept and the outdoor jacuzzi overlooking the forest is peaceful and relaxing. We have stayed in many 5 star hotels in the past and this hotel exceeded all of them in terms of services and facilities. My fiancé and I will definitely be booking future stays at Storfjord hotel. A big thank you to the staff who made our stay so memorable.
