ABOUT HARDANGER HOUSE DESIGN HOTEL, FROM THEIR WEBSITE:

Welcome to Hardanger House - the only design hotel in Norway surrounded by the Hardangerfjord, Folgefonna, and majestic Western Norwegian mountains! More and more people have discovered the unique Jondal, and it's easy to understand why. In a fjord where you find one gem after another, Jondal truly stands out. It's no wonder that this small village has become a beloved destination in Hardanger. Jondal is one of only six communities that have been designated a national park village for its focus on the environment and sustainable development, as well as its proximity to Folgefonna National Park. The stunningly beautiful nature, safe surroundings, tranquility, and friendly local atmosphere are worth the trip in themselves. When all of this is combined, you'll understand how special this place is. It must be experienced, and we want to share this feeling with you at Hardanger House. Although the hotel is brand new, our roots are old. Conrad Hansen, the initiator of Hardanger House, grew up in Jondal. He has spent almost all vacations and countless weekends there with his family over the past 50 years. This is where our hearts lie. With comfortable beds, excellent food, and an exquisite selection of wine, you'll have the perfect starting point. Welcome to Jondal and to Hardanger House!

ROOMS:

The hotel rooms are comfortable and spacious, thoughtfully furnished with high-quality details. The rooms are individually decorated and have sitting areas where you can enjoy a cup of coffee, tea, or a glass of quality wine. Each room also has a desk and free Wi-Fi. The rooms at Hardanger House provide everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. All rooms have furnished terraces with fantastic views of the Hardangerfjord. Room size: 20-24 m2.

RESTAURANT:

In the restaurant, we get to enjoy culinary experiences. Hardanger House describes its kitchen as follows: We take pride in our collaboration with local food and beverage producers, which is reflected in the love for the dishes served at Hardanger House. The kitchen offers an unpretentious gourmet experience prepared with the finest local ingredients.

ABOUT THE STAY:

We focus on tranquility rather than a packed schedule. Yoga, food, relax, repeat. We practice both dynamic and yin/relaxation yoga, as well as Tibetan rites, relaxation with singing bowls, movement, and meditation. We enjoy shared meals, indoors or outdoors, depending on the weather. In between yoga and meals, you can relax, take a walk, swim, read a book, and embrace a slow pace and enjoyment.

YOGA:

Helene teaches yoga with a calm and exploratory approach. It's a blend of deep, long passive stretches and active strengthening sequences: yin and yang.

Maria teaches MOVEMENT+MEDITATION. A mix of yoga, relaxation, meditation, Tibetan rites, and simple cardio called Funny Cardio to bring forth good energy and smiles.

We don't practice anything overly advanced, so if you're relatively new to yoga, it's no problem; you can easily keep up.
