Frichs Ekspress Andalsnes

Ideally located in the heart of Åndalsnes on the second floor of the Alti Shopping Centre, Frichs Ekspress Åndalsnes offers modern, self-check-in accommodation in one of Western Norway’s most spectacular gateway towns. Set at the mouth of the Rauma river and surrounded by the towering peaks of the Romsdal Alps — including the legendary Trollveggen (Europe’s tallest vertical cliff face) — this smart 3-star hotel provides the ideal base for adventurers, photographers and nature lovers exploring the fjord region.

Each of the 19 spacious, modern rooms features high-quality Wonderland beds (locally made in Åndalsnes), air conditioning, flat-screen TV, work desk, private bathroom with shower, and free Wi-Fi. Soundproofed walls ensure a restful night after a day of adventure, and select rooms boast beautiful mountain views. The self-check-in system offers 24/7 flexibility, and the inviting shared lounge with complimentary coffee and tea is perfect for planning your next hike or fjord excursion.

Åndalsnes is the “Mountaineering Capital of Norway”: ride the spectacular new Romsdalsgondolen cable car up to Nesaksla and the Rampestreken viewpoint (just 7 minutes’ walk from the hotel), hike the legendary Romsdalseggen ridge (voted one of Norway’s best hikes), drive the iconic Trollstigen switchback road, or take the scenic Rauma Railway. With a solid 7.3 guest rating, Frichs Ekspress offers modern comfort at excellent value in one of Norway’s most jaw-dropping locations.
