Things to do in Vradal
1. Straand Hotel
Overall Ratings
3.5 based on 294 reviews
Straand Hotel - in the middle of the beautiful Telemark region in south-eastern Norway. The hotel has a long history that dates back to 1864 in the same family. A full-service hotel well known for its many activities and good food. The hotel has 125 rooms, 2 restaurants, 2 bars, conference wing, swimming pool, terrace and an old style drawing room. In addition we have a veteran boat for sightseeing on Lake Nisser and an activity area by the lake.
Traditional over priced fjellhotel, issues with Corona precautions
Reviewed By PamelaN674We booked Straand Hotell as part of Telemarkskanalen package, we bought the dinner package as an add on. We stood quite a while at reception waiting for someone to check us in, one receptionist was on the phone, another appeared, no welcome just that we could choose dinner at 8pm or 9pm and breakfast 9am or 9.30am. It appears that the hotel prioritises bus groups over individuals. We asked for an earlier breakfast slot because we had to drive to the pickup point for the canal trip for 10am, no, there would be a long queue if we had breakfast earlier. Dinner that evening was a nightmare, the restaurant was packed, 3 bus groups were in and remained in the restaurant the 25mins we were there. I had to ask individuals to hold a metre distance from me, but they laughed in my face and replied they we fully vaccinated....I was not. The 'hot'food was barely warm and the plates were cold pretty standard in Norwegian hotels unfortunately. I felt like we were being offered the leftovers after someone else's party, the buffet was pretty much empty. I was livid, we could have had a 3 course a la carte meal for what we paid for these' leftovers'. I asked at reception if I could give some feedback and related our experience and how shocked I was at the hotels blatant disregard for CV19 precautions. She said she would speak to the tour guides for the bus groups. Next morning we went to breakfast at 8.30am, the restaurant was almost empty and we were able to relax and spend more time over it than dinner the evening before. I dreaded dinner but was pleasantly surprised to find order and system in the restaurant, the woman I spoke to in reception was there and is evidently a manager but never presented herself. The buffet was more filled than the evening before but the hot food was again tepid and the plates cold. I took the opportunity to thank her and she said that the tour guides and groups had been reminded of the current restrictions. The hotel is an old mountain hotel, well maintained but nothing special, staff weren't particularly friendly and when we checked out we weren't asked if we enjoyed our stay.
2. Vradal Hyttegrend
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 17 reviews
Vradal Hyttegrend (Hyttegrend means chalet village) consists of 20 comfortable wooden chalets, complete with saunas. The chalets are designed for two families sleeping 8 persons. The village overlooks Lake Nisser in the county of Telemark. The site is wonderfully situated in a quiet and children safe environment.
Good location and cabin
Reviewed By BrucetravellingStayed here for a week, my son and I in a cabin that could sleep 8. Well equipped, great views and well positioned for the lower part of the country. The site owners were very helpful and the local shop was really well stocked and friendly. Although a little expensive for just the two of us, if you fill it with 6 or 8, it’s great accommodation with views you could just watch all day.

One word: organised theft.
Reviewed By HappyBuddha73We arrived late in the evening with our motorbikes and could rent a cabin for 750kr. We had to pay a deposit of 600kr on top, which would be deposited back afterward on my credit card. We could just leave the key on the cabindoor. Obviously no need for inspection. We left the day afterwards after having cleaned the cabin. We did just sleep there so I vacuumed the whole place and left. A few days afterwards I checked my account and the 600kr wasn't deposited back and I didn't get no mail or phone from them so I called. The guy said without any shame that we had left 3,5 hours too late (which is a big lie because we are bikers and we always leave early to get the most out of our day) and that the cabin was so dirty they had to hire a cleaning lady to do the jobb for us. (????!!!!) WTF!? In other words: we didn't get our deposit back. I tried to call back once more afterwards, but they refused my call and didn't reply voicemail or mails anymore. As I was already miles away, turning back was not an option and the police would probably just laugh at us if we would file a complaint. I slept bad from it for several nights. We had just been robbed in a way only cowards and chiefs do. The only thing I could think about was:"what if they do this to 100 tourists a season"?
