Union Øye Norway
Located amongst the show-stopping Norwegian Fjords, Hotel Union Øye is a bucket list destination for landscape enthusiasts. Guests spend their days exploring the surrounding Fjords scenery – of dramatic mountainscapes, crystal-clear lakes, waterfalls and blooming meadows – whether hiking or biking, fishing, boating, skiing or even by helicopter. Second only to the natural setting is the hotel’s centuries-old history, visible in its authentic Norwegian facade colored in deep red and creamsicle. Today, Union Øye hotel boasts an intimate 22 suites, each named for the notable artists and explorers (and even royals) who have visited. Guests shouldn’t miss an evening in the on-site piano lounge complete with cozy velvet couches and a fireplace, perhaps following a cooking class at the (you guessed it) ultra-authentic Norwegian restaurant.
