Lundins Hotell: where the past meets Norwegian elegance

In the heart of the picturesque town of Skudeneshavn, on Norway’s southwestern coast, stands Lundins Hotel – a place where time seems to stand still. Its walls tell stories from bygone eras, and each room holds the discreet charm of hospitality from another time. Here, among wooden ceilings, original details, and a cozy atmosphere, guests can rediscover the authentic soul of romantic Norway.

Lundins Hotel is not just a place to stay, but the core of a unique experience: The Time Journey. In collaboration with Panoramahyttene – the iconic cabin suspended over the sea with ultra-modern design – a one-of-a-kind itinerary was born, allowing travelers to experience the two faces of Norway in one journey. One night overlooking the fjord, immersed in the minimalist silence of modern design. And then, a return to land, wrapped in the warm embrace of a historic building where time speaks through every detail.

During your stay, we recommend a visit to the charming Skudeneshavn Museum, tucked away in the narrow streets of the old town. With vintage photos, everyday objects from the past, and local curiosities, the museum offers an intimate look into the maritime and town life of yesteryear. It’s an invitation to get lost in the stories of the locals and admire the white houses lining the harbor.

Skudeneshavn itself is renowned for its rich maritime heritage and welcoming atmosphere. The town rose to prominence as a fishing village and vibrant shipping hub during the great herring fisheries of the 19th century. Its historic center, known as “Gamle Skudeneshavn,” is a charming cluster of white wooden houses and boathouses from the mid-1800s, officially recognized by the Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage in 2018.

Lundins Hotell is, in essence, more than just a hotel: it is a doorway to the past, a haven for the soul, and an invitation to slow down, listen, and breathe in the beauty of time gently passing by.
