Welcome to the Historical Fretheim Hotel!

Flåm has since the mid-1800s, when English lords travelled to the Sognefjord for salmon fishing, been a popular place for tourists. The guests were first accommodated at Christen Fretheim's farm, but in 1879 he built the first part of Fretheim Hotel.

With our history as a source for inspiration, Fretheim Hotel can offer close encounters with the best of the Sognefjord culture, local tastes and spectacular views towards the fjord and mountains.
