Absolutely enjoyed 10 days on this historic property! The property is adjacent to the fortress and the hotel is a converted Soldiers barracks.
A sense of tranquility and peacefulness surrounds you when you walk around the property. The property is well maintained and oversees the city of Halden.
The staff made my family feel like home. The staff were professional and kind; they made us feel welcomed. The staff checked on our family when we were off the property for over 24 hours to ensure we were ok and safe.
The daily breakfast buffet was delicious with an array of local, organic, cold and hot items. The dining area is clean and have the best lasagna on their dinner menu.
We plan to return to Norway and plan to return to the Fredriksten!

God og enkel frokost.været er noe ikke hotellet kan gjøre noe med . Noe varierende di dagene jeg var der nå.som begrenser en litt da heller festnings område er noe som overgår det meste ..for noen uker siden var jeg der med finn vær . inntrykket må bare oppleves.. .kort vei til diverse butikker. Rolig og hyggelig personale.ingen trapper i bygget altså heis.
Jeg kommer snart tilbake. Mulig halden videre kan by på gode opplevelser..

Små rom m 2 senger m veldig myke madrasser. Vanskelig å bruke baderom. Jeg bruker rullator ( skrev d)og trinn opp ditt var vond. Toalett lav og lite plass å kunne bruke hjelpemiddel. Frokost - kald bacon middels varm mat. Ellers «vanlig tilbud» dog fint nær mat.

Hurra for Fredriksten festning
Fint å bo på Hotel Fredriksten festning. Små rom i den gamle kasernen, men rent og ordentlig. Gode senger. Veldig god frokostbuffet med mye hjemmelaget mat av god kvalitet! Også økologiske alternativer. Hyggelige og oppmerksomme ansatte.
