The romance begins right when you step into our doors. You’ll find a bottle of bubbly and a tray of fresh fruit in your room. Then for dinner – a quiet, romantic, candlelit 3-course meal for two in the gallery.

For those who want to do an activity, there are a variety of opportunities nearby. For example, a trip to Dalsnuten, Preikestolen, or 7-nutsturen.

We also recommend a stroll in Sandnes city center and Langgata with good shopping opportunities.

Included in the package is an overnight stay for two people, in a historic double room, with a bottle of sparkling wine and fruit platter ready on arrival.

In the room you will find luxurious bathrobes. A great 3-course dinner and a delicious breakfast buffet downstairs in the restaurant are included.

We can offer spa treatments and skin care at our neighbor, Four Season Spa in Langgata, if you want to nurture your body and soul.

Practical information

Parking

Sandnes city center has plenty of available street parking spaces, payable via an automated payment machine (accepts coins or cards), a parking meter, or an app (EasyPark). Most of these parking spaces are short-term; this is to guarantee circulation within the narrow streets of the city center, so that everyone can eventually find a free space.

In certain streets, such as St. Olavs gate, there are a few long-term parking spaces available. Be sure to check the signs carefully.

Electric Vehicles

There are 3 charging stations in Sandnes: Eidsvollgata (by Vitenfabrikken), Storgata 52, and Langgata 66.

Bystasjonen Parking Garage
