Summer stay at Dalen
Bright summer days, calm surroundings and experiences by Lake Bandak.
Summer at Dalen has been a destination for more than a century.
Since the late 1800s, travellers have journeyed here to experience the landscape, the hotel and the tranquillity found at the far end of Telemark. That same sense of calm, presence and long summer days remains today.
The days begin slowly, with breakfast overlooking the water. Later, enjoy Afternoon Tea in the hotel’s historic lounges or on the terrace, surrounded by the gardens and views across Lake Bandak. Between meals, there is time to explore the grounds, wander through the gardens, or simply settle into one of the hotel’s elegant salons and let the day unfold at its own pace.
As evening approaches, the experience gathers around the table. A bottle of Champagne awaits in your room before the day concludes with a three-course dinner in Restaurant Bandak, while the summer light lingers over the lake and the house gradually settles into stillness.
This is Dalen in summer: a blend of history, nature and time well spent.
