Private celebrations

A special celebration with family and friends at Dalen Hotel

At Dalen, the experience begins from the moment you arrive. The hotel is more than simply a setting for the celebration — it becomes part of the occasion itself.

Here, guests gather in historic salons that have welcomed visitors for more than a hundred years, surrounded by nature and views of the mountains and Lake Bandak. At the innermost part of the Telemark Canal, the hotel rests within peaceful surroundings and distinctive gardens, creating a natural setting for celebrations, long meals and time together with family and friends.
