Thon Partner Hotel Vinstra

If you are looking for a hotel in a scenic spot this is not for you! But if you need a comfortable, friendly hotel to stay overnight in between A & B then this is perfect! On arrival my thought was "Oh great, we are staying in a crappy hotel at a truck stop/gas station!" That being said I was very impressed! The room was comfortable & modern, had a large bathroom with a great shower, comfy beds & the staff were wonderful. We had a view of the parking lot but others in our group had a view of the countryside. The rooms are in a separate building to the restaurant but were away from the gas station & were quiet. In the main building is a cafeteria-like restaurant, but the food that was cooked to order was simple (burgers etc) but tasty & they even provided me with a GF burger bun. There was a decent bar, and although the eating area was a bit like a motorway service area & not intimate, there is a comfortable lounge with tv, & tables & chairs outside next a quiet green space. Breakfast was great & I would say probably one of the most generous on our trip around Norway, with gluten-free bread option for our group members with allergies. I would definitely stop overnight here again. It had everything a group of tired, damp bikers needed!
