Kviknes Hotel is located in Balestrand on the Sognefjord, known as the King of the Fjords, and is one of the most distinguished hotels in the Nordic countries. As it is nestled along the longest and deepest fjord in Norway, getting to Kviknes Hotel is as much part of the experience as the stay itself. To truly appreciate the voyage, Kviknes Hotel recommends guests take Fjord1's express boat from Bergen into the Sognefjord. Departures run twice daily, with the full trip to Balestrand lasting around 4 hours.

Bus and train stations are located nearby the property and transportation arrangements can be made at the front desk. For eco-friendly drivers, parking with complimentary EV charging stations is available.
