Farris Bad

Service and communication was excellent Location is excellent very close to the train station ideal for an overnight stay if you’re travelling into another destination. Food was very good value for the money.

I recommend a stay at this resort. I enjoyed every minute of my stay. Athmosphere, saunas, food, and service is 100% perfect.

The shower in the hotel room was made of cheap plastic and didn´t work well. The water temperature of the shower was maximum lukewarm warm at all times. The price of a bottle of Sprite was Nkr. 65, which was unreasonable expensive even in Norway. The stay was pre-booked several weeks in advance, including a small dog. On arrival date we were told we had no room that accepted a dog, a miscommunication between customer service department and the front desk staff. We had to wait 30 minutes for the mess to be cleared up.

Overall, excellent place to come to relax and fully disconnect from the world. Great staff, great spa, great food, great rooms. The SPA isn't big, but it has everything you need for an excellent stay - variety of saunas, the pool, several jacuzzi, and excellent, inspiring, uplifting sauna events led by knowledgeable sauna masters.

First and foremost, we are incredibly disappointed. We believed Farris Bad was one of Norway's best spa hotels, offering top-quality experiences. That’s why I happily treated my pregnant partner to a birthday stay, including a maternity package with a prenatal massage. Shortly after arrival, we were told the therapist was unavailable due to illness. I assumed we’d get a proper refund and enjoy the rest of the spa. Instead, we paid 600 NOK per person for an unimpressive lunch buffet. The spa itself was a huge letdown: a cold main pool, overcrowded grotto, and saunas my pregnant partner couldn’t use. An outdoor jacuzzi was far too cramped. The milk bath we were offered as compensation was one of the few highlights. Dinner was equally mediocre, far from what we expected. The room was fine, and the beds were decent but nothing remarkable. At checkout, I was told we’d only get 600 NOK refunded for the canceled massage since we booked a package. This is unacceptable when the whole point of the trip was the massage, and the rest didn’t justify the price. I expect this matter to be addressed.

Elendig massage Fint hotell. Elendig massage. Bestilte en luksus for to-pakke. Absolutt ikke verdt det.
