About Restaurant Arven
Restaurant Arven is located on the 2nd floor of the historic hotel, with direct access from the Lobby bar and reception. The restaurant serves a good breakfast with a large and varied selection. The menu changes regularly according to the season and access to raw materials from the producers. In high season, from May to September, we also offer a rich buffet containing meat, fish, shellfish, fruit, salads, desserts and pastries.
A beautiful view
The large, panoramic windows with views towards the Aurlandsfjord and the surrounding mountains set the atmosphere. It1s just as beautiful during summer as it is on dark autumn and winter evening.

Menu
Restaurant Arven's menu will indulge all of your senses.
Whether you choose the buffet or from our a la carte menu, you are certain to find fresh and natural food. Drawing inspiration from traditional Norwegian cooking, our chef's aim to elevate the food using modern techniques. The goat has been a vital part of farming by the fjord but is not used much in most restaurants today. At Restaurant Arven, on the other hand, you find goat as the red thread throughout the menu – even in the desserts.
In winter fresh seafood is at its best, while spring is time for vegetables like asparagus and shoots. Summer is season for fresh vegetables and fruits, and in autumn we recommend warming dishes made of lamb and root vegetables.
