Hotel Union Øye

At the end of a fjord with the Sunnmøre Alps stacked behind it, this historic hotel still has a working "ring for champagne" bell in the Queen's Suite, which tells you something about the tone. Rooms in the main timber house run Edwardian and grand; newer farmhouse suites go turf-roofed and Nordic minimal. Evenings settle into piano music and firelit lounges. The Michelin Guide awarded it one Key.
