Advantages: Beautiful fjord scenary, friendly staff Disadvantages: A long way from Haugesund Town
...Accommodation in Hausgesund can be very difficult to come by. It is an industrial area with a large port and gas processing facilities that supply gas to northern europe and the UK. Hence at busy industrial times accomodation in town is sparse. Because of a ship being refitted in town we were forced to take accomodation in Ditt Tysaer Kro And Motel.
