When I was searching for a hotel near Preikestolen<\/strong>, there were not many options to choose from, as it was almost a last-minute trip. We wanted to start the hike to Preikestolen<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0early in the morning so we didn\u2019t want to waste too much time driving from Stavanger. Lilland Brewery hotel<\/strong> was one of the few descent options with private bathroom at affordable cost. The location seemed convenient as well, so I booked a double-bed room for one night. We were pleasantly surprised!<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Lilland Brewery hotel is located in Tau, approximately half way between Stavanger and Preikestolen parking. Hence, the place offers a very convenient base camp<\/strong> for exploring both destinations. It is only around 20-minute drive from Preikestolen<\/strong>, so our plan returning from the hike before breakfast was totally doable. The hotel offers free parking<\/strong> and it is within walking distance from Rema1000 and Extra Supermarket. Buses<\/strong> for Stavanger city center depart from a stop 200 metres from the hotel.<\/p>\n

Rooms<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Both, the room and the bathroom<\/strong> were relatively spacious. The bed was surprisingly comfortable<\/strong>, which is very important for a good start of a hiker\u2019s day. Bathroom toiletries, free in-room wi-fi and coffee maker were also there. Lilland Brewery also offers glamping options<\/strong>: two really nice tents are located behind the hotel. They have a private outside area with a small barbecue grill so you can make your own lunch or dinner. We were really tempted to stay in the tent, but we found the in-room bathroom option more comfortable.<\/p>\n

Breakfast and bar<\/strong><\/h5>\n

The breakfast was served in paper bags, one per each guest. I am not sure if this was because of covid-19 safety measures or is this something usual We found it very convenient and hygienic<\/strong>. You can take tea, coffee and juice<\/strong> from the bar (self-service), also throughout the day, and sit either inside or outside in a nice terrace. Since we were lucky with the weather and just came back from Preikestolen hike before 10 am, we took the terrace option. Great feeling!<\/p>\n

The hotel <\/strong><\/h5>\n

The hotel also has its own brewery<\/strong>, which means you can taste the variety of home-made beer right at the bar. Wi-fi is free of charge throughout the property. The bar and the lobby<\/strong> are really cozy with a warming d\u00e9cor that makes you feel like home. And so does the wonderful staff.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Anda\u2019s rate: 10 from 10<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Bottom line:<\/strong> Lilland Brewery<\/a> is officially a 3-star hotel so don\u2019t expect luxury rooms or 4-star self-service breakfast. However, the price performance was a perfect 10 in my book so I can easily recommend it to anyone who wants a comfortable room with breakfast and bathroom near Preikestolen.<\/p>\n
