Family-owned waterfront property in a renovated 1904 warehouse, found along the historic old harbor in the city of Alesund. Designed by renowned architectural firm Snøhetta, the 132 chic guest rooms and suites feature art nouveau interiors, white stained oak furnishings, a neutral color palette, exposed wooden beams, glass paneling and baths with cream tiles and frosted glass. Opt for one of the seaview accommodations. The unique (but small) Molja Lighthouse accommodation is in a 150-year-old lighthouse with a circular bedroom on the second floor. Restaurant MAKI specializes in seafood dishes; an atmospheric bar with modern lamps, leather chairs and a copper countertop. Outdoor activities include sea rafting, fishing, trekking, biking, helicopter tours and skiing; 18-hole Solnør Gaard golf course nearby.
