"The wildest alpine valley I ever saw was not in the Alps, it was the valley Norangsdalen at Sunnmøre, Norway."

..an English tourist called Hotel Union Øye in the 1890’s

The year is 1891. Europe’s aristocracy and upper classes seek new and exciting destinations with spectacular scenery. The clientele for which the Union Hotel in Øye by the Hjørund fjord opened its doors this year was fastidious. The guest register shows a line of success: Queen Willemina of the Netherlands, Emperor Wilhelm II of Germany, King Oscar II of Sweden and Norway, and Queen Maud and King Haakon VII of Norway are some of the royalty who enjoyed their stay. The hotel was restored in the original style in 1989, and now appears as it did in its heyday.

All 27 rooms, most of them with four-poster beds, are deliberately without TV, radio and telephone. Hotel Union Øye is like an fairy-tale from "La belle époque".
