  Description

  Welcome to the historic hotel in beautiful Marifjøra, Norway!
  
  We are a small team that has lovingly re-opened this charming hotel in 2025, with the goal of bringing its soul and unique history — dating all the way back to 1639 — back to life. Nestled by the fjord and surrounded by stunning nature, our hotel offers guests a peaceful and authentic experience rooted in local tradition and warm hospitality.
  
  As part of our revival project, we are looking for enthusiastic and friendly Workawayers to help us with serving in the restaurant and assisting with guest services. Whether you have experience or simply a positive attitude and a willingness to learn, we would love to welcome you into our team.
  
  This is a unique opportunity to be part of a living piece of Norwegian history while enjoying the breathtaking surroundings of the Sognefjord region.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Staying with us offers a unique opportunity to experience authentic Norwegian culture in a truly historic setting. The hotel dates back to 1639 and has played an important role in local history — you’ll be surrounded by stories, traditions, and architecture from centuries past.
  
  You’ll get to know the rhythms of life in a small fjord village, meet locals, and work closely with a passionate team committed to preserving the charm and soul of this special place. We love sharing our knowledge about Norwegian food, customs, and the stunning natural surroundings of the Sognefjord.
  
  In return, we’re always curious to learn from your background, language, and experiences — cultural exchange goes both ways, and we look forward to meaningful conversations and shared moments.

  Possibilité d’accueillir les digital nomads

  We welcome digital nomads who are looking for a balanced lifestyle — combining meaningful, hands-on work with time for personal projects or remote work. We have stable Wi-Fi throughout the hotel, including in the accommodation areas, and there are quiet spaces where you can work on your laptop during your free time. However, please note that our help schedule is based on fixed shifts, usually during breakfast and/or dinner service. This means you’ll need to organize your remote work around these hours.
