The original Norwegian landscape hotel: glass-walled rooms scattered through a river gorge, each angled so you cannot see another.
Juvet more or less invented the category everything else on this page belongs to. The rooms are separate structures set on stilts through a birch gorge above the Valldøla river, each with one wall of glass and each rotated so that no room can see into another. Nothing outside is landscaped. That is the idea.
Film crews found it — it stood in for a tech billionaire's retreat in Ex Machina, and later for the Roys in Succession — but it remains a small, family-run operation on a working farm rather than the resort those associations suggest.
Best for: anyone who cares about buildings as much as about the view out of them
