Right in the heart of Telemark lies Seljord, the realm of the fabled sea serpent of Seljord lake. Seljord Hotell has traditions going back to 1857, and has at various times in its history been a coaching station, a domestic science school, an inn and a hotel. Seljord Hotell is a small, comfortable, timber-built hotel in the pseudo-Swiss style, and welcomes guests with a warm, home-from-home atmosphere. It is an ideal base for individual tourists and groups, and also offers good food, banqueting and course/conference facilities.
