Kronen Gaard Hotell, WorldHotels Crafted, welcomes guests to a charming Swiss chalet-style villa nestled in the tranquil Sandnes countryside. Built in 1898 by timber merchant Gabriel Block Watne, this historic yellow villa, framed by graceful beech trees, was once a beloved summer residence and lively gathering place for family and friends. Today, it remains a warm and inviting retreat, just five minutes from Sandnes city centre and only 15 minutes from both Sola Airport and Stavanger. The hotel’s unique character shines through in every detail, from its 32 individually decorated rooms, each with its own story, to inviting suites like the romantic Bridal Suite in the old henhouse. Kronen Gaard is renowned for its “honest food” philosophy, with a kitchen that crafts delicious, unfussy dishes from the best local ingredients. Guests can unwind in the serene gardens, host memorable events in Bryggerhuset, or simply soak up the friendly, informal atmosphere. At Kronen Gaard, you’ll enjoy peaceful countryside views, warm hospitality, and a true sense of history.
