Ørsta-Volda Airport, Hovden: where to stay, areas and recommended…

Ørsta-Volda Airport is located in the village of Hovdebygda and has nothing to do with the similarly named ski resort of Hovden, in Agder, hundreds of kilometres away: it's simply the name of the village hosting the runway. The terminal is just 5 minutes by car from both Ørsta and Volda, the two towns that share the traffic of Widerøe flights. Ørsta, facing its own fjord and surrounded by the Sunnmøre Alps, offers the only hotel in the area with a verifiable history of reviews.

Ørsta

Nearby town · About 5 minutes by car from Hovdebygda terminal; Volda is just as close, on the opposite side of the airport.

Best for: Those flying with Widerøe who want a real town centre a few minutes from the terminal, surrounded by the Sunnmøre Alps.

Pros

Shops, restaurants and the fjord are within walking distance of the hotel, in the small centre of Ørsta
The Sunnmøre Alps are already visible from the hotel's rooftop terrace

Cons

The hotel options are limited to a single property with a consistent history of reviews
Outside Widerøe flight times there is no public transport to the terminal: you need a car or a taxi
