Clean room and great breakfast. Only minor thing which could have been better was more plug sockets next to the bed, only had one and only on one side.

This was a great base for us to spend 3 nights in Bergen before boarding the Havila ship for its northbound voyage.
The ambience of the hotel and friendly staff provided a warm introduction to Scandinavia.

Stayed here for a couple of during a trip to Bergen. Had communications prior and they were very responsive and helpful. Location was very good. Close to metro/bus stop and walking distance to Bergen centre. Room was clean, tidy and comfy. Tea and coffee facilities in the room also. Lovely view from the window of the mountain. Good selection for breakfast. Staff were friendly throughout stay here. No complaints, very good hotel.

Good location, clean but insufficient to comfort
Slow check-in as staff maintained room not paid for even though I’d pre- paid when I made the booking. Very small room, too small to be comfortable for two people. Too warm for sleeping and unable to cool room as no temperature controller. TV controller batteries were flat, had to go down to reception to change them. Not enough pillows - only one small, lumpy pillow provided for each person. Good breakfast, great location very close to main railway station.

The hotel is right by the Bergen bus station and its car park. However, about a 3 minute walk away is a beautiful park and the Kode art gallery. The light railway from the airport stops at the bus station.
The breakfast is ample and the staff are very friendly and courteous. The hotel is located about a 10 minute walk from Bryggen.
However, the rooms are fairly basic. Though clean, there are no extras. The bathroom is very basic too. The rooms are quite dark. Not cosy. Needs modernising or refurbishing. The rest of the hotel is modern, bright and welcoming.
I didn’t like the rooms. But the staff, breakfast and rest of the property were great.
