L., 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Friendly staff, fantastic breakfast. Only concern was room door locks… unique to Norway.. should be instructions in room on how to use… need to scan your card against lock when leaving… came back one day to fund my door wide open… Convenient location… would stay here again.

It’s fine, wouldn’t stay longer than a few days

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was tasty. The locations decent for the price. However there was quite a bit of miscommunication about room cleaning. The hotel is good in that they are eco friendly and do not waste resources by cleaning every day but we requested a clean and never got it. Then when we asked for them to clean, someone came and folded our bedspreads but did not sweep or empty trash or give us new towels. When requested new towels we got some though. The rooms are very basic and small but have everything you need, and again, the desk staff is very kind and helpful.

Well located, close to train station, many restaurants around and 10 min walk of Bryggen. Good price with breakfast. Quiet and safe.

2/10 Poor

Terrible

Unfortunately my son booked this hotel where he got a bad experience. He arrived at 10PM after a long trip from Oslo so he could not remember the room number. The lady who was charge of checking in yelled at him. Then later she accused him of running away. I did not like they took advanced of him because he is a younger man and he was alone. If I could ask for a refund I would love it. Please avoid this hotel if you are traveling alone. I was worry of my son’s safety after she accused of running away. Running away from what?

Great family hotel

We stayed for 2 nights at the end of a week skiing in Norway. The hotel had a great location in the city in easy reach of the light rail, train and bus routes. The family room was a great layout and very comfortable and clean. Staff were extremely helpful and their spoken English was great. The cleaners always spoke when we passed them in the corridor which was lovely. Breakfast was amazing - the best we have had in a city hotel in a long time. The restaurant atmosphere was calm and relaxed and we felt that the children were very much welcome in the hotel. There was a huge choice of cold and hot food as well as a good choice for vegan and gluten free diets. We made use of the 'to go' coffee cups at the end of breakfast to take out into the city before we left. Highly recommend, great value for money and would stay here again if we were to stop over night in Bergen in the future.
MICHAEL, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very low comfort

The room was very hot, maybe 26-28°C during the whole stay with no cooling available except opening the windows. The windows were old and poorly insulated so they barely canceled any noices from the extensive traffic outside. The curtains in the room did not block light well, which would have been highly needed in the norwegian spring with sunrise at 4 in the morning. The combination of very high room temperature, a lot of sunlight and a lot of noices is not what you want for a good nights sleep. The room was also clearly worn overall, the door wouldnt lock until a few minutes later. The breakfast was good but it was hard to find a free table or chair in the mornings. However, the service on the hotel was good.The staff was friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel was great.

10/10 Exceptional

Location was excellent. Staff were mostly helpful. Rooms were terribly small and had only two plugs. One was at the desk at the foot of the bed, which was not helpful for plugging in a CPAP machine, the other was at floor level across from the bathroom. No plug near the bed.

Veldig bra service da jeg ankom rundt kl 12 og fikk sjekke inn tidlig. Frokosten var også god og hotellet er sentralt. Det som trekker ned er at det var svært varmt på rommet, ingen aircondition og vinduet kunne bare åpnes litt. Dette gjorde at jeg sov dårlig.
