Great location, amazing included breakfast, helpful staff. Be aware there is no AC and rooms get really hot. Had to move rooms because, due to room layout, couldn’t open window while sleeping.

It felt like a personal service. Everyone was very helpful. The reception manager was very knowledgeable and extremely competent. The food both at breakfast and evening buffet in the restaurant was fabulous. This was the second time that I had stayed. And would stay there again!

Check Credit Card statement regularly in Norway
The 2nd time in our short Norway trip we have been charged again for a room previously paid, well paid months ago when we booked. The really frustrating thing is they did not tell us. We only found out when we checked our statement. Needing to ring up to get a refund, although they said it had been done but no notification from them about it at all and the amount is still on our account. So did they really discover the error before we rang? 2nd time we have been told the same story.

We didn't realise we needed to pre-book parking and the lot was full, so we parked on the large car park next door but had to pay via the Easypark app. The hotel location and views are fabulous. Breakfast was good, good selection and very comfortable experience. The hotel has a bar and some snack available from reception too.

Very pleasant stay
Location was perfect, on the water and you can walk the center of town from the hotel. We took a taxi to the cruise port terminal, which is only a few miles away. No need to call for a taxi, we just stepped out front a waived one down. Breakfast buffet was awesome, with plenty of choices and food was delicious. Staff was very courteous and helpful. After checking out, they let us store our bags in a safe room while we enjoyed the walk around town. I would definitely recommend. Oh and most importantly the bed was very comfortable.

Pretty ok hotel
The hotel was in a great location, lots of great food and sightseeing nearby. Public transportation has stops nearby that gives you full access to the city. The hotel claiming to be a “4 star” hotel is a significant stretch. (Trash in the can from last guest, low quality mattress/bedding, instant coffee, etc.) Hotels.com’s app is trash, just use the website
