Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is compact and suitable for two people but lacks baths or views in rooms. The service is friendly, efficient, and genuine, with one minor misunderstanding quickly resolved. The location, although not ideal due to accessibility issues, offers good access to the city center. The dining experience is standard with high-quality options available in the adjacent building. The hotel's facilities are adequate for a comfortable stay.
The hotel offers small but clean rooms, somewhat like an outdated self-catering flat rather than a traditional hotel room. The service was a mixed experience with demands made in Norwegian but also friendly gestures like an early check-in with a room change. Its location provides a scenic view of the sea and hills, although a bit far from the fjord shore. Dining options were average, and the facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
The hotel rooms were small and a bit 'tired' but still functional, with a well-stocked minibar. They are a bit tight for two people, yet clean, quiet, and cool during warm weather. The service was lovely, with the staff being excellent and accommodating. The location is excellent with a view of the sea and hills, although there's no access to the fjord shore. The dining was good with plenty to choose from, offered early in the morning. The facilities are decent, including dry cleaning and laundry services.
