Good location for public transport.
Room was adequate for a short stay, could benefit from Aircon but accept that our stay was during exceptionally hot weather.
Breakfast was exceptional!

I wish there was AC. As a minimum, the hotel should supply all rooms with fans as a standard so you do not have to ask the staff and wait till one becomes available. Breakfast is great and staff is wonderfull.

The staff here were fantastic. So friendly and helpful. Breakfast was always fresh with plenty of choice.
It is very conveniently located. The bus station, shops, Bryggen and the Floibanen funicular are all within a 10 to 15 minute walk.
The rooms are a little dated but this is a minor issue. We had everything we needed and enjoyed our stay.

We stayed two nights in different rooms with a family of four. It is convenient to the docks for the Fjord tours. The first room had four beds which were nice. The second room had two beds from pullout couches which were uncomfortable and then the bathtub leaked all the water onto the bathroom floor. It was a rough morning getting a bad night's rest and dealing with a lot of water on the floor. The breakfast was good both mornings.

Room was very functional, but the glass shower door was loose and did not stay in a position to stop water from leaking on to the bathroom floor. Very friendly staff and one of the most amazing Hotel breakfast buffets I have ever had! Definitely recommend!
