"We arrived early and were able to leave our luggage in a safe secure area behind reception. The staff were very friendly, the lounge and bar area were very nice and free hot drinks were available 24/7. Dinner and breakfast were included in the price of the room which definitely helped keep the cost of the trip down. Highly recommend and if I travel through this part of the world again I wouldn’t hesitate to stay in this hotel."

"Refined hotel with kind & supportive staff. "

"This was a last minute change of hotel. The room was lovely and spacious. The bed and sofa were all really comfortable. The reception staff were welcoming and friendly, the lady on reception on departure helped us to call a taxi using the tablet."

"This property was big and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked and the heated floors in the bathroom were amazing on cold mornings. You can’t beat the central location - one night I was able to watch a Christmas concert from the living room window. There are lots of toys that my niece and nephew enjoyed when they visited. Challenges that can be easily fixed: I didn’t get the key to the condo until 7 hours after the check in time, communication by phone with the host was challenging, all of the host’s clothes are in the closets and drawers so I was not able to unpack my suitcase for my weeklong stay. Overall it was a great location and I would return! "

"It's a nice place but seriously overpriced, even for Norway. A nice enough buffet for 800NOK! 500NOK for 6 ocean crayfish. 350ke for 2hrs late checkout? Come on. Sure, the location is nice and the view is great and the breakfast is fine. But it's too much. "
