I've read other reviews for this hotel and I disagree with most of them. I found the staff helpful and friendly but waaay too good looking! The room was big enough, warm, very clean, power shower (amazing) and heated towel rail (great for drying clothes) in a decent sized bathroom. Toiletries as standard, as was the wireless broadband, which seems... more

First Hotel Marin in Bergen is good, the rooms are large and clean. Breakfast is not very pleasant (too many people, too much noise, nothing left by 9 am). It is average. more

Staying at this hotel was a nightmare. The staff was totaly ignorant of the town, could never get any help. The room was good for bats. 3 15W lamps was all that was available. The mattress was a think horrible thing. Some heavy cover made you sweat when used or freezed when moved out. The bathroom did not have soap... more

The First Marin is an adequate but no frills hotel, with its single biggest attraction being its phenomenal location in the splendid heart of Bergen. Just one block down the hill is the spectacular, medieval Bryggen wharf and market area, while a block east is the unforgettable funicular that hoists you in near vertical and panoramic style to the most... more

We stayed here for one night as part of a Globus tour in June 2009. This hotel is in great location. You are one block from the main shopping street and a block from the Floibanen (funicular). There was a grocery store a few blocks away. Our room and bathroom were huge. We had two twin beds pushed together and... more

We stayed at the Marin the week of June 28th for three nights. The First Hotel Marin in Bergen is what one might think of as a typical European mid-range tourist hotel. The rooms are decent and adequate to the need. The hotel itself is very quiet on the inside. Virtually no noise can be heard from inside the hotel.... more

We were put in this hotel when our reserved hotel could not accommodate us due to damage in some rooms. We arrived late and check in was very quick! The room was large and very nice as was the bathroom. The beds were very comfortable. Breakfast was very good although the dining room was quite crowded. We were only there... more

We spent a wonderful weekend at the First Hotel. We got a family suite . It was very spacious, more than enough for my wife and two small kids. The staff in the hotel is as friendly as it gets. Hotel is located in the very center of Bergen, a few steps from museums, the ocean, etc. We can't wait... more

we stayed here for 3 days and it was terrible. the rooms were very old and not cleaned well. The staff could have cared less. we paid over 500.oo US dollar per night for poor service and a dirty room. The restuarant/bar was eve nworse we waited over 15minutes before anyone even greeted us to sit us. Then the food... more
