At 2am in the morning, after our booking at Sophie's House was dishonoured, 7 bleary-eyed friends wandered the streets of Bergen looking for a place to rest their weary heads! The gentleman at reception at the Best Western was fantastic and helped find us 3 rooms at the hotel at discounted rates.
The rooms itself were basic (double room had small doubles) and the bathroom was fairly tight. We were all given non-smoking rooms but given the time we arrived, none of us complained!
The hotel was in a very convenient location - about a 5 - 10 minute walk to the fishmarkets / tourist centre (and where the airport bus stops). There were renovations going on which started at 7:30am but it didn't affect any of us...!
Breakfast was ok - nothing to write home about. Cold meats, cereal, fish etc. were on the menu. We did spot a bakery enroute to the fishmarkets if cold meats are not your 'thing'.
Note about Sophie's House - the owner neither returned calls, voicemail or emails about our supposedly 'confirmed' booking!!
