“Fantastic location, nice host, flat not so well suited for staying in”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 August 2010

We (parents and two grown-up children, 19 and 21) stayed for two days in Amalie's guesthouse in a two bedroom flat in the basement. The location of the flat is really, really nice, close to the centre and to Fløibanen (the funicular up to the Fløi mountain) and in a neighbourhood with old white wooden houses. The flat has ample daylight despite of it being in the basement. The bedrooms are quite okay, and the beds also. The kitchen/sitting room we found to be a bit small for staying in :There was no choice but to sit at the dining table for the three of us, as there was only one armchair in a corner. There is WiFi access in the flat, which some of us appreciated! The supply of kitchenware was somewhat lacking compared to what we found elsewhere in Norway - for example, there were only three large plates (and also three small plates), no serving spoons (or rather only one, which was much too large) and no coffee maker. The flat was also not spotlessly clean. But then again, Marielle did not know when we would arrive, and the ones before us left quite late, so she did not have much time for cleaning in between. These points aside, Marielle was really kind and took time to give us a map and direct us to a really nice and comparatively cheap place to eat: USF Verftet, at Nordnes. Also, she told us where we could park the car for free.

“Charming guesthouse -- good value for Bergen”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 September 2006

people found this review helpful

We stayed one night at Amalie's Guesthouse, but wished we had stayed longer. There are 2 flats -- one with 2 double bedrooms that share a large bathroom and kitchen/dining/living area. In this flat, the bedrooms have separate keys, and this is the one I stayed in (600kn/2 people). The other I believe rents as a 2-bedroom flat.

Our apartment was truely lovely -- fully modern and fresh and clean and spacious. Fully fitted kitchen and really large bathroom, with laundry facilities. This would be great for a longer stay -- they have thought of everything here! And even for a shorter stay, having a kitchen is pretty handy with the food in Norway pretty pricey.

The house is set up on the hill in the beautiful, historic part of the city centre. The winding streets with brightly-painted houses are charming! Marielle, who met us at the door, was also warm and kind and helpful. Really loved this place -- will look to go back!

But do be warned that the walk up to the house may not be appropriate for those with difficulty walking uphill and/or loads of luggage.
