I stayed in a single room which was a lot bigger than expected. The hotel is either very new or recently redecorated; it is stylish and gorgeous. The beds were fantastic, and the price was not bad at all.

As independent travellers we found this hotel are only interested in their conference guests. Not one staff member, including the breakfast waitress bothered to greet us in the morning. Breakfast buffet was very ordinary. Think there may be better hotels in the city that treat guests with some respect.

Stay here occassionally when I need to spend the night in town rather than going home. The hotel is only a few years old and was built in conjunction with the new Rådhuset, or Town Hall. It's a very "green" hotel, ecological in every possible way, which I think sets the standard for eco-friendly hotels. The rooms are bright and airy and have all you need to make your stay comfortable. Everything is modern and of a high standard. Huge buffet breakfast is served in the ground floor restaurant, looking out onto the pedestrian precinct. There are plenty of other restaurants in the near vicinity, particularly recommend walking down to the "Brygga" or waterfront, where there is a vast array of eating ootions, all with a view of the river and with outdoor seating in good weather. The hotel has a good little fitness centre and there is a very popular bar ln the top floor with great views. The hotel offers good deals on weekend stays - don't be afraid to ask if they have any current offers at the time of your booking. Great service with a willingness to please, but don't expect gushing smiles - that's not the Norwegian way - quiet efficiency and an eye for detail us more the Norwegian style. There is a cinema right next door to the hotel and both the bus station and train station are a short walk away. Very good business facilities. Would recommend this hotel to business and leisure teavellers alike.

I stayed here with some colleagues on a business trip. One thing which stood out for me (usually its the first thing I observe) is just how good the staff were. Let me explain:

The checkin was fast and efficient.
Service at the bar was great - even the barmaid would chat openly with you whilst she's working behind the bar.
The restaurant waiter was there whenever we needed him.
The room was extremely clean
When asked - the staff gave us a great explaination of what was available within the town.

The hotel itself was very modern, clean and quiet. All in all though, the staff made it for me here.

Would I stay here again - yes!
