    nice staff

    Just an appropriate option for a couple of nights in Kristiansand with good value for money. Staff was nice, making check-in pretty easy. If you're planning to work out, skip the gym in the sauna—it’s not functional.

    great breakfast
    friendly staff
    inconsistent hot water

    Cool place with great breakfast!

    We had a nice stay! The room was modern and clean, although a bit compact. The breakfast spread was awesome, so many options! Only issue was the hot shower, it didn't get as warm as I wanted. Overall, it's a comfy spot if you want to chill and enjoy some good food.

    convenient location
    great breakfast
    designated parking
    lack of elevator

    This hotel was a great family spot! We loved the convenience of being just a few minutes from the harbor, making it easy to catch our ferry. The breakfast was fantastic, and it was a bonus to have a designated parking area underneath the hotel.

    In my wife’s opinion, having a lift would be great for families with children.

    The breakfast selection was extensive, and the staff's warm hospitality truly enhanced our experience. However, the noise from the bar area made it difficult to sleep at times.

    delicious breakfast
    ideal location
    close to restaurants
    difficult parking
    odd furnishings

    Breakfast was a feast—think epic varieties that danced on the palate! The location couldn't be beat, just steps from local gems like Saigon Nam Nam for tasty pho and Harveys Bar for a chill nightcap. 🤤

    Navigating to parking felt like solving a puzzle—way at the back, no ramp, and heavy bags gave me a workout! The view of the interior lobby made the room feel a bit closed off and odd furnishings didn't quite vibe with me.

The hotel's prime positioning made it easy to explore the city, with shops and restaurants within walking distance. However, the air conditioning in the room didn't work well, which was a bit uncomfortable.
