The convenience of this hotel and the friendly staff topped the bad bed, but I would expect a hotel
Pros:

The downstairs lobby was very nice, comfortable and inviting. Loved the afternoon tea. Breakfast was good. Light dinner was wonderful to have available by very repetitive, so not for more than one night. Staff was very nice, friendly, helpful and accommodating with luggage holds, etc. The location was great!

Cons:

View of office courtyard, lit all night. The bed was saggy. Not comfortable and the comforter was in two parts, so didn't cover.

Outstanding Hotel!
Pros:

All round the hotel exceeded our expectations. Staff were great and very helpful. The evening meal which was included in our stay was tasty and good value. This was served as a buffet option. The lounge was always very welcoming after a Bergen wet day!

Cons:

The evening meal cut off time seemed quite prompt. I would have prefered it to be later, this would as well stop the busy period from which the meal is offered.

Exceptional stay.
Pros:

This Hotel was in the best location. The staff were so helpful and nothing seemed to be a bother. The breakfast and light dinner were exceptional. We didn’t stay for afternoon tea as we were out and about. The Hotel also offer a steam room and Sauna. We used the sauna and it was just what we needed. Overall we were so happy we stayed here.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

Location and they saved dinner for us as we arrived late.

Cons:

Had booked taxi with front desk two days before departure to catch flight but taxi did not come and staff did not go out of their way to give any recommendation. Simply said Taxi has not been dispatched. Had to call Uber by myself and was more than 30 mins late compared to original plan. I relied on staff input to take taxi rather than airport bus and had unnecessary stress.

Lage perfekt, Hotel mittelmässig
Pros:

Zentrale, beste Lage

Cons:

Keine Dienstleistungen, weder im Zimmer noch beim Frühstück und Nachtessen. Bei einer zeitigen Abreise in der Früh Richtung Flughafen, keine Flexibilität betreffend Frühstück, konsequent erst ab 7 Uhr. Qualität und Dienstleistung beim Nachtessen wie in einer Kantine.

Nice hotel in great location, which includes a great breakfast and simple dinner.
Pros:

We enjoyed the walkable location on the Bergen waterfront. It was close enough to walk to everything without being right in the middle of all tourist activities. The room was spotless with a nice view if a bit small. The hotel provided a wonderful breakfast buffet and a free simple dinner; a homestyle main dish and a small buffet of sides. The dinner came in handy when we came back tired from a full day excursion. No need to race out to a restaurant, or worry about having a reservation. There is a nice bar on site and a lovely rooftop lookout if you ask the front desk for the key.

Cons:

There wasn’t much luggage or hanging space in the room. Also, the bedding was just a duvet which was too warm for mid-summer, even in Norway.

Good place to stay in central Bergen.
Pros:

The location is superb, right on the quayside at Bryggen. Comfortable room, breakfast and dinner were good. Staff friendly and knowledgeable.

Cons:

Bit of a wait to use the elevator when a group arrived. Often used the stairs!
