The location of the hotel, with a magnificent seaview from the 11th floor, thanks to Tina from reception! Well-appointed room with a nice lounge area and comfortable double bed. Huge and varied breakfast. Helpul and friendly staff. Parking conveniently attached to the property.

Slightly chaotic finding seating place for breakfast, but the meal more than made up for it :). Would be nice with a maitre d' showing guests to available seating during the rush hour.

Very good location in Kristiansand, you can reach both the center and the ferry terminal in less than 5 minutes walking. The hotel is standard, but good quality

If you travel by car, you need to pay for the parking (if you find a slot which are also super tight), and the fees are monstrous (I paid 360 NOK for 24 hours). The hotel staff recommended to use public parking along the street, but you would need to walk with luggage and your car would be out of sight.

great glutenfree breakfast options! First time on our Norway trip you didn‘t feel disappointed or „just eating for survival“ being unable for medical reasons to eat gluten. Staff was very helpful at breakfast to walk you through allergene issues, but some newer staff members need to be informed that you cannot take the same knife to cut glutenfree bread than normal bread (no harm was done as I know that myself, but to avoid medical emergencies, the topic of cross-contaminations should be addressed with the breakfast service staff.

although it is not cheap, the quality is there, so nothing to complain about.

Superb breakfast with a great variety. Quite long timings for the buffet breakfast - good for us who prefer a late breakfast. Great location near Odderoya and Fiskebrygga; also near the park/beach where we did our morning runs. Relatively near to the old town too.

We stayed at level 12, just one level below the skybar. The bar was a little noisy for us as we are rather early sleepers.

The closeness to the harbor and right in town. Ferries are right there also. The young man at Front desk was exceedingly friendly. His name is Mats and he was wonderful. He was very personable and showed genuine concern for us. We had driven 10 hours and were very hungry and tired. He found us a restaurant that was open on Sunday night. He is what customer service should look like.

Couldn't control the room temperature and the shower was a bit of a struggle

Breakfast buffet was amazing! Breakfast area was really cosy especially on a rainy morning Beautiful bathroom, spacious shower, luxurious shower gel, body lotion, shampoo & conditioner provided Excellent location, nice view (incredible at 5am for sunrise!!) Lobby/ lounge area really nice too, comfy sofas Staff professional & helpful Able to set wake up alarm on TV

Mini bar snacks which were not complimentary were very temptingly displayed and had to turn TV on to see prices

Amazing hotel directly next to the small harbor in KRS. Also the city is just 2 walking minutes away. The hotel is clean and rooms are great equipped. Overall nothing missed. If you come by car, the parking lot in the front is another 195,- NOK per 24h.

Amazing staff, comfortable bed, decent workspace, good breakfast, very clean, small but nicely designed bathroom.

Room was dimly lit despite plenty of lamps, and I could not find a possibility of increasing the light - but then I did not ask the staff about it either. Lack of space for luggage and no cupboard to put your clothes in. It is alright though, I guess, for a single night for a single person.

This was a beautiful hotel, very clean, looked neat and tidy with good staff that were happy to help. the room was clean, well laid out with a good bathroom. The location excellent apart from the shipping yard, very close to the beach, city, and not a far walk to any attractions, bus station or bars/food.

Very minor dislikes, the bed was not great quality with a thin soft mattress, however i am not sure if this is just normal for the region. the other negative was the fact it is right beside the shipping yard so there was some noise early in the morning of shipping containers being moved around. However, the view from my room over the shipping yard was actually really nice so it is hard to complain.

We were tired after the last ferry from Hirstals and after a long drive from Germany. The lady at night reception could be more precise and patient while explaining how to get to the hotel parking lots and payment. However, the gentleman who worked on the morning shift was very professional, thorough, and flexible and made us feel welcome (I had the same opinion about him during my previous stay on July 23.). Besides the unpleasant check-in, everything else was good.
