The hotel has a lovely bar area to sit in and offers spacious rooms with large bathrooms. While not 100% soundproof due to the old building, the traffic noise may require earplugs. The service is friendly and professional but may sometimes lack efficiency. The location is ideal for travelers relying on train connections and is a short walk from the harbor and light railway stops. The dining experience offers a wide variety of delicious options, including scrumptious breakfast choices. Overall, the facilities are satisfactory with room for improvement.

The location is perfect for rail travel, being conveniently located next to the train station. The dining options were extensive and delicious, with a fantastic surprise in the variety and quality of food.

The hotel had a rather small room with no view, quite a shame on a sunny day in Bergen, but it was comfortable. The service was friendly and allowed us to leave our luggage at checkout. The location was fantastic, right across from the train station and close to various attractions. The dining experience was fantastic, with plenty of choices. The facilities were well-maintained.

The hotel offers rooms exactly as per the photographs but on the smaller side. While the rooms are a bit old, they were clean and comfortable. However, the bed was small, no extra pillows were provided, and there was no drink service at night, which was a bit strange. The service was attentive, albeit unsuccessful in fixing an issue, yet entertaining. Moving us to a better room the next day and granting a free late check-out were appreciated gestures. The location was perfect, right next to the train station, making travel convenient. The dining options were good with a variety of choices. Overall, the hotel is suitable for a short stay but may feel a bit dated and small for longer visits.

Staying at the hotel felt like a journey to a bygone era with beautiful and peaceful rooms, although a bit dated and small for three. The service was extremely kind and accommodating, even offering free late check-out and unlimited tea and coffee. The location couldn't be better, especially for train travelers, providing access to various amenities nearby, although a few rooms were noted to lack modern comforts. The dining experience was exceptional with a variety of local produce. The facilities were cozy and well-equipped.

The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms with opening windows, although lacking air conditioning or fans, making it slightly cramped for four guests but still pleasant. The staff are friendly and try their best to assist, however, at times are not very helpful especially during busy periods. The location is excellent, right next to the railway station and within walking distance to the city center. The dining experience is top-notch with a fantastic selection, particularly suitable for European dish lovers.

The hotel is conveniently located near the train station, making it easy to explore Bergen on foot. The staff was friendly and accommodating, offering us unlimited tea and coffee in the cozy bar area, which was a lifesaver during the Easter break when most shops were closed. The breakfast was a delightful spread of various dishes, although the rooms were a bit small and warm without much storage space.

The hotel rooms were spacious with a luxurious four-poster bed and provided all the facilities you would expect. The restaurant offered a diverse menu, and having a coffee machine in the bedroom was a delightful touch, creating a private ambiance. However, the service was inconsistent, with some staff being indifferent when handling reservations. The location was excellent for exploring the town and conveniently near the train station, offering a perfect place to unwind. The dining experience was a mix of buffet-style options with something for everyone but could improve by providing more in-room tea and coffee supplies. The facilities were well-kept and added to the overall experience.
