We had fully confirmed booking. We told reservation we are coming late. We arrived by train from Oslo at 23:00. Took a taxi to hotel. The guy in the front desk looked at the printout of the confirmation and said - sorry but no rooms available. He finally got us a room in another hotel but we lost more then... More

This hotel, facing the Bryggen, has an excellent location. I have stayed here a couple times in the past also, and have been very satisfied. The airport bus drops you off conveniently very close to the hotel and the Fisketorget. Delicious Norwegian buffet breakfast is served, with a view of the Fisketorget and Bryggen. The hotel staff was helpful, and... More

This is a nice hotel, some of the staff on the reception weren't very friendly, there was probably only about 2 that were unfortunately. The only complaint about the room was the very small bathroom on our 2nd stay there, made it very hard to move in there, especially cleaning our teeth in the basin. We had a lovely view... More

Upon check in into the Scandic Hotel the staff was friendly and helpful and a clean lobby. The view from the lobby is quite nice as it overlooks the harbor. The room was really small and the bed was not all that comfortable. Didn't use the room service but did eat breakfast in the hotel. The breakfast was nice, but... More

We arrived from England for my aunt's birthday. It was too early to check in as our rooms were being cleaned but were directed to the dining room for tea and coffee, which, given our early start, was welcome with a view over the fish market too. No-one minded us eating our picnic lunch we had brought with us! Our... More

Central and almost perfect location. Friendly and nice reception, and very good breakfast. Large selection of cold and warm. But rooms needs to be furbished. My room, with a perfect view of fish market, was old fashioned and not cosy. Bath room naked and dull. Will probably select another hotel during next visit.

The airport bus stops right in front of the hotel, and it's strategically located, with all attractions within walking distance. We have only booked us for one night, leaving the flexibility for fjord tours, however it is an extended winter and most tours are not open. Little did we know the town was full on with conferences and all the... More

I had a good deal staying here, and was issued a business room on a high floor. As a personal guest of the chain, I had high expectations. First of all, this is an absolutely supreme location in Bergen. It's right at the Fish Market, across from the famous Bryggen. Both airport shuttles stop basically at the door, and so... More
