Enjoying a World Heritage-listed location, this intimate gem is perfectly poised to explore the sights of Bergen, Norway’s pretty second city. It’s set on the quayside in Bryggen, a Hanseatic wharf formed of twisting alleyways lined with multi-coloured wooden buildings. Dating back to the 14th century, it was an important trade hub but today it’s better known for its artist boutiques and intimate galleries. Back at the hotel, you’ll find this storied historicism complemented by contemporary fine design.

Eat

The hotel's restaurant serves an extensive and typical Scandinavian style buffet breakfast offering a selections of meats, cheese, fruits, pastries and yoghurts as well as bacon, beans and eggs.

In the afternoon, you can enjoy complimentary waffles and/or pastries/cake and coffee (specific times apply).

At the hotel each evening, guests are invited to a complimentary supper of salad, soup and a light main course. This is served between 18:00-20:00 and normally consists of one vegetarian option other dietary requirements can be limited. Do check locally. 

Please note, while a light supper is included in the price of the room, we do not consider this to be a full evening meal. If you're after something more substantial, there are a number of excellent restaurants nearby. There are no refunds for the supper should you decide to dine locally. Speak to your specialist for recommendations.

Sleep

Housed in 1920s neoclassicism, interiors are a considered, modern departure from the hotel’s stone façade. Across the 116 rooms, elegant splashes of colour add character to plush armchairs, courtyard views and dark wood writing tables. Flatscreen TVs and complimentary WiFi are welcome touches. Consider a Superior Double for king-size beds, larger rooms and excellent views; most look out over the quay onto the North Sea. You could also upgrade further to a Deluxe Double where in-room coffee makers and extra wide beds make for comfortable stays. Lastly, the Family Rooms offer accommodation for up to four guests.

Do

After a day’s sightseeing – don’t forget to take the funicular up Mt. Floyen for spectacular city views – take some time out with the hotel’s ‘Relaxation Corner’. Here, you’ll find a steam room, an area for socialising over a drink and that all-important Nordic sauna. And, for those who haven’t quite got enough exercise, there’s a compact gym equipped with a treadmill, rowing machine and stepper. Or, you could make use of the various jogging and walking trails that run through Bergen; ask at the reception for a map. End the day with a nightcap in the hotel bar.
