Spent two nights here. First was peaceful, second was horrible due to loud music from a nearby pub. They were open till 3 at night, and I could not sleep. Avoid room 224 as it faces the backyard. Other than that the location is good, staff is friendly and breakfast is good, even for Norwegian standards, which are high anyway.... More

We stayed here for a couple nights before heading off on a Hurtigruten trip. The room we had we right on the corner at the top, quite a weird shape, but was very comfortable. The round bed was huge and really comfy! As has been mentioned by a lot of others, the breakfast is superb. A massive range of meats,... More

The breakfast buffet is absolutely outstanding, so many choices and deliciously prepared. Love the smoked salmon, smoked herring and the herring in different sauces, oh did I mention the egg station? Location cannot be any better, close to everything, train station, old town and airport shuttle. Rooms are on the small side and the doors and hallway make you feel... More

We picked the Rica Bergen after reading many reviews on Bergen hotels. The breakfast as many reviewers had said is fantastic and offers something for everyone, the chefs smoothies are a must try! The free tea and coffee throughout the day was also a nice touch, especially on a cold rainy day in Bergen. The room we stayed in was... More

Good rate, easy to find. Room needed a new mattress. Could feel the springs in the middle. Neighbors were noisy. Overall we were happy with the room.

Have to agree with the other reviews, the breakfast is a standout. Rooms are very nice, large by city standards. Very nice bathroom with toiletries! Rooms on the A side have no view - not sure about the B side but just step out the front door and the views are everywere. We had a superior room and it was... More

Stayed here for two nights. We got a room at the top floor, offering a great view over Bergen from our roof window. The service is nothing to write home about though, and we had to ask several times to get fresh towels and soap in our room. The maid also forgot to lock our room after finishing housekeeping. This... More

I stayed here for one night and perhaps stayed at one of the smallest hotel rooms I have ever seen. TV wasn't working but they fixed it for me... very close to nice restaurants and shops... a good walking distance to the funicular... there was a nice bar just very near the area. Interiors were clean and modern... small but... More

Stayed 2 nights before Hurtigruten trip. Close to shopping precinct, museums, port (short easy walk). Take wet weather gear as rained whole time. Hotel is an easy 5 minute walk from train station, beside park and lake. Breakfast good selections and plenty. Staff helpful. No dining facilities however good places nearby such as "eats" (round the corner-discount if show room... More

This hotel was not only nicely located but had, hands down, the very best breakfast selection in a two-week stay in Norway. Wireless internet was sufficiently fast for me to Skype with family members in the US.
