The hotel offers simple but very comfortable rooms that are extremely clean, with wooden floors, nice firm bedding, and a clean bathroom. The staff is friendly, kind, nice, and polite, offering services like dry cleaning, welcome drinks, and pet amenities. The location is excellent, right in the heart of Bergen near the Bryggen and great restaurants. The dining experience is decent, and the facilities are well-kept.

Staying at Bryggen was a delightful experience overall. The rooms were beautifully decorated and quite spacious, offering a lovely view and a central location near downtown attractions. However, the rooms faced the street rather than the harbor. The service was lacking in enthusiasm and attention to detail, missing key elements for a true 4-star experience. On the upside, the location was unbeatable, with easy access to Bergen's central station and popular sights. The dining experience was exceptional, offering a wide variety of delicious options, especially in these restricted times. While the facilities were satisfactory, some improvements could enhance the overall guest experience.

The hotel offers spacious rooms perfect for families with small children, boasting a great view. Although my room was a little larger than the first one, I found it excellent for my needs. The location is spectacular, just a two-second stroll from the Bryggen UNESCO site and close to various attractions. The dining experience was fantastic, especially the waffles, worth the wait. However, the limited dining options were a downside. The service was very helpful overall, though a bit blunt at times. The facility was well-equipped, offering dry cleaning services and pet amenities.

The hotel has a fabulous view overlooking the harbor, with spacious and bright rooms that need a little renovation. The location is excellent, right by the Bryggen. Service is extremely helpful, although some mattresses coverings could use an update. The dining experience was phenomenal, but it could benefit from renovations. Overall, a well-furnished hotel in a wonderful location.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, though big enough and with a great breakfast, felt a bit cold and noisy due to the nearby fan system. The service, however, was top-notch, with very helpful and welcoming staff ready to assist with any request. The location was a main highlight, being perfect for exploring Bryggen and having easy access to transportation options. Dining was excellent, with a wide selection of food, but it seemed better to start 30 minutes early. Despite some drawbacks, the experience was overall positive and convenient.
