Fantastic, friendly & modern city centre Hotel

The hotel is perfectly located for exploring Kristiansand. The staff were professional and friendly throughout our stay. The rooms were spotless & comfortable. I loved the decor and the hotel had a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. The breakfast buffet, whilst being a little chaotic, was delicious. It was lovely being able to sit outside and enjoy the views across the square. The Sushi restaurant, attached to the restaurant was delicious. Would definitely stay again.

Breakfast is really good! Nice feeling to the hotel, close to the centre. Room was clean at first site, but then we found garbage under bed (beer caps, soda bottle, dirty napkins). Hotel offered us changing a room, but we had too much stuff and that would be more stress changing for one day.
