Grand Terminus  

I chose this hotel because it is right next to the train station and because it has lots of character. The clerk upgraded me to a larger room. Buffet breakfast was fine.

Hotel could use a makeover if it can be done without loosing the character of this wonderful old establishment.

It's a great hotel and fantastic value for money - I guess you could say that parts could do with a bit of a re-furb - but to me, that's part of it's charm - with a sort of faded baronial thing going on. Particularly loved the breakfast which is amazing - I've never seen so much choice. (For some reason though, the cooked section was pretty cold - or are cold scrambled eggs a Norwegian thing??) The Whisky Bar is a wonderful place to relax or get on with some work - plug sockets behind voluminous sofas, with free tea and coffee on offer there all day. There was a free concert there on the Friday night that I was there & the band was pretty good. They had finished by about 11.00 though so no problem with noise. I had really noisy neighbours downstairs but fortunately the rooms/ceilings are solid enough that even their group singing (!) didn't keep me awake. I would definitely stay here again and strongly recommend it, although I've read on some of the other reviews that some rooms are definitely better than others, so it might be an idea to check first. All in all a great stay though.

Cold scrambled eggs !!

A wonderful hotel belonging to the Historical Hotels association - rooms are modern decorated in Norwegian style whilst the hotel itself is full of charm with its magnificent hallways, staircase and dining room . The dining room is magnificent with it's open fire, large lounge chairs (fit for kings and queens) and elegant antique furniture- you can sit at your leisure here and drink self service coffee, enjoy a drink from the Whisky bar, read, or enjoy a wonderful home cooked meal from the small but appetising menu. Staff are very helpful and friendly.

We arrived late but received a friendly welcome and a large clean and comfortable room. Bar was excellent and breakfast was good, realxed about staying later than 10am when breakfast finished. Hotel happy to store cases and arrange dry cleaning even though we were staying only one night and returning to pick up cases. Wilingness to suggest things to see in Bergen and point out routes etc Decor is charming if slightly quirky bit I suspect not out of character with rest of Norway. An enjoyable overnight.

Comfort of the room and it's very clean although not luxury.

Staff was excellent. Huge, very comfortable room. Great bar. Wonderful breakfast buffet. Super location.

Nothing. It was a great place to stay.

We liked the room, the view from the room, the breakfast, the room where the breakfast was served, the location of the hotel in the middle of Bergen

Location excellent, rooms spacious and comfortable, breakfast good, architecture and history interesting.

The location and comfortable and quiet room were great, especially after a night in a tiny room at the Sandviken, also outside the charming center of Bergen. Breakfast was also excellent. This was a relatively expensive choice for us - $350ish - but about average for expensive Norway. Was super quiet considering its location just next door to the train statin - couldn't have been more convenient.

Cost, but Norway is super expensive everywhere.

Next to train station.;very clean and beautiful old hotel. Breakfast was great. Would stay here again!!!!!!!!!

Room was very nice, great bathroom. Very comfortable, and we enjoyed the large breakfast buffet.

Men's sauna wasn't working . Bathroom needed a lip on the floor to keep water from going all over.

I liked everything! The room was great and clean, the building is really pretty (old-style) and the location is perfect. There was also free tea&coffee at the lobby (which is an amazing present in such an expensive city). The staff was amazing, helping, assisting and apoke perfect English!
