Small room but we did just fine. Early ferry trip the next morning so we missed the breakfast, but did grab a coffee on the way out. Parking was excellent, could have been covered indoors also.

“Cosy, comfortable and clean room, lovely staff and great art work”

It's clear that this hotel used to be an office building and they have done an excellent job of fitting a hotel into it and doing as much as possible to disguise that fact. However the room I had was small, no swinging of cats could take place. Bearing in mind I chose a single room, although it had a double bed, I would say it was very much designed for just one person to occupy. The room itself was the width of the length of the bed, with the walls forming the head and foot of the bed, albeit with wood forming a headboard with built in night lights and a footboard. If there were two of you in the room, you would need to take it turns to use the floor space and the bathroom but again it was a single room... Of course this meant no storage space so the small desk and chair became my wardrobe. The lack of electrical sockets was more of a bugbear. Of the two sockets in the room (one under the desk, one higher up on the wall behind the TV) due to the close proximity of the one under the desk to the wall, my travel plug would not fit. So I had to unplug the TV and use that socket, fortunately I had brought a long enough cable (1m) that my phone reached the desk and could lay flat any shorter and my phone would have been dangling. Finally the hotel's location could be problematic for you if you are there to sightsee and don't have a hire car. It's on an industrial estate, which would be excellent and extremely convenient if you are visiting any of the businesses on the estate. If like me you are not, then it is a little out of the way and requires some logistical planning and bus timetable investigation. There is a wide road with a dedicated bus route a couple of minutes walk away and this will probably get you where you are going for about SEK5.75 for a day ticket, otherwise a taxi is your best bet. However be warned, these are very expensive, it cost me the equivalent of £15 for a 5 minute journey. If you have a hire car then you will be fine.
The first thing that strikes you about Smarthotel Forus is the decor, from the sweeping koi mural across the front of the hotel to the artwork painted on to the walls in the stairwells. Although akin to graffiti, it's painted with thought and there are some great pieces to be found if you explore. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was cosy, comfortable and clean. The price was reasonable given how expensive Norway is in general. The bathroom was a wet room and was clean. There was room enough for one to move about in freely, with a walk in shower and this had a door to prevent water drenching the entire bathroom. I was a little confused by the toilet tissue arrangement, as there was a toilet roll holder next to the toilet with no toilet roll. Instead, opposite the toilet was a toilet tissue dispenser, from which you could take individual toilet tissue portions i.e. the amount you would probably use anyway. It's not something I have seen outside of Norway and I have travelled to a lot of places. I'm guessing its a money/environmental saving development, however all that matters is that you get enough toilet paper, which you do.
