Quality Hotel Edvard Grieg

Heater did not work and typical bathroom amenities were not present. Breakfast was great. Dinner was disappointing. One dish and dessert for fixed price of NOK 31. ..."

Clarion Hotel Bergen Airport Terminal
"Staff was friendly and polite. The strike by hotel workers has impacted the service the hotel provided. Room was clean but small. The one issue we had was the smell of aircraft exhaust in the room and hallways whenever a jet was leaving the gates on that side of the terminal."
