Clarion Admiral: Mid-range hotel in great location    Check Rates
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • I stayed at Hotel Admiral in December 2006. Admiral is a large (210 guest rooms) mid-range hotel nicely located by the harbour in central Bergen - some of the rooms have absolutely perfect views of the harbour and the UNESCO World Heritage site of Bryggen, and if you fancy a swim in Vågen you could jump from some of the balconies straight into the sea...;o)

    We had a standard double / twin room, which was quite small and seemed rather dated. Two comfortable beds, two armchairs and a small table, plus a work desk - be aware that the "double" rooms have two beds pushed together. Amenities included a TV with a good selection of channels, and a minibar. The bathroom was quite small. (No bathtub, shower only)

    The room in itself was adequate, but the ventilation system didn't really seem to work *at all* - the air in our room was incredibly stuffy and damp...!

    The hotel offers free WiFi - the connection is reliable and fast, but you have to go down to the reception to get an access code (which only lasts 8 hours, then you have to go and get another one...)

    The buffet breakfast, served in restaurant Emily which has lovely views of the harbour, was very nice - a good selection of bread, rolls, crispbread and crackers, cereals, yoghurt, fruit, cheese and cold meats, and some local specialties such as various types of pickled herring...;op Also a limited choice of hot food (eggs, sausages, beans...).

    A double room at Hotel Admiral usually costs from ca 900 NOK - which isn't much cheaper than, say, Hotel Marin - which I think is a much better choice of hotel! (But if you *do* decide to stay here, ask for a room on the waterfront!!)

    Pretty much an average hotel with decent food. The location makes it unique.

    Unique view of the commings and goings in the harbour and the "bryggen" on the other side.

  • I forget, but I think it was around $120 a night, think that was a special deal. There was room for three of us.

    Very nice hotel. Newly built/remodeled with very nice clean rooms. Get a room with a view overlooking the water, nice!

    Clarion Admiral: Good hotel with great views, disastrous stay    Check Rates
  • Satisfaction:
  • We booked this hotel as a treat for the last day of our holiday around Bergen in summer 2003.

    In fairness, while very expensive, it has what is needed for a fabulous stay, even if not at great value.

    Our room was distinctive with a fantastic view over the harbour. The balcony was a bit scary for someone like me that is prone to vertigo, but great nonetheless.

    What let this hotel entirely down was the breakfast service. The restaurant was a total mess, no staff to take plates away that were piling on every table, no supply of clean dishes or drinks, it was total and utter chaos.

    It seemed like the whole staff had gone on strike on the day and we were left to fend for ourselves. Such a disaster from a 4 star hotel was nothing but shocking.

    It may well be that it was a one-off event and now the hotel is run flawlessly. Certainly I won't be returning there.

    Views, views and more views. Get a room
    on the waterfront.
