“A quaint and quiet 90s hotel rejuvenated to a high standard, perfect for visits to Kristiansand Zoo!”
Breakfast was great, a nice selection of both warm and cold foods. Friendly and helpful staff. Family friendly, a nice playroom downstairs for kids. Decent free WiFi. Good mini-fridge in the room. Perfectly adequate bathroom. We ate dinner at the hotel three times (buffet) and the price was fairly reasonable. Walking distance to Kristiansand Zoo (Dyreparken). A lot of families with kids at this hotel, so at night it was calm and quiet, no parties or nightclub.

“Nice hotel, great staff and excellent food.”
When we arrived we were met by a courteous receptionist who helped us with all our questions. When we got to our room, we noticed some technical issues and the lady at the reception immediately reacted by giving us a new room, plus a fantastic room upgrade. That room was simply marvellous! Breakfast was excellent, offering a great choice of food and condiments. Parking was easy, with plenty of spaces available - despite a large conference going on. The room was quiet and very clean. Location is also great, because it is easy to reach the city centre, or go shopping in the amazing Sørlandssenter, or visit the zoo with all it's attractions. We will be back! 🤗

“Gem near Kristiansand”
Largest breakfast buffet I have ever had. Good indoor play areas for the kids, also the outdoor heated pool. Thank you for your suite that allowed our family of 6 to all be in one room! Very clean, easy to find.
