Not ideal, but not a deal breaker. Rooms were comfortable enough; what I would consider your normal "European" style room - very efficiently arranged to not waste space, but also not too much area to spread out your things, especially in the bathroom! Convenient location on the harbor in the heart of Bergen - great walking to most of what you would want to do in town/tourist attractions.

They also gave us extra supplies when needed. (FYI: they don't have conditioner nor lotions, but it didn't bother us: just in case this is important to you. They provide soap/shampoo combo and hand soap.) 3. Breakfast was perfect. Good selection. (It might get a little crowded but I'm sure you can take it up to your room, but we found a spot and we were just fine). 4. Room: clean, clean, clean. (We had the smaller room, but still very clean). We had a good view. 5. I recommend this hotel and the location is perfect!!!

This is a hotel I look forward to staying at again on my next trip to Bergen.

The airport hotel is about 10 mins walk from Bergen airport (when you see the information kiosk, take that exit. When you're outside facing the "Bergen?" Sign, turn right and walk straight. You cannot missed the yellow colored building with huge "Scandic" name on rooftop. Pizza offering and buffet at restaurant on first floor only. The place seems fancy so we decided to take a 20 mins walk to nearby shopping center where you can find a grocery market, artisanal bakery and coffee shop, bookstore and pharmacy. Thai takeaway is also there. How convenient! Room is clean, perfect for a night before continue on to next destination. Breakfast is included so will have to update when I have it tomorrow.

I was here for a weekend event onsite so it was very convenient to be able to get to the venue and my "temporary home" quickly and easily on foot after I come out of the Bergen airport. I was able to check into my room when I arrived shortly before noon 2 days ago, and had time to unpack and walk around the area before my event started that late afternoon. I am happy that the event organizer arranged our room rate to include full board, as the buffet meals at this hotel were delicious! I enjoyed all 3 meals everyday during my stay here, as the varieties everyday were very good. I had reindeer stew as part of my first night's dinner and it was excellent! I also enjoyed the halibut last night and the salmon this afternoon for lunch. The melons they had at every meal, in addition to the many dessert choices, were sweet and delicious. The room was basic like most Scandinavian hotels that I have stayed, but this one also has a nice couch which could be a nice lounging daybed to just relax in the room. I didn't get to stay in the room too much as I was at the event in one of the ballrooms most of the time from morning to evening, but I had good sleep and rest both nights during my stay. The ballroom is beautiful and the staff maintain the place nice and clean. Breakfast starts at 4am so I recommend anyone who has a early morning flight to catch to stay here, and event organizers expecting attendees coming from different parts of Norway or anywhere in the world to have their conference or event here.

If you're looking for space, let's just say, our two beds were so close, you could stretch your hands out and poke the other person. Like many European hotels, there isn't A/C and unfortunately, the windows don't open either... As for the shower, good luck keeping the water from splashing everywhere. Using a bathmat was pointless, as it was completely soaked by the end of my shower. Good news: We enjoyed the complimentary breakfast buffet, which offered a nice variety of options. TLDR: Boutique hotel in the perfect location, but location and breakfast are the best parts of the stay here.

The Fish Market is a 10 minute walk with Bryggen at 15 minutes. Both of our Tour meeting points were in the Bryggen area so that worked out well. Our triple room was tight but had a good size bathroom. I was surprised they had carpet vs wood flooring. We liked the room had plenty of outlets throughout. Beds were comfortable.

Another highlight was the Breakfast-free-amazing spread. Full Bar and restaurant along with self serve Coffee Bar were available. Check-in was quick and seamless. Paulo took great care of us.

We actually wanted to book an apartment but this place caught our eye, as it is literally a stone's throw from Bergen Train Station (which is the final stop!). I would say, I walked literally 1.5 mins to get from the station to the hotel! You can even see the train station after stepping out from the lobby doors - it is THAT near! Upon stepping in, I was pleasantly surprised at how warm the interior was, with very well insulated doors (two layers with a wind catcher). During my 3 night stay here, I even walked down to the lobby bar for coffee/tea in my PJs without any jacket on and I felt comfortable. The decor of the lobby was very modern, urban and yet homely all at the same time. We were very tired from our 12 hour scenic train ride from Oslo and the friendliness and smiles from the check-in lady sure made our night so much better! It is the norm for hotels in Norway not to have any coffee/tea/cups/water kettle in the room but for this hotel, they even provided free-flow of coffee, tea and hot water at their lobby cum bar! Hot water was very important to me as I am used to drinking a hot cup of tea before bed, plus it was crucial to making cup noodles - yes we were craving cup noodles after 3 weeks in Norway! Love the long wooden table in the middle of the lobby where guests would drink coffee/tea, sit and read the papers or do the crosswords in PJs (like me). The room was comfortable, and bigger then most hotels, good enough for us with two mid-sized luggage. The best part of the room, besides its cleanliness, was the shower and shampoo gel! It has a woody scent with complimenting earth notes that was reminiscent of the signature Aesop scent! Zander K was proud of their own collection that they even sold some of their shower gel at the lobby; I was sorely tempted to buy but I restrained myself - bath times became that much more relaxing! Our room rate came with breakfast included and for breakfast, they served the usual widespread of bread, yoghurt, eggs (hard-boiled and scrambled), ham, bacon, all kinds of cold cuts, a very huge selection of cereals/toppings, muesli, salmon, tuna, baked cod fish etc. We were pretty sad to leave Zander K but if we were to go back to Bergen, we would definitely stay here again! Taking the train in and out of Bergen while staying here was really very convenient and easy!

The morning breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of spectacular food choices that one could safely start the day without thinking of the next break.

The room was lovey and very comfortable with a soaring ceiling, tall windows and expansive bathroom. We had a large sitting area with a couch and other furniture and being on the 2nd (European 1st floor) meant we could just use the stairs for our coming and going. Housed in a former bank, the lobby restaurant had an impressive feel and the central location-just a short walk to key sites, the ferry, and restaurants worked well for us. In general it has what you'd expect from a high end luxury boutique including prices. The disappointment was the restaurant and hotel bar. On our first night we arrived late from the ferry and stopped in to the tiny lobby bar for a drink. The whiskey sour from their bar men tasted like unsweetened lemonade and was almost in drinkable. On another night after a long day, we dined in the French Bistro themed restaurant and had an underwhelming meal. Not what one expects at this level of establishment. Bottom line-a great place to stay, just skip the hotel bar and restaurant.
