Reviews
Breakfast is one of the best!
But, all in all probably the best hotel in arendal.
Rent snyggt rum mycket trevlig personal. God frukost med hälsosamma alternativ. Gick att få nystekt omelett, mycket trevligt!
Super, supert!!!
Nice hotel, not a lot to do in the town.
Great location with an exceptional view of the harbour. Included breakfast was exceptional - best we’ve experienced anywhere. Staff were very friendly and helpful. While Arendahl is a little away from the more common Norwegian tourist spots, I wouldn’t hesitate to return just because of our positive experience there.
