Hotel No13

Great location in the center of Bergen. Easily within walking distance to the harbor where most of the tourist shops are and the genuine Norwegian fish restaurants are ($$$). Good rooms, and great hospitality. The breakfast was well above expectations, and very friendly breakfast servers.

Walking distance from train station, light railway & bus station. Central to Bergen & al it has to offer. Staff were really helpful & accommodating. Breakfast was fantastic with fully cooked buffet or full continental. Totally recommend this Hotel for long or short stay.

First all the positive; the location is great! The hotel is close to everything in Bergen city center. The room itself was very clean except for some dust in the bathroom. The room I got, 504, was one of the biggest rooms/suites and was more the size of a flat! Very positive that I both got a two-seat bed- couch, a table and a chair and also a writing desk and a chair. The beds were super comfortable and the service of the staff was excellent! The breakfast was amazing, especially on Sunday with lots of different sweets and options also for the vegetarians. ||The negatives; At night I noticed that there was a electrical spark-noise, and at the last day I located the source of the noise to come from one of the big old lamps and the coffee machine. I found the electrical cord for the coffee machine and when I touched it it was VERY hot! I didn't feel all too safe about that so I unplugged for the next guests. I was told that the hotel was newly renovated but they probably didn't renovate the bigger rooms (the less-used over-all suites) and so the electrical sparking noises and the fact that the cord was very hot,did worry me, as in the terms of safety. Another thing: The room/suite 504 didn't have the thickest of walls and there was also a door leading to the room next door (which was locked at all times) where you could hear the sounds of the TV coming from the other room. As for the big windows at the end of the room, there were no handle on the windows, so not possible to open them. In addition there were also no air condition/fan that you could turn on and I can imagine that during the summer it can get really really hot! I tried to change the temperature of the room by turning the temperature-wheel, but I don't really think that helped too much. There should at least be an option to be able to open the windows. The view itself from the windows was leading straight into outdoor hallfways leading to apartments/student doorms(?), but the windows had plenty of curtains. Right below the room you could hear the noises of bottles and cans being tossed into the recycling container, but never tossed out at night or early morning, so it didn't bother me too much.The bathroom had a bathtub/shower, and the step/edge to get in and out of the bathtub was VERY high/steap and that can be dangerous if the floor is wet/slippery! And lastly I wish there were a bathroom fan you could turn on under the light-switch, to air out from the bathroom.

Very nice small hotel in an ideal location in the center of Bergen. Great daily breakfast, friendly staff and nice rooms. There's a parking garage about 2 blocks away for about 200 NOK per night (20 USD).

We had a great stay at this charming and incredibly friendly hotel. The staff are very helpful and were keen to ensure we had a fabulous stay. Our room was wonderful and the breakfast is very good indeed. Nothing was too much trouble. We would happily stay here again.

This hotel is very well situated and very good value. The staff are good and the selection at breakfast was excellent.|The room design didn’t work for us though although it looks good on arrival with a modern vibe. Sadly it is not very functional.|The window was frosted so we couldn’t see what the weather was like outside The lighting around the basin was hopelessly inadequate for shaving or contact lenses. It was basically one space with glass screens for the loo and another for the shower so the floor gets very wet. I doubt that the person who designed it has actually had to stay here!

The hotel location is superb. Couldn’t ask for more. 3 mins walk from the light rail to airport. It helps as I arrived late. Breakfast spread is good but the coffee machine is normal. If can alternate the dishes, if will be great for 3 nights stay. But I am happy to stay in the hotel again. Strongly recommended!

Very very nice hotel, we were there for 3 nights and we really enjoyed our stay with them.|They were very helpfull, and if you have a question they will do their best to help you.|The breakfast was also very good, and when we were not able to make it to breakfast because we had to leave early because of a tour, they arranged that in the morning there were breakfast packages at the reception waiting for us to take it with us.|The rooms were nice and clean, the beds were good. and nothing to complain about

Great location. Near major attractions, including boat tours, restaurants, the fish market, Bryggen, and (if you're walkers like us) hiking trails, but off a very wide walking thoroughfare so the lack of cars and lack of bars across the street made it much quieter, I suspect, than locations on narrow busy streets. (I should note we had a courtyard/interior view, which likely contributed to the quietness; an exterior room would likely be louder but the view would be better.) The decor and ambiance were nice. The place seemed to cater more toward adults, and I appreciated the lack of energetic talkative children. We slept very well at this place. Staff members were helpful and friendly and, like most places throughout the Nordic countries, they spoke fluent English. The shower is was a bit different than what I'm used to in the US but it is similar to what I've seen throughout the Nordic countries, so I can't complain. The breakfast was a big bonus. So much variety and the quality was great. Hats off to the chefs! I would stay here again without hesitation.

What a wonderful location if you are in Bergen. It is walkable from the train station and right on the plaza. It is close to the fish market, wharf, and Floibanen. The hotel in a word is adorable. Small but cozy. Customer service was fabulous all around. We walked around Bergen and came back and had a beer at the bar. Rooms are clean with some eclectic art. Just FUN! In the morning we had a great buffet breakfast accompanied by a delicious latte. Although we were only here a short 15 hours or so it was a wonderful stay and we would definitely return if we valer back to Bergen.

This hotel had an amazing lobby bar area and every one of the hotel staff were so kind and helpful. We also tried the very stocked gym down the street. Overall great location and experience

This hotel is right off a main square, offering fun people watching and slight noise. The noise did not bother me. The decor is very modern and fun, adding a nice boost of energy to the trip. Check out the website photos for what I mean. Note - the toilet is in a separate "closet" with a pocket door adding privacy. Hotel included hairdryer and minibar - I think the small bottles of wine/champagne were 150-170 NOK (~$20) Easy walk from the main train station - about 10 minutes and straight up the road. Also about a 3 minute walk to the flybussen (airport bus) pickup point. Easy walk to everything else touristy. The one big problem I had - the entry of the hotel looks just like a restaurant and all the signage refers to a restaurant. Tables in front and to the left, and on the right it looks like a bar top. When I first walked in, no one was behind the bar and there was one person delivering food to the tables. No one acknowledged me as I stood there with my large suitcase for several minutes. I actually walked out, thinking maybe I had come in a side entrance by mistake and the hotel lobby was a different place. I wandered for awhile before realizing there were no other entrances and made my way back. Although the name is obvious (HOTEL No13) I feel like they need to make it more clear that they don't have a traditional lobby. Restaurant food was good, but menu did not list all the ingredients. Not cheap - cost me about $220 (US Dollars) a night.
