Klosterhagen Hotell

The staff was wonderful. Friendly, funny, and always quick to find a solution. The breakfast was okay. Why the scrambled eggs were cold in the refrigerator and not kept warm is a mystery. Perhaps a Norwegian specialty that I didn't appreciate. The waffles served with coffee in the afternoon were absolutely wonderful. Our room was too small for the price, and the furnishings weren't very high quality. Unfortunately, both people couldn't sit at the same time. The internet in the room was very shaky and unstable. We were therefore allowed to use the conference room for a conference call. The unstable internet also had a negative impact on the TV. The bathroom was okay. However, there was one small mirror missing, and the short shower screen constantly flooded the bathroom. Two of the four electrical outlets also didn't work. Instead, we were given a power strip at the reception. We still felt comfortable, but the price we paid was unreasonable, even by Norwegian standards. But still, the staff was wonderful.

We spent two nights following a Scandinavian cruise which ended in Bergen. Located a bit off the beaten path, the hotel is situated in a largely, residential area.|Upon our arrival, we were warmly welcomed and able to store our luggage as our room was not yet ready. We returned around 7pm and checked in quickly. Our assigned room was tiny, smaller than our cabin on the cruise ship which we just vacated. There was no room, nor a nearby electrical outlet for my husband’s CPAP machine. Returning to the front desk, we were reassigned a room on the third floor. Staff helped us move our luggage. |I should have paid more attention to the hotel’s description which clearly stated that there was no elevator. Having knee issues, I found navigating the stairs difficult. But again – this is on me.|Our room on the third floor was slightly larger, however, the roof slanted and my husband regularly hit his head. Also, the bed was flush against the wall, hence only one of us could leave the bed without crawling over the other.|The bathroom was a decent size but poorly designed. The shower only had a small screen/wall and although we were careful, a large portion was wet after a shower. The room also had a kettle and one could make coffee or tea.|Breakfast was plentiful and I particularly enjoyed the fresh, home baked bread.|The hotel was located about a kilometer from the train station and there were numerous restaurants in the area. Be advised it is all uphill to return to the hotel, makes from some great exercise after a meal.|Although the price was right, I cannot recommend this hotel for anyone with mobility issues.

Highly recommend this place. Some of the cheaper rooms are small, and there's no ac, but lots of light, friendly staff, great breakfast, waffles between 5 and 8pm. Now it's a walk up a hill but nice to be out of the tourist area and close to playgrounds and the swimming pool. There is also a back patio with outdoor seating.

The bed was pretty good . The hotel is very clean. The room was on the small side. There is no elevator. The buffet breakfast was good and interesting. Staff was extremely helpful. The hotel was in easy walking distance of the old town center through the fishmarket bridge. The hotel exists to give young people an intern type of working experience and thus has a social purpose.

All three ladies at the reception whom I met during my stay were wonderful and helpful every step of the way. The hotel was clean, well-maintained, and had everything I needed. I had also requested a room on the third floor with a city view, and I was very happy to receive exactly that – thank you so much! 🙏 I highly recommend this place and truly hope to return someday.

This is a gem! Off the beaten track of Bryggen Bergen but close enough. If you can walk 15 minutes you’ll be at the fish market. Great cafe next door, Lovetann, and the aquarium and park just down the road. Close to cruise harbor if you can navigate bricked walks and streets. Lovely staff. Very clean.

An exceptional find. Comfortable rooms, brilliant service and a wonderful location. Good breakfasts (Trym worked so hard looking after us). There's no lift, but it is a 19th C house, so that is what you expect. Good value too.

Beautiful situated hotel, nice room with a good bed and bathroom. Excellent breakfast and kind and helpful personal. The location is beautiful in an old part of Bergen, just minutes away from the center.

Beautiful place for its price. The food is good. The rooms are amazing of all the cheap hotels. The cervice is kind, and they can speak English. That small amount do.

I stayed 3 nights in this hotel with my daughter for out first trip in Bergen . Lovely hotel ,very clean . Staff very helpfull and kindless .. Our room was too small for two . No space for the luggage ! But beautiful bathroom . Very difficult for me to sleep 3 windows and 2 blinds curtains only !!!

Decided to go to Bergen with my mum for May bank holiday and found this little restaurant online. Lovely little hotel, very clean with extremely friendly staff. Brekkie was included - typical scandinavian brekkie: salmon, cured meats, muesli, smoothies. Very tasty and great start to the day! The room we had was tiny, literallt space for a double bed, tiny wardrobe and tiny table - but for three days of exploring the city what more do you want? Bathroom on the other hand was suprisingly big! Absolutely beautiful, with wide mirrors and black tiles, great shower! Definitely recommend this hotel for anyone looking for nice for decently priced hotel in Bergen

This was my home away from home during a few nights in Bergen during the summer of 2012. I was traveling with two friends and part of the reason we chose this hotel was the availability of a triple room at a reasonable price. Bergen is on the smaller size and easy to walk around. This hotel is located in a quieter area, which seemed more residential. It was a few minutes walk to the harbor, though on return it is an uphill walk. Our room was on the top floor and it had a skylight which provided a ton of natural light. The staff offered to carry our bags up the stairs as there was no elevator/lift. The skylight had a shade so we could block out the light when we were sleeping at night. Compared to the size of the room, the bathroom was massive. I think we could have done with a smaller bathroom and larger sleeping area. The room worked out just fine, but the amount of space dedicated to the bathroom was generous. While I normally don't focus on a hotel's breakfast, it's really impossible not to do so. One of the most unbelievable breakfast displays I have ever encountered. We were sincerely impressed by the choices available each morning. The breakfast room was located on the main floor, just to the right of the reception area. There was a counter with assorted cured meats, fish, pâtés, cheeses, cereals/granola, breads, and jellies, mostly with a Norwegian theme. All of the breakfast items were labeled. Everything was locally sourced. There were also assorted juices and teas available in addition to coffee. The staff did a wonderful job keeping the area well-stocked and clean. Everyone in my group loved the breakfast and thought it was one of the highlights of the hotel. If you go on their website, you can read about the hotel's mission as a work training program for those transitioning back into the workforce. It's wonderful to be able to support such efforts and receive kind service in return. If I return to Bergen, I would stay here again in a minute. I loved being off the beaten path in the city, as it forces you to get out and explore.

Update: I had posted a few days ago that I give this hotel a 4.5 stars (but had to list it with 4). But I've change it to 5 stars because, even though the breakfast isn't stellar (it's actually not that bad; it doesn't help that I don't eat meat or eggs), the extraordinary kindness of the staff and the softness of the sheets and towels more than makes up for this. I definitely recommend this place!!

As everyone notes, there's a terrific breakfast (espresso machine with unlimited shots!), with clean accommodations, if a little on the small side generally. Staff friendly and helpful. Has more of a homey, informal feel than a commercial hotel, and prices are reasonable. Good location, there aren't really any bad locations in Bergen. Downsides: there's free Wi-Fi, but it's terrible. In the evening my speed test showed 387KB/S, and their login system logs you out after a short period of time or when you switch off your device no matter what you try. If you're vegetarian, go look up Pygmalion and eat there while you're in town.

This hotel is close enough to everything without being in the city center. The staff is so friendly and nice and willing to help. They also have a lovely breakfast spread, cured and smoked meats and fish, breads, yogurt and cereal. Also, from 4 pm - 10 pm every night waffles. Which might I add are a lovely snack, not too sweet but just right for when we get back from being out. I have found with all the Scandinavian countries the bathrooms are quite small as well as the bedroom. And last night someone tried to swipe their card and come in my room. Maybe the room numbers need to be better displayed. For me the chrome cast isn't great because I'd rather not stream from my phone but watch what locals do. Overall I am happy. Minus the towel cart that sits at the end of the hall in the open. And this strange bump and rash I got from something unknown at this point. So sensitive skin please be aware. Not sure what it could be at all so I can't blame anything at this point.
