Thon Hotel Kristiansund

Location by the water with wonderful viewpoint. Parking limited as we got in about 8:30, but we just got a spot. Elin at desk was lovely, helpful and friendly in this and all else. Our room?? was just a tad small for its class, but it was functionally fine. We had a view facing the waterfront with a picture perfect showing of the bridge. Bathroom was very nice. The shower was small, but otherwise fine. We got extra bottles of shampoo and conditioner, as they were too small for two people to share. Their service in bringing everything was extremely quick and friendly. The TV was fine with movies in English and good ones, too. The bed and bedding was the star of the show for me. They were both wonderfully comfortable, with the pillows divine – soft and fluffy – you just sink right in. It really was heaven for me. It had a big coach which we just briefly tried out. The side tables by the bed were small, but we have managed with even tiny ones and with none, at all. The room was quiet and the temperature was set centrally at 22C. My wife was cold. We have completely different internal thermostats. I wasn’t, but under the covers all was well, for both of us. With the drapes closed, the room was dark, the way it should be, There were outlets by the bed and at the desk, perfect for our myriad of devices. Breakfast was excellent, through and through. Eggs, both scrambled and sunny side up were great, so too, the potatoes, the warm salmon ( which I normally never have but they looked so good that I had to try ) pastries, pancakes ( particularly excellent, much better than most restaurants I have dined at and certainly surpasses all but the tiniest number of hotels at which I have stayed and that numbers probably 1000+ ), etc. I ate way more than I should have, but it was too good not to. Valeriia answered our call on the road and the next morning with competence and again warm friendliness The ladies who tended to breakfast Irmonte and Lydomilo were lovely, as well. It’s wonderful to deal with professionals who are not only competent, but sincerely devoted to seeing that their guests had a perfect experience. Simply, we had an excellent, relaxing stay. We will be back to Kristiansund, if for no other reason than to stay here again.

I would like to give special thanks to the team at Thon Hotel Kristiansund. I accidentally left my boots behind, and they quickly found them and arranged to send them to my final hotel in Norway. The boots were carefully packed in a shoebox and arrived in perfect condition. I know it must have taken them quite some time and effort to prepare and ship this, and I am truly grateful for their efficiency, care, and professionalism. Excellent service and highly recommended!

Very quiet location, although that also means it's not near anything! Fortunately, the free harbor ferry service has a stop that's just a five minute walk from the hotel. Our room was generously sized, with a large desk for working. Unfortunately, we found the power a bit flaky. For example, one device that typically takes 2 hours to charge required overnight. Breakfast service starts nice and early and offers a good range of options. We found most of the hot dishes to be lukewarm, even right at opening. Everything was clean and staff were quick to respond to our request for extra hangers.

Great place to stay in Kristiansund. Free parking and charge points available. Excellent breakfast with a fantastic view. Short walk to the free ferry service that will take you to the four islands of Kristiansund.

Have to say it is a wise investment of the thon hotel group to have this hotel here. Basically it is almost full during summer holiday. The room is not small but not big and everything is just on essential level. Breakfast is included and yes you find it expensive but it is worth for the scenery here

We arrived early and were told that there was a free ferry across the water to shops, cafes etc. There seemed to be plenty of parking at the hotel. Hotel is quite modern and looked to be fairly new. However staff seemed to lack experience and were poorly managed especially in the restaurant at breakfast. The room was OK but the detailed clean is missing - dust on soap dispenser the seating area in the restaurant was grubby with food splashed up the base of the seating. Towels really worn, however this seemed to be the case at every hotel we stayed in in Norway. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant - it was OK but really nothing special. Breakfast - reasonable range of food, service was poor - looked to be 2 unsupervised students mainly clearing tables and wiping any crumbs that were left on the table on to the chairs and floor. There was some lettuce on the floor that no one attempted to clean up, despite it being a slip hazard. We stayed in three Thon hotels in Norway and this was the worst.

It is located on the waterfront. Walking distance to a couple of restaurants. The dining room looks over the water. Nice views. Make sure there isn't an event on otherwise you'll be hearing a lot of noise.

Great breakfast. Fast to get to the city center using the free boat right next to the hotel. Rooms not awesome but nothing serious. I can recommend staying here.
