10/10 Exceptional

Property was under renovation while I was there but still an excellent stay. And what could be better than right next door to a zoo, an adventure park, and a singing pirate ship that goes right past your room if you get one overlooking the water! I had a great time. The breakfast is also wonderful!

I had a lovely overnight stay before going to the airport. The desk arranged a taxi for me and everything about the service at the desk and the hotel overall was 10/10 I will be recommending this hotel to all my friends. Thank you all.

Nice clean room

Our two nights was fantastic even we received by an impatient personel in reception :) Breakfast was good but we need to pay additional to the expensive room price The place is ideal for those who gonna visit dyreparken and badeland since its only beside the hotel

Helt ok standard men ikke noe mer.

Litt rart bad da det ble oversvømt ved dusjing. Flate oppbrukte fjærputer burde vert fiberputer grunnet allergi. Sengen var ok men ikke opptimal.

Gjennomsnittlig norsk = dyrt og litt kjipt

Mye penger for lite rom uten frokost eller annet inkludert. Veldig hyggelig personale, men litt kjipt at man ikke får mer for pengene.
1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Worst hotel I have ever stayed at. So many kids were running, spanking doors and screaming. w We could hear reception and the kitchen and everything outside, including what appeared to be a loading dock. People were smoking right outside so we had to close our window but because there was no temperature control we slept with ice. Iasked a our the noise abd they saix there is nothing they can do until 11pm when quiet hours started. The kitchen/ loading dock stayed at 6 am leaving little time to sleep. We used noise canceling headphones but they barely took the edge off the noise At a minimum they should not rent the room we were in but guessing since they didn't offer to move us the entire hotel needs better sound proofing.

Rommet var fryktelig varmt selv med vinduet oppe. Det var ikke veldig rent på gulvet

Herlig frokost og meget barnevennlig hotell! Underkøya i 140 seng var noe liten i forhold til hva vi trodde og rommet var noe lite for 2 barn og 2 voksne

10/10 Exceptional

This is my second time staying at this hotel. The convenience to Dyreparken cannot be beat! We had all of our breakfasts and dinners at the hotel and were not disappointed. The table agreed that that their coffee machine is great! We even had a emergency happen while at the hotel with our two year old getting injured while at the hotel (not the hotel's fault, just an accident) and the hotel staff was amazing! Many people on staff jumped in to help along the way, and two of them even offered to drive me and my son to the emergency room since my husband was away from the hotel at the time. When we got back to the hotel after my son getting a few stitches the dinner staff checked in on us again and made sure everything was okay. I cannot say enough nice things about the staff! Regarding the rooms, they have everything you need. The bunkbed rooms are more fun because they are more themed, but we had no issues with cleanliness, or anything like that. Would definitely recommend staying here, and will be back again again some time in the future.

Flott beliggenhet, rom mangler lagringsmuligheter

Perfekt beliggenhet for dyreparken, lite rom uten muligheter til å legge fra seg klær, bare noen få knagger for jakker. Fint og rent og god frokost.

Bra

Svært praktisk ifm Dyreparken. Fint og reint hotel. God seng gode puter. Hadde vært fint med mer oppbevarings muligheter, spesielt på bad. Og ev svaber til få vekk vann fra gulv.

Dyreparken

Personalet var veldig hyggelige og serviceminded. Eneste minuset var at litt for mange attraksjoner var stengt. Uansett, vi fikk sett alle dyrene!

Anbefaler oppgradering til rom med terrasse

Selve hotellet, servicen, og frokostbuffé var glimrende. Rommet var veldig enkelt, pluss for vannkoker og tv på rommet. Men vi så rett inn til naboene fra vinduet, så vi valgte å trekke for gardinene under hele oppholdet. Minus for utsikt/innsikt og mye støy/lyder fra gjestene rundt oss.

Mange flotte figurer rundt på hotellet

Helt ok men,,,

Syns det er dårlig at frokost ikke er inkludert. Den skulle de ha 300 kr for nesten i tillegg!
Glenn, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Vi var sultne, og oppdaget at restauranten ikke åpnet før 17:30, kun Pizza i baren til 350kr og den var ikke spesielt god! Tok den med til rommet da det var ukoselig å sitte i barområde! Sovesofa ikke god som seng, dobbeltsengen derimot var veldig god! Litt skuffet, men totalt en ok opplevelse!
Nina, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fint rom. Vi hadde vindu ut til en felles terasse så det var noen gang vanskelig å få luftet skikkelig og så savnet vi en stol å sitte i på rommet. Ellers var det bra. Veldig hyggelige ansatte.
