This hotel offers a clean and comfortable stay with friendly staff, making it a pleasant experience overall. While the location is convenient being close to the train station, it does feel a bit industrial and isn't the most picturesque. The dining options were great, but I expected a bit more from breakfast. Overall, a decent value for money if you're looking for something functional.

The hotel offers clean and well-decorated rooms, but I found the noise from trains and other guests quite bothersome. The staff was friendly and prompt to assist. While it’s conveniently located near the center of Drammen, the surrounding area felt somewhat industrial and desolate. Overall, it feels like a budget-friendly option; just don’t expect luxurious amenities.

The hotel has a convenient location, close to the train station and city center, making it easy to get around. The rooms are mostly comfortable, but I did experience some street noise at night. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the dining options were delightful, especially the variety of seafood. However, the location could improve as it’s surrounded by a motorway and busy roads, which detracted from the overall experience.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and while it has a charming character with spacious rooms and a great location near the main square in Drammen, it feels a bit outdated and could use some refurbishing, especially in the bathrooms.

This hotel has a great location, close to the center of Drammen and a lovely walk along the water. The rooms are quite modern but could definitely benefit from some upgrades.
