Klosterhagen Hotel

I absolutely loved everything about this small intimate hotel ! The reception staff were delightful and always went out of their way to help . Eli and Ludvik were instrumental in helping us find a shop that could help us with attaining a SIM card for our phones . Lise was very helpful and I think she was the head of staff and had been there the longest . Always greeted us with a friendly hello and was very informative of things to do and places to see . My room , 304 was on the top floor , and although small was the perfect aerie to stay during my 3 nights . Two large skylights , one above the bed and one in the bathroom made my room bright and airy . At night I had a lovely view of the far off funicular . My room was very clean and very quiet . My friend was on the floor below me and she said her room was also clean and perfect for a 3 night stay . My bed was comfortable and cosy ! The breakfast selections would work for all dietary needs. I had perfect soft boiled eggs , salmon , lovely fresh baked bread , three kinds of fruit and yogurt , juice and hot chocolate to fend off my hunger pains until lunch time . When we returned in the evening we would sit in the downstairs sitting area on comfy chairs and a sofa and wind down from our exhausting walk discovering every nook and cranny of Bergen . We ate at a cafe very close to our hotel where we enjoyed both beer and wine to wind down . I chose this hotel because one of the reviews mentioned it was only a short walk to the Hurtigruten Terminal and indeed it was . On our day of departure it took us less then 10 minutes to roll our suitcases DOWNHILL to the terminal to catch our cruise. I can not say enough about this quaint , friendly hotel . I am 76 years old , and there are no elevators , but if you needed help to get your suitcases up the stairs the staff are eager to offer their assistance. I am physically fit so I happily carried my own . When I return to Bergen I will book early enough to ensure I can stay at the Klosterhagen Hotel . Mary Shepherd , Ontario , Canada
