The Thon Hotel Bristol is an excellent hotel in a good location. We booked it through Norway in a Nutshell for its proximity to the train station on our arrival and to the Havila/Hurtigruten Terminal (Jekteviken) where we boarded Havila Cruises. Both were within walking distance. Our room was large with a comfortable bed and good shower. Breakfast was good and served on the 7th floor. The Bryggen, Fish Market and other attractions are close by. We went first in the evening and found those area far less crowded than the next day. A good feature for us was the hotel’s luggage service. Norway in a Nutshell shipped our bags from Oslo so we didn’t have to carry them on public transport. We found them waiting as promised at the front desk on arrival. But as we checked out we used the luggage room to hold our bags before we left to board our ship. There was ample space behind a locked door with convenient restroom. All in all a very good choice.

“Pre Kystruten stay”

Good location, friendly and helpful staff and we even had sunshine. Breakfast is very good (but also busy at peak times). We used the Egon restaurant next door for a meal in the evening. There is a left luggage room for after check out at noon.

Clean, centrally located hotel within walking distance of the main attractions and public transportation. Here are the pros and cons based on our experience. Pros: - The room was clean, quiet, and well equipped. - The staff were helpful and friendly. - Breakfast was delicious and fresh, with a good selection of hot and cold options. - Coffee, tea, still and sparkling water were available in the lobby, and there was also a small bar next to the reception. - Fast check-out. Cons: - Check-in took a very long time, apparently due to a system issue. Unfortunately, there was no communication about the delay. - The mattress was soft and seemed to sink in the middle. - There was no towel rack or hook near the shower. Overall, we had a pleasant stay.

“Overall a good option but if returning I may try a different hotel”

I chose a larger room style which was a good choice for us. The light blocking of the curtains was good for sleeping. The two single beds were okay but too close together.

I chose a larger room style which was a good choice for us. The light blocking of the curtains was good for sleeping. The two single beds were okay but too close together. The front desk staff were always friendly and helpful. The location was close to the center of the tourist area without being in the busy area. The train station was a 10 minute walk. There were steps within a single floor of the hotel which is not ideal with luggage. The breakfast was good, but the dining area was very crowded.
