Det Hanseatiske Hotel

We found the hotel to be unsatisfactory in a few ways. Overall, it was quite dark throughout the interior; specifically in the guestroom, the halls and the dining room at breakfast. Unused hallways are full of what appears to be a mix of discarded materials, furniture not currently being used, and boxed items. We had a room with a double bed which was made up with what appeared to be two twin flat sheets on top of the mattress rather than a double/full sized fitted sheet. Overall, our stay was a disappointment, particularly considering what we paid to stay.

Lovely hotel with a great, cozy feel to the room. Full sized bathtub was a big plus. Wished we could have stayed longer!

I stayed here with my wife when we vacationed for our anniversary. Charming hotel in a historic part of Bergen. Centrally located and convenient to shops, dining, bars, fjord boat tour, hiking and other activities. Nicolas at the front desk was very friendly and super helpful when it came to answering all of our questions about the area. Would definitely stay here again.

Great customer service and really lovely and spacious room!

The breakfast buffet here was fabulous. I also enjoyed the large soaking tub in my room. The location was perfect. It was a bit noisy at night because there was a club across the street, but I had good earplugs. There were many tripping hazards in the hallways and in the room, so would not recommend for the elderly, but it is a historic building. I’d stay here again.

Nice enough hotel close to the Hurtigruten terminal, the railway station and the major areas of interest around Bergen.

It’s a bit quirky, not a level floor in the place but that’s its charm I suppose. Hotel is surrounded by bars and clubs expect some late night noise. Breakfast was not the best, if your not up early you may find your options limited as they didn’t seem keen on replenishing items.

a beautiful old building in an ideal location with friendly staff ,good breakfast and an excellent restaurant

Ascenseur en panne🙁

The hotel photos reflect some charm. Unfortunately, that is not the reality for this rather expensive ($651/two nights), but dingy hotel. 1) It is located on a small dead end street with an enormous retaining wall on one side. It rains a lot in Bergen and the street becomes a river in short order. 2) Hotel staff (and there are not many) can best be described as rather bored. When we first checked in no one was at the reception desk. He finally showed up and was uncertain about which room we had. He seemed so laissez faire that I asked to see the room before we hauled the luggage in. The hotel has an elevator, but when he took us to the floor where room was located it also had a rickety narrow open wooden staircase with about 20 stairs that you had to climb to reach your room. He told me people liked the room because it was quiet and had "original timbers". I asked to see another room. Unfortunately, it also had steps. I settled for the 3rd room which at least was not difficult to reach. It was dark and the furnishings reminded me of 1930's decor. Not replicas - the originals. 3) There was a small attractive bar on the ground floor, but unfortunately, a bartender never surfaced in the entire time we were there so we were not able to use it. 4) The breakfast was average - served in a drab dining room. I've been traveling in Sweden and Norway for over 40 years and have to say that this hotel may be historic, but it has little else to recommend it.
