I had a lovely stay at Scandic Ornen! The hotel's location was perfect, just a short walk from the city center and conveniently near public transport options. The check-in and check-out processes were smooth, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. While the breakfast offered a decent variety, I did find some options a bit limited, especially for vegetarians. Overall, it was a great experience with minor aspects to be aware of! 😊

I recently stayed at Scandic Ornen and had a mixed experience. On the positive side, the breakfast was seriously impressive, offering a range of delicious options. The location was super convenient, close to transport and the city center, making it easy to explore. However, I did face some issues with the room preparation and some staff interactions, which dampened the overall vibe.

I had a pleasant stay at Scandic Ornen in Bergen. The hotel is modern, with clean and well-maintained rooms, though some can feel a bit cramped. The breakfast was a highlight, offering a wide variety of delicious options. However, the hotel is located a bit far from the main attractions, requiring a 15 to 20-minute walk to get to Bryggen, and there aren't many dining options nearby. Overall, it was a decent choice for my trip. 😊

My stay at Scandic Ornen was quite pleasant overall. The hotel had a modern feel with clean, spacious rooms, and the breakfast buffet was impressive, offering a variety of options. However, I found the lack of in-room safes and the strange decor in some areas a bit odd. Nevertheless, the friendly staff and convenient location made the experience worthwhile.

The hotel's location was fantastic, just a short five-minute walk from the train station and conveniently close to the bus station as well. This made exploring Bergen incredibly easy, as key attractions like the historic wharf and the art museums were within walking distance.

Dining

I was thoroughly impressed by the breakfast buffet. While the choice was very nice, with items like smoked salmon and fresh orange juice, I did notice that it could get quite crowded, necessitating some patience. A couple of minor drawbacks were lukewarm tea and the small cups provided.

Facilities

The hotel had great amenities, including a bar with a good selection of beverages on the 13th floor and solid gym facilities. However, I felt the absence of in-room safes and pay-per-view movie options was surprising for a hotel of this caliber.
