A family-owned boutique hotel with real heritage, exceptional beds, and one of Norway's best hotel breakfasts, right in the centre of Bergen. A small exhibition about the composer's life sits on the lower level. Live piano at breakfast.
A brand-new design hotel with a Michelin-starred sushi restaurant on a great Bergen street. The aesthetic is Japandi: Scandinavian minimalism crossed with Japanese wabi-sabi. Light wood, neutral tones, low-profile furniture. Spa opened in January 2025.
A beautifully converted 1862 stock exchange at the absolute dead center of Bergen, with one of Norway's best hotel breakfast rooms. Pinstriped wallpaper, herringbone parquet, houndstooth upholstery. Details that nod to the financiers who once worked these floors without hitting you over the head.
125 years old. Rooms are individually decorated with hand-picked art, and the lobby bar, Bar Boman, houses one of the country's largest private collections of Edvard Munch prints. But the real draw is Theatercaféen, the grand Viennese-style restaurant on the ground floor, with its high ceilings and mirrored walls. It's been the place in Oslo where actors, politicians, and locals meet for over a century. Nationaltheateret station is 100 metres from the front door.
A restored 1930s power station with original Art Deco tilework, a rooftop pool overlooking the city, and seven restaurants under one roof. There's nothing else in Oslo like this. If you want a hotel that makes you cancel your afternoon plans because you'd rather stay in, this is it.
Built in the former headquarters of the Norwegian America Line, the company that shipped thousands of emigrants to the US in the early 1900s. More character than anything else in this part of Oslo. The cocktail bar sits in the old booking hall where passengers once collected their tickets, all dark wood and low lighting. Two-minute walk from the airport train platform.
