Staff charge for towels, and are not really helfull, they are very busy runing the pub. No bathroom, you have to use the mirror in the toilets. Showers were ok though.There are only 2 hair dryers to share with everyone. Kitchen well equiped with large tables. Good location still. close

bergen is a very nice place with very nice people. everything was very expensive in comparison to the uk so buy some vodka on the flight!! having two litres of vodka certainly helps you to meet people too! because of goverment policies nobody goes out until after 23:00 or maybe 00:00 to save...more bergen is a very nice place with very nice people. everything was very expensive in comparison to the uk so buy some vodka on the flight!! having two litres of vodka certainly helps you to meet people too! because of goverment policies nobody goes out until after 23:00 or maybe 00:00 to save money so everywhere is fairly quiet. very good fun once it starts though.close

Extremely expensive place. Just think about a €3 loaf of bread, or 23€ pack of rolling tobacco or €15 McDonalds menu. If you go there, bear in mind this will be even worse than you think.Supermarkets are the only way to go if you don't have a lot of money and there is a good chance...more Extremely expensive place.

Give a reservation a serious thought. We were there over a weekend and everything was booked out some 60 miles around. Now, why go there anyway?? Because it is a beautiful city and it is a great place to visit fjords and that, my friends, is really worth the financial trouble!!close

Rumor has it that it always rains in Bergen but I was lucky and had 2 back to back days of sunshine while I was there. It is a fairly small city and everything pretty much is within walking distance including the cable cars if the weather is nice. I would not spend more than 2 nights here because...more Rumor has it that it always rains in Bergen but I was lucky and had 2 back to back days of sunshine while I was there.

Top Rated Bergen Places to Stay
-
Marken Gjestehus 86%
The common room was always full of people who didn't even stay at the hostel, which didn't do the atmosphere any good. Rooms were pretty decent, and it's probably best value for money in Oslo. Silly though that they don't allow sleeping bags even if you bring a mattress and pillow cover.

Jacobs Apartments AS 83%
The apartment was double booked for my stay. As a result, I was forced to stay in a 16 bed dorm room, rather than an apartment. The toilets ran out of tp, the key cards didn't always work in the doors and the hostel did not seem very clean. The staff was very friendly, so perhaps the mishaps...

1This was a really nice hotel, the heated floors in the bathroom were a really touch! The only problem is its right in the heart of the city- so theres a bit of road noise. And from the directions, I thought it was opposite the train station- which it isn't, it wasn't a problem, just a bit...

Bergen YMCA Hostel 79%
We stayed in a 16 bed dorm (thought we were in for a 32 though so not so bad). It is in a great location, has a great common room and a guest kitchen, lockers etc. We would stay here again

Montana Youth Hostel 74%
Hostel too far from the center 20 min by bus (and take the bus every time is not cheapest). Everything is charging (using the plate of the kitchen, take lot of food in the morning, using Internet...), toilets doesn't work, some staff is agressive. But the rooms are clean and comfortable and...
