Thon Hotel Orion

Liked everything. Reception - very welcoming attentive staff who took time to say hello and bye each time I went in/out hotel. Restaurant - really wide range of choice and quality of food. outstanding. no cutting corners here. also good range of drinks. Staff also very attentive. I liked that even for those taking a later breakfast at 9am, there was the same selection of fresh and warm food as for earlier, so the chef kept up great service right to 9.30. Lounge - comfortable inviting area to relax and have a nice (free) coffee. Room - I was in 954. Comfy bed, kettle etc available (for those who like milk in their hot drinks, bring your own as there was only powdered milk). also a little cold fridge area and good safe. Walk-in shower was fab. View over back of hotel to park, mountain, fjord, car park (see pic). Hotel also offers packed lunch at 105NOK. Location - just at the end of Bryggen so great location. 10 mins max walk to harbour. little supermarket is just behind hotel to the right next to church for essentials. I also like that for solo travellers, the hotel doesn’t add on a premium penalty for room bookings! Will defo be back!

The location is great. It is just a 5 minutes walk to the centre of town and to all the tourist attractions - cable car, fish market, fjord cruises, shopping and good restaurants etc. The breakfast was great. There were cold and hot dishes with eggs prepared in many ways - omelette, scrambled, sunny side, well done and boiled. There were great cooked beans, tomatoes, bacon, sausages and pate too.

Brilliant experience- hotel was really lovely! Staff were very friendly and helpful. Had a room on the 10th floor overlooking the harbour so the views were fabulous! Breakfast was one of the best i've had in any hotel - selection of hot, cold, baked and cereal type options with daily smoothies and at the weekend a selection of treats brought round on a trolley. Location was great - a short walk into the centre snd preferable as less noisy. Would definitely stay again!

The staff were helpful from the moment I walked in. Always there to answer questions. The breakfast! Oh my days! The options were vast and tasty. I stay almost a week and still was not able to try everything! Blew my mind! Hot options, cereal options, fruit, baked goods I could go on! You could customise to till your hearts content! Definitely not your bog standard breakfast! Room was lovely and clean, shower perfect pressure for after a long day out in the elements. Bed was so comfortable! I stayed alone but loved that instead of one double duvet they gave two singles so if you are travelling as two then no fighting over the covers.
