Avoid if you travel by car

Room, staff and breakfast were all good but you will get fine from the outside parking eventough you pay for it. Plus the chargers outside didn’t work so I had to pay for the garage aswell. Whole parking ended up costing 1000 NOK plus the time spent on writing a complaint to the parking firm. Staff was nice but unable to do anything to the parking situation, which was a bummer.

The hotel was lovely, modern and the staff were great. Daily room service was available if you want it. And a good range of options for breakfast buffet. Main downside is the beds were really uncomfortable- we booked a queen bed and got two single beds pushed together.

Helsfyr Hotel

Located in business district and a stadium nearby. Lack of parking spaces and if you do not find a parking spot, you have to drive else where to park. There was no floor towel for the bathroom which makes the floor wet and slippery. Breakfast spread is very good though. Lots of sittings and you dont have to worry about unable to find sitting spaces.
