Charged double payment

The Hotel itself was good but the service was not. Breakfast disappointing. Major issue was that they required us to pay in full upon arrival even though we had booked and pre-paid in full. So we had to pay twice! Contacted hotels.com who promptly resolved the issue and reimbursed our payment through them. No explanation or excuse from Hotel. Hotels.com - 10/10 Risør Hotel 1/10

Topp

Risør Hotel er koselig og personalet hyggelig. De godtar også hund. Vi fikk et svalt rom med uteplass, senga var utrolig komfotabel med store gode puter. Badet var rent og frokosten meget god. Vi kommer tilbake helt sikkert.

Helt ok, men litt å klage på allikevel

Ok opphold, men det var iskaldt på rommet og frokosten var ikke bra. Appelsinjuicen på tappekranen var dårlig og smørpakningene var harsknet og bar preg av å ha vært ut og inn av kjøla flere ganger, men datoen var innenfor. Veldig flott rom og god seng. Det var et moderne spyle toalett på badet, men det virket dog ikke…. Folkene som jobbet der var vennlige og imøtekommende. Kommer nok tilbake når det er sesong…
