The hotel was located conventiently near both the train and the ferry terminal. When attempting to check in before 15:00 the desk clerk was extremely rude, interrupting and admonishing me for arriving early before I could even introduce myself. We ended up having to wait until 50 minutes after official check-in time to have access to our room. We booked the Presidential Suite and were very disappointed with it. It was old and dated, with dirty carpet, dusty surfaces and missing both the bathrobes and slippers that were listed as provided amenities. Also, it is very annoying to have a mini-bar but no prices.
There was no telephone in the room so the only way to contact the staff was by going to the front desk and waiting in line. The property is very dated and in serious need of a renovation. In addition, the staff could use a refresher course in customer courtesy.

My trip to Kristiansand was primarily to visit my son . The city is very nice during the summer and believe that there are more activities, but not much to do during the winter , not unless it’s for shopping 🛍

Nearby water park and zoo (Dreypark) was fantastic, we spent the whole day there. Ferry ride from Lillesand to Kristiansand on the M/B Oya was spectacular, highly recommended to see the coast and small villages nestled among the islands. Book ahead to make sure you get on. We took the ferry one way and then took the city bus back to pick up the cars in Lillesand. Many restaurants to choose from in the downtown area.

Norway is stunning and beautiful.
Norway is stunning and beautiful. Kristiansand is the jumping off point after arriving on the Ferry from Hirtshals, Denmark. The drive along the southern coast is absolutely amazing. I would love to go back.
I had a fabulous stay at Sjøgløtt Gjestgiveri. Especially very friendly and helpful staff, operational manager Hina, who went out her way to make my stay as pleasant as possible, adhering to any request of mine, asking if I need anything, great and prompt communication. Comfy bed. Tasty self-made waffles and jam, free use of kitchen.
Located in center of town, still on a quiet street, close to beach.
I highly recommend this small hotel with a homey atmosphere,
We liked the size of the appartment. It was very comfortable for a familiy with kids. 15 mins to the center with shops and restaurants. The location of the appartment is not especially attractive, no sea view or something but it is nice and quiet. The appartment is clean and everything is in order. The host gave all necessary stuff for the dish washer, washing machine, soap, toilet paper etc...
The room was very clean and modern. Bed was comfortable. Very central location.
The breakfast is quite reach in terms of selection and will get you going for the day.
If you need parking and don't mind walking a bit, you could use Gyldengården P-Hus which is a bit further away but cheaper than Torvet Parkeringhus which hotel would suggest you.
I visit the Scandic Bystranda since many years. It´s always great, comfy and clean. Sometimes, mostly in summer also for Kristiansand overprized. From the hotel it´s easy to walk into the city or harbor and to the restaurants. Breakfast is amazing and everybody will for sure find something. I really liek the hotel.
Nice hotel
Good family room with big bathroom, suitable for a family
Nice breakfast with plenty of choice
Good location near the aquatic park and the marina
No need of car to explore the city, possibility to walk to access interesting locations (Odderøya for example)
The hotel I located in the walking street of the City which makes it easy to get a round town. You have all the facilities needed, and there is also a good variety of restaurants. The connected restaurant to the Hotel is EGON, were also the breakfast is.
It was very convenient to everything. My husband was sick and needed to rest in the room. He was very comfortable and I could run out quickly to get what he needed.
I was given a complimentary take out breakfast because I had a very early departure. The staff ordered a taxi for me. The room was comfortable and clean.
