Had a great stay. The Clarion is in a nice part of town with easy walking distance to dining and shopping. Rooms are quaint and comfortable. Staff was very friendly, and breakfast was very good.

Bed bugs in the hotel room
We found bed bugs in the first room (number 506). I went to the reception desk with video and they moved us to another room. Otherwise the hotel has a very central location in Kristiansand. The room was quite small and breakfast was good.

Cheap hotel trying to be a boutiqe hotel
Checked out after one day and moved to a neighbor hotel. The size of the family room was good. The room felt dirty, showering there the whole bathroom got wet. In general the hotel tries to be a "design hotel", but you so clearly feel how cheap all the design elements are.... Got a new hotel closer to the water and still enjoyed our stay in Kristiansand.

Great Location but as ahead about parking
Was an overnight stay with a family of 4 so hard to tell about the overall experience with such a short stay. One thing was that we needed to use the hotel parking lot. When we checked in we were told they were book. I was never told to book ahead of time and parking in another lot was a slight challenge as we were leaving for the airport at 4am.
James, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Parking was a little far away. I was not offered on site parking. We had an interior room. It would’ve been nice to have an exterior room. All that being said the room was lovely and the beds were very comfortable. It was nice to have a coffee maker in the room as well as a tea kettle. The buffet breakfast is outstanding probably the best we had in Norway.

Utmerket hotell.
Fint rom, og ypperlig reinhold. Aircondition virket ikke, så det ble litt varmere på rommet om natta en vi skulle ønske. Frokosten var rikholdig og deilig på alle måter.
