Frommer's Review
Two highly regarded chain hotels compete for your patronage here. We give our nod to the Clarion Collection. Enjoying panoramic views of one of Norway's loveliest harbors, this hotel is the best in the area for an overnight stopover. Architecturally, it was inspired by the 1800s, the heyday of the sailing vessels that put Arendal on the map. The decor of each bedroom reflects the history of a different ship constructed in Norway, and each unit is named for a particular vessel. All of the accommodations are decorated in soothing pastels, with modern furnishings and midsize bathrooms with tub/showers. The hotel's restaurant, Tre Seil, is popular in the area during the summer. The dining facilities here are so excellent that you may want to patronize the hotel for food and drink even if you're not a guest. The location is a 2-minute walk south of the bus station.
