Frommer's Review
Naturally, the hotel is imbued with a maritime theme as befits its location at Bryggen along the waterfront, with several of its bedrooms opening onto views of the harbor and the famous fish market. This is one of the better first-class hotels in town, rising seven floors in a streamlined format on a steep hillside in a brown-brick building. Standard doubles are available, but if you're willing to pay more, you'll get a superior double with more space and upgraded amenities. Each room is tastefully and comfortably furnished in a stylish Nordic modern with immaculately kept tiled bathrooms. Families often book one of the suites that come with a separate bedroom with a large double bed and a living room.
Facilities:
2 restaurants; bar; fitness center; sauna; Turkish bath; Jacuzzi; room service; laundry service/dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
