Clarion Hotel Ernst

Great location; easy to find and close to shopping street and pedestrian mall/dining/ferry Breakfast was really good with variety of options

The hotel is in a perfect location close to activities, shopping and restaurants. The breakfast was fantastic with a lot of variety and great choices. Just around the corner there are streets that are closed to traffic. We parked our car at the hotel and enjoyed three wonderful days. Close to the hotel are hiking trails and lakes for swimming. There is a large pool nearby and the Bystranda beach where you can sunbath and swim. Kristiansand is a wonderful place to visit.

The staff were friendly and helpful, the underground bargain was good as I was concerned about my bike. The room was compact but very modern with a good shower. The breakfast was an excellent variety, I would challenge any one to say they could not find something. Plus it was well served and cooked were appropriate.

The breakfast was very good, varied and plentiful. The hotel location was excellent as it was convenient and central.

I arrived in the early hours of the morning on the Denmark ferry, and travelled onwards before breakfast. I was in a rush. But in this short visit the staff were great, efficient, kind, friendly. You would not have guessed it was 02:00 in the morning! I was sorry not to see more of the hotel.
