I had a wonderful experience at the Clarion Hotel Admiral, highlighted by its really good location right on the water and a quick walk to local attractions. The breakfast was a standout, offering a vast array of delicious options. However, my room experience was less than perfect due to noise from the nearby pier and some minor issues with the shower. Overall, I would recommend this hotel for its views and dining, but maybe not for a longer stay if you’re sensitive to noise.

I had a solid experience at the Clarion Hotel Admiral. The location was fantastic, right across from the picturesque Bryggen and close to the fish market. While the hotel offered a great breakfast and attentive staff, my room was somewhat underwhelming with limited views and a few shortcomings in the bathroom. Overall, it was a good stay but could use some updates.

Rooms

The room I stayed in was cozy and seemed fairly new, though it could use a bit of refreshment. I appreciated the large windows, but unfortunately, it only slightly opened, which wasn't ideal during a heat wave. The ensuite was petite, with a shower that often made the whole bathroom wet after use.

The common areas were well-maintained, and I enjoyed the lively bar atmosphere during the evenings. However, I found the card system for turning on lights a bit outdated and cumbersome, which detracted from the otherwise pleasant experience.

I had a mixed experience at the Clarion Hotel Admiral. The location is fantastic, right on the water with stunning views of Bryggen. However, the room I received was small and a bit too hot, leading to noise issues from nearby bars when I opened the window. On the bright side, the breakfast was really good with a great variety of options, though I wished some items were served warmer. 😊

The room I stayed in, while charming, was smaller than expected and a bit cramped for my toiletries. The heated floors were nice, and the decoration was appealing. However, I found it to be uncomfortably hot without satisfying ventilation.

The hotel's central location is superb, just steps away from Bryggen and the main attractions. However, the noise from nearby nightlife can be bothersome at night, which was a drawback for my stay.

The hotel's overall facilities were quite standard, with a decent bar area and all-day free refreshments. The potential for improvement exists, especially in terms of laundry service response and updating some rooms.
