Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Grand Hotel Terminus enjoys a prime location next to the Bergen train station, making it easy to explore the city and offering convenient access to the airport via the city rail. Guests often receive upgrades to modern, spacious rooms, some of which are newly renovated; these rooms often include comfortable beds and good air conditioning. The breakfast buffet is frequently praised for its excellent and varied selection, though a few guests have mentioned issues with the bathroom lighting. Amundsen, the hotel's bar and restaurant, is considered a good value, and many find the central location ideal for walking to Bergen's highlights and nearby shopping.
the breakfast was quite good i suppose. i needed a wine bottle opener and one was loaned to me, acceptable.
The hotel felt quite old fashioned! the carpeting seemed not very clean and the furniture felt dated. the windows let in cold air, and the heating wasn't great. There was no heat in the bathroom. the shower water was only warm. I expected better.

good locationcramped bathroombroken door lock
the location was good because it was near the train station.
My superior king room had issues. the bathroom was very cramped and small. there was also a problem with the door lock. It didn't work at all.
the hotel's location near the railway station and taxis was very convenient. the breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of choices i wanted. i appreciated the book in the room that detailed the hotel's history and its famous guests. the room included a balcony and a bath i enjoyed.
the first room i received on the 2nd floor offered a limited view over a wall. it was quite small and old. i requested a different room and got one on the 6th floor.
