Bergen, Norway

The pretty city of Bergen, on Norway’s wind-beaten west coast, is very proud of its cultural heritage. With unique crafts available to purchase, historic fish markets to wander, and the harbour's cluster of brightly painted wooden buildings sat on foundations dating back to the 12th century, there's plenty to see. Just a short walk away from the harbour, located on the main street of Torgallmenningen, you'll find the stylish Hotel No 13. Placing you in an easy spot to explore, this TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice 2018 winner is just as impressive as its surroundings.

Gear yourself up for a day of sightseeing with a delicious breakfast buffet, and head back to the hotel each evening to dine on classic favourites with a twist; think gourmet pizzas and juicy burgers. Away from the hotel, head up to Mount Fløyen via the funicular for views over the city, or venture further afield to explore the hiking trails and beautiful fjords that Norway is famous for. 

Accommodation

The hotel’s large and stylish rooms are decorated in bright colours, like rich purple and teal, with big pillows and comfortable beds. Superior rooms boast large windows that overlook the city streets and flood the space with light. Deluxe rooms have workspaces and large bathrooms with either a shower or bath, while the Suites feature slanted glass ceilings, so you can look up at the stars from bed.

Dining

Breakfasts are most definitely worth waking up for at Hotel No 13; served buffet style - or directly to your room - you'll have a large choice, including plenty of organic options. Come dinnertime, the chefs take influence from around the world and offer creative takes on classics, adding a Norwegian twist to burgers, flatbread pizzas and sweet desserts.

Location

Just 150 metres from Bergen’s main shopping street, the hotel is set on Torgallmenningen, a wide, paved avenue lined with stately buildings housing shops, restaurants and bars. It’s easy to get around and there’s a taxi rank, bus and tram stop by the hotel. The colourful UNESCO-listed Bryggen wharf is 450 metres away.
