Clarion Collection® Hotel Atlantic

Our room was spacious, comfortable and clean. Very comfortable hotel, all the staff here lovely and caring. The breakfast and dinner was awesome. Room was clean and Wi-Fi connection was great. Room was upgraded as I am a gold card member. Interesting hotel with whaling museum.

Decent quality and high level of personal service together with great location and well cleaned facilities. Quiet and well appointed rooms. Great stay and experience with the personell. Can absolutely be recommended.

Clean roomy room. Friendly staff. Location in center of town. I ordered a "superior" double room, but because I needed 2 separate beds I got a "moderate" room. I could not find any difference at all between "Moderate", "Standard" and "Superior" rooms, other than pricing. Maybe there is some more fancy shampoo in "Superior" rooms? Not worth the difference. I did not get any refound or compensation for "downgrading", but I got 2 separate bed, so I let it be. No parking. Parking cellar is operated by a separate company. But street parking seems safe. Chargers for electric cars seems sparse and slow in Sandefjord. The hotel is scattered with old whaling memorabilia. An asbestos fire suite was at display in the dining room - interesting or safety hazard? Breakfast was served in the dining room in the cellar, with is decorated as an Antarctic Whalers cabin, in a very cramped area without windows. A plus for people that follows wilderness series from Alaska on the Discovery Channel. Others may mot have acquired the taste yet. Inside tip, dress like a lumberjack to blend in. The muddy coffee served at body temperatur, comes with salty rubbery roadkill "bacon?" and scrambled eggs that can be mistaken for porridge. The meats, herring and "cod caviar" looked that they had been to breakfast at the hotel more times than me. On the other hand, the only "chef" on duty was a "one man band" cooking, waiting tables, cleaning with a smile to everyone. Alternative: Camping.

This hotel is a calm, friendly hotel with good service and a very nice breakfast. In the city centre and at walking distance from the train station. Certainly one of the best choices in town, if you are not looking for a hyper modern standard chain hotel.

As last time I did really enjoy staying at this hotel, nice clean and spacious rooms, good evening meals and nice city around it. No aircon this might be a problem in super hot summer days, but now it was OK. Only thing to complaine about is lack of gluten free food. Now days at least most Nordic hotel chains have separate tables for gluten free foods. Also staff was really nice to us, especially one of kitchen personnel during evening meal, helping my 'gluten free' companion to get something suitable for her, THANKS!
