Clarion Hotel® Stavanger

We had multiple times problem getting a elevator alone. The elevators were way to small to be more then your group. We booked a suite, thinking it would be something newer and bigger then a regular hotel room. We had a lovely sofa with chairs, but missing a table. In the bath tube we found a flying ant, the next neighbor under or on the side smoked a terrible sigarett, making the whole room smell terrible, and we had to have the windows open because of the destroyed climate control. Middle of the night there was a race outside out room, plenty of party happening in this hotel. Breakfast was good, but not covid19 compliant in holding the golden meter as the hotel calls it. We are locals that was staying a night away from baby first night, planning to get a good sleep and not all these problems.

We stayed two days. Our room at the 13th floor had a fantastic view over the city. Beds are comfortable, bathroom clean with accessories. The crew is very service minded and kindly to deal with. Breakfastroom is quiet with wide offers. Parking garages with contact for electric cars near by. Central with 10 minutes walk to the center. We enjoyed our stay.

Stayed in a suite. But the standard was bad. Dirty bed, bad mattress. No coach. Difficult curtains. Didn’t recon nice me asa gold member. Even during covid 19 the breakfast was the best to recommend at this hotel.

2 errors. When checking in, bad service - the receptionist wanted to charge when I said I had already pre-paid. Made me feel stupid and I paid again. Noticed next day the dubbel charge. When checking in for 3 nights, we also got no information that there's no house keeping due to corona. Next day when everything's on the floor and we get the information, I ask for an exception since we didn't get the information on check-in. I hear how the two receptionists discuss if one of them should do it since housekeeping went home. Since no one wanted they told me no and even made me feel stupid for asking (again). That's poor service for the price paid.

We arrived at the hotel after an 8-hour trip by car from Oslo. My wife and I were welcomed at the entrance and given all the information we needed to have a safe stay at the hotel at these Covid-19 times. We had planned to have dinner at the restaurant both Friday and Saturday, but it was closed those days. We young lady checking us in recommended to download an app "Foodora" where we could choose from several restaurants in Stavanger and have the food delivered at out room. We used the app to order dinner both Friday and Saturday and had excellent food – still warm – both days. The room we got was an upgrade to a suite (room 613). It was a lovely corner suite with a lot of windows and a great view of the city. Due to Covid-19 restrictions, the usual buffet was suspended for a “light version” with less to choose from. Still more than enough to choose from and a great variety of excellent food. All in all. Super rooms, very service minded staff, and a great location. The only problem is parking, but this time there was plenty of space. Just keep in mind that you remember to pay and pick up the car before parking time has expired because the parking attendants in Stavanger are known to have an extra focus on hotel area. This hotel is by far my Choice in Stavanger and I plan to return in June or July.
