The closeness to the harbor and right in town. Ferries are right there also. The young man at Front desk was exceedingly friendly. His name is Mats and he was wonderful. He was very personable and showed genuine concern for us. We had driven 10 hours and were very hungry and tired. He found us a restaurant that was open on Sunday night. He is what customer service should look like.

I enjoyed a good breakfast, a very good bed, good room and it was silent. I had good service and friendly personel that was helpful. The hotel is at a great location and I paid a good price for it. They even got parking below the hotel, but I came by train this trip. Also nice that Thon Hotel have an app you can use to open your room and save points. Even booking.com bookings can be saved when you talk with reception.

The hotel is very nice, very clean. The family room was perfect with two bunk beds and fantastic view on the titular bystranda. The breakfast was perfect. There even was a wafflemaker with waffles concoction. Perfect, very Scandinavian!
What's also great is that the hotel is connected with Aquarama aqua park so you don't have to leave the building when you're going there. You can also lend towels at the reception since Aquarama doesn't provide them.

The hotel was located conventiently near both the train and the ferry terminal. When attempting to check in before 15:00 the desk clerk was extremely rude, interrupting and admonishing me for arriving early before I could even introduce myself. We ended up having to wait until 50 minutes after official check-in time to have access to our room. We booked the Presidential Suite and were very disappointed with it. It was old and dated, with dirty carpet, dusty surfaces and missing both the bathrobes and slippers that were listed as provided amenities. Also, it is very annoying to have a mini-bar but no prices.
There was no telephone in the room so the only way to contact the staff was by going to the front desk and waiting in line. The property is very dated and in serious need of a renovation. In addition, the staff could use a refresher course in customer courtesy.

Nearby water park and zoo (Dreypark) was fantastic, we spent the whole day there. Ferry ride from Lillesand to Kristiansand on the M/B Oya was spectacular, highly recommended to see the coast and small villages nestled among the islands. Book ahead to make sure you get on. We took the ferry one way and then took the city bus back to pick up the cars in Lillesand. Many restaurants to choose from in the downtown area.

Norway is stunning and beautiful.
Norway is stunning and beautiful. Kristiansand is the jumping off point after arriving on the Ferry from Hirtshals, Denmark. The drive along the southern coast is absolutely amazing. I would love to go back.
Breakfast is good, room is ok, however cold floors in the bathroom and slightly dirty floor with some rubbish and food from previous guests under the bed (when we moved the bed) - but this is probably something which is difficult to move and clean for a cleaning lady. Location is good and staff is very helpful and polite. We could get extra bed-cloth, toilet paper, towels, even some place in the fridge at reception for milk for children. It was comfortable for our family with (many) small children to stay in the hotel.
Everything was exceptional and fantastic. Everyone was surprised and amazed to see warm welcome note with wine, chocolates and Ice cream. Very neat and tidy place with all the facilities and easy access to swimming pool downstairs. Places such as Dyrepark, Canon museum , Cathedral are Not far as well. We all had a great time there and kids really had a wonderful time . We definitely recommend the property and hopefully in coming summers if there are plans to visit southern Norway, will surely stay here.
Thanks

The room was very clean and modern. Bed was comfortable. Very central location.
The breakfast is quite reach in terms of selection and will get you going for the day.
If you need parking and don't mind walking a bit, you could use Gyldengården P-Hus which is a bit further away but cheaper than Torvet Parkeringhus which hotel would suggest you.
Perfect place for children. They could freely play around in the area, play with animals, pickup eggs for breakfast, play footfall, there is a trampoline. Great place to stay if you plan to go to Dyreparken, its just few mins driving.
We were in a cottage 2 floors, clean and warm with floor heating.
Nice hotel
Good family room with big bathroom, suitable for a family
Nice breakfast with plenty of choice
Good location near the aquatic park and the marina
No need of car to explore the city, possibility to walk to access interesting locations (Odderøya for example)
Never had so much choice for breakfast before. Exceptional and very fresh. Funky hotel was very quiet but this is end of Jan so not a popular time.
Room nice size, no view to speak of but not there for the view from the room.
Very comfortable stay
Perfect hotel for an overnight stay between ferry from Denmark and inland Norway. Comfortable soft beds, good bathroom, the best breakfast I've ever seen. Late checkout, parking closeby, 24h reception.
Very clean, comfortable and an ideal location for local amenities. We were in Kristiansand to accompany our son who is studying at the local University. This was only a 6 minute drive away from us too.
the Hotel is located in the middle of Kristiansand with access to numerous restaurants by foot. check-in was very smooth, easy and covid-safe. rooms are very big and modern.
