Quality Hotel™ Waterfront, Ålesund

The room available for the current reservation was with a window facing towards internal halway. After an evening I asked for a replacement preferably with a window that could be opened, but this was not possible. Ended up in another room with internally facing window with an aircondition not functioning very well and a morning headache: I was very happy to check out and leave the hotel. The breakfast was not very impressive, with dried out fried eggs at 7.30AM.

Very disappointed kr620 for christmas tapas? i expect better food from professional cook's than i can make myself not the case i'm afraid. Also dessert was tasteless and mass produced food that was not up to standard.

We arrived a family of 6, looking for 3 double rooms. The receptionist was busy with a customer. We waited for 20 min. And then suggested to leave and return. We returned after 20 min. And she was still trying to resolve this customer issue. This should have been a red light for us. Anyhow we asked to see a room and got 2 keys, rooms looked big and nice and we decided to stay on the hotel. We booked 3 rooms through Hotels app and checked in. Surprisingly we received totaly different rooms, some were actualy facing the interior stairs with no windows! 6 of us came back to the reception with all the luggage, we were told that if we want the "other" rooms we should upgrade and pay additional charges. It was very misleading. Bad start. We booked the nicer rooms, they were nice, but: 1. They were not clean, we found dirt and a bottle cap on the floor. 2. The light sensor in the glass walls bathroom keeps the lights on for too long, during the night the whole room is full of light due to that. 3. Not realy a "water front", more of a "parking front". 4.Breakfast is average. 5. Worst of all, my daughter found a bug in her bed!! While reporting this the answer was that they are sorry but it's hard to get rid of them as they come from the pipes! I asked to see the manager, the answer was "all the management are attending a meeting in Oslo". No one really cared. To summerize - poor value, highly priced, bad service, not clean - stay away. Not even close to any of the excellent hotels we stayed in Norway.

I stayed at this hotel for one night before I flew out of Ålesund. It is right on the main road so it is easy to find and easy to get anywhere whether walking or driving. It has a nice bar and patio area overlooking the water. The size of my room was larger than a lot of European hotel rooms but average for an American size room. The WiFi worked well and breakfast was good. There wasn’t anything great about this hotel but I had no complaints either.

We had a waterfront view from the second floor. Excellent location close to "downtown." Bathroom/shower enclosed by non see thru glass. Small closet. Comfortable bed. Service fine. Had breakfast two days. Good selection, especially appreciated the pineapple slices. Would choose again.
