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.

My trip to Kristiansand was primarily to visit my son . The city is very nice during the summer and believe that there are more activities, but not much to do during the winter , not unless it’s for shopping 🛍

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.
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 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.
We liked the size of the appartment. It was very comfortable for a familiy with kids. 15 mins to the center with shops and restaurants. The location of the appartment is not especially attractive, no sea view or something but it is nice and quiet. The appartment is clean and everything is in order. The host gave all necessary stuff for the dish washer, washing machine, soap, toilet paper etc...
Warning, this is not a hotel, it is some kind of religious convention center.
Handling of electronic key was bad and unclear.
I would not call it breakfast, but to find the paper bag with a dry white bagel hidden in a fridge in a corner of the hotel was almost impossible. One person of the staff followed me in order to find the fridge but left before we found it..
As allways, a very comfortable stay at Hamresanden. Love the location and suroundings - so beautiful! Been here numerous times over the last decades and allways been my favourite near Kristiansand. Breakfast is fairly simple, but good! The staff is allways very available and helpfull.
Very very nice hotel. Staff at the reception desk ALWAYS so nice and willing to help. Check in and check out was easy and fast. Rooms are spacious, clean. One bus that takes you straight from airport to the center of Kristiansand and the hotel. 100% would come back.
Great location. Super close to the zoo and water park. Close to Abra havn which is some kind of pirate village/hotel, playground for kids. Nice to have a walk after dinner or a morning run. Good food in the restaurant. We had breakfast and dinner both days there.
BREAKFAST,WAS OK LOTS TO CHOOSE FROM VERY NICE ,GOOD DINNING AREA.
LOCATION, WAS IN THE TOWN SO HAD TO PARK THE CAR IN THE HOTEL CAR PARK WHICH WAS NEXT DOOR TO THE HOTEL ENTRANCE WHICH WORKED FINE.
ROOM, WAS FINE BUT NO PLUG IN THE BATHROOM SINK,
The hotel is well located in the center of Kristiansand, from here most attractions are within easy walking distance. The absolute highlight of the hotel is the really very good, sumptuous breakfast with all the options one can think of.
Clean, modern, great bed, windows I could open for fresh air and could also control the heat and light from a console at the door. Slept very well and the blinds made the room completely dark, a good thing in June in Norway.
The fabulous staff. They rang me in the morning even before we had left Ålesund to welcome us for the day. They were incredible kind and helpful , recommended the best restaurant and made the booking. Best service in Norway.
The location couldn't be more perfect! Right in the middle of town, with all the shops and restaurants right there around the hotel, and a giant parking garage down below. The rooms were nice and spacious enough.
Very nice hotel in the center of the town. Very friendly reception personnel. Received a complimentary bottle of water. Nice continental breakfast included in the price. Very comfortable beds.
Very comfortable rooms in this hotel and the staff is very friendly and accommodating.
Location is very convenient, especially when taking the ferry in the early morning.
I was given a complimentary take out breakfast because I had a very early departure. The staff ordered a taxi for me. The room was comfortable and clean.
