They did not mention it was a zoo/pirate themed park. I was travelling for work without my family, so it wasnt a big deal, but this would have been a huge selling point if my kids were in tow. Great hotel, good buffet restaurant, and it is indeed close to the airport. I hope i can bring my family back to enjoy the park. ##### Stephen Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thor Erik 10 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bra hotell ved E18 og dyrepark Bra opphold.

Restauranten burde hatt take away og noe annet enn buffet for slitne familier på kveldstid ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Anders 23 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Helt ok standard men ikke noe mer. Litt rart bad da det ble oversvømt ved dusjing. Flate oppbrukte fjærputer burde vert fiberputer grunnet allergi. Sengen var ok men ikke opptimal. ##### Anders Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 14 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Gjennomsnittlig norsk = dyrt og litt kjipt Mye penger for lite rom uten frokost eller annet inkludert. Veldig hyggelig personale, men litt kjipt at man ikke får mer for pengene. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ann-Helen 25 Jul 2023 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Disliked: Cleanliness Lite rom, dårlig seng nummer to, rommet ble ikke rengjort.

The room was so cold that I set the stove up to max, that means 30 degrees….. ##### Guro Nordli Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Erika 12 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service To be completely honest. I don't think the bunk bed is apropriate and safe for kids above 9 years old. Unless they have a small complexion. My 13 year old had half of his legs out. And I was too afraid for my 8 year old to turn around and fall from the higher bunk bed level in the middle.of the night. Otherwise I lived the location as you are just next door to Dyreparken entrance and it has its perks. Enjoy the some animals sleep (zebras, ostriches, jirafes, okapies) as they mingle at the yard next to the hotels entrance. Buffet very accomodating. Restaurant and bar have a nice bive. And souvenir store has lots to offer. Book in advance and plan to enjoy several days as it is quite Disney style ;) ##### Erika Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Julie 10 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Worst hotel I have ever stayed at. So many kids were running, spanking doors and screaming. w We could hear reception and the kitchen and everything outside, including what appeared to be a loading dock. People were smoking right outside so we had to close our window but because there was no temperature control we slept with ice. Iasked a our the noise abd they saix there is nothing they can do until 11pm when quiet hours started. The kitchen/ loading dock stayed at 6 am leaving little time to sleep. We used noise canceling headphones but they barely took the edge off the noise At a minimum they should not rent the room we were in but guessing since they didn't offer to move us the entire hotel needs better sound proofing. ##### Julie Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Annie 26 Jul 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness #### Unclean Money Grab The floor had food crumbs all over it, the sofa was visibly dirty that I wiped it with a towel and the towel turned brown, there was trash bag under the bed, and the bed cover had a ton of lint and hairs on it. I mean, we paid 2700 NOK for one single night, plus 350 NOK per person for dinner plus 200 NOK per person for breakfast. This doesn't include the cost of the actual park (which is expensive, but also fantastic and worth it, in my opinion). But this hotel is a huge money grab and they don't even have the decency to keep their rooms clean in all the overturn. I complained kindly to the front desk and they gave me an email address to write to for an official complaint. I wrote them, no answer, wrote them again, no response. It's disappointing to see that they don't respect their customers enough to even respond. It's too bad because it is obviously an unbeatable location, and with a young kid in Norway, it's a place I would have loved to frequent. At least the parking was free. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A22087CF9E1308A2E331300E994EA13A64A762961658867281956.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/526105A8595BBEEA8D8629F459313B3020BFBBA61658867288931.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E3C1E33BD448362AF90BE17438B99C403BEE04F61658867282290.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/174C48BCD5748EDB94D9B210F70C0EA5BE1D79A21658867286660.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Annie Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Marte Caroline 21 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Anbefaler oppgradering til rom med terrasse Selve hotellet, servicen, og frokostbuffé var glimrende. Rommet var veldig enkelt, pluss for vannkoker og tv på rommet. Men vi så rett inn til naboene fra vinduet, så vi valgte å trekke for gardinene under hele oppholdet. Minus for utsikt/innsikt og mye støy/lyder fra gjestene rundt oss. ![Fra inngangspartiet ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/73d7d042-3bea-4810-bb89-ce4eca20d39f-1755802175414.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Mange flotte figurer rundt på hotellet ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/676a2fe9-b805-475a-a93f-d2b2de32b3c8-1755802239660.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Marte Caroline Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charlotte 19 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Veldig barnevennlig.
