Quality Hotel Grand, Kongsberg

I am very satisfied with this stay. Nice breakfast, nice people and a nice room. The location of this hotel is the best place to stay in Kongsberg.

I stopped overnight in this hotel on a road trip towards the East of Norway. I had a hard time finding the underground garage entrance, Google Maps shows it as in the same block as the hotel, but in fact the entrance is on the opposite side of the road from the hotel entrance. Parking gives direct entrance to the hotel reception. My room was a bit of a contrast. The bedroom was very modern (brand new) and egonomically the best hotel room layout I have seen. It had a gigantic flatscreen tv with internet connection and casting from mobile devices worked. Wifi coverage was also excellent. So far so good. However the bathroom was not so modern. The toilet seat was the thinnest, cheapest thing you could buy and it was loose. The toilet bowl was dark under the water line as if it had not seen a toilet brush in a long time. The handbasin mixer tap handle was all squint and could be pulled off, missing a fixing. And lastly I only discovered in the morning that the shower cabinet was completely missing one of its doors! I honestly cannot undertand how all of these issues were left like that for guests. The restaurant had the usual pizz-pasta-salad-burger menu, I ordered the bacon cheesburger which was excellent. All the staff were very polite and service minded. My night sleep (a Friday night ) was constantly disturbed by a noisy street outside, people shouting and cars revving their engines until the early hours. I do not know if this was a one off or every weekend. The buffet breakfast was again excellent, real scrambled eggs, real sausages, bacon, small new potatoes - no mushroom though thats the only thing I missed. If it was not for the terrible state of the bathroom (and a little due to the noisy street) I would have given this hotel 5/5

Excellent service and top room quality. Friendly staff who gave a little extra means a lot! Recommended!
