Comfort Hotel Grenlandsporten

Comfort Hotel Grenlandsporten

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed here for a few days as our base while we did road trips down the southern coast of Norway and it was perfect for our needs. The hotel is brand new, with a supermarket and Burger King next door. Equipped with super fast electric vehicle charging stations it ticked all boxes for us. The rooms were brand new and a little on the basic side but we didn't need any bells and whistles, it was pristine and quiet and right next to the major highway to get everywhere. I would say it is essential to have a car while staying here because apart from the supermarket and Burger King there is not much else near the site, the nearest town is just 15 minutes along the highway. The highlight for us was breakfast. Amazing selection and really nice, something for everybody and presented beautifully. Would definitely return :-)"
