My stay at the Orion Hotel was simply wonderful. The rooms were beautifully furnished, offering lovely views of both trees and mountains in the early Spring. Although the temperature control could have been better, the overall comfort was great. The service was exceptional, with staff being very nice and even remembered our names. The location couldn't have been better; it was within easy walking distance of the old city, Floybahn, and close to many attractions like the Bryggen District and Mariakirke. The dining experience was fantastic, offering a variety of choices and excellent quality. I loved my time at the Orion Hotel.
