Hotel Norge is the one with a pool. It’s a heated pool in a spa you pay for separately, but it’s the only swim in our list, and with Nova, Café Norge and a gym the evening scores high.
It’s a big hotel, 415 rooms, on the square by the park, with suites for four. Skolten is about 1.1 km in a straight line, a taxi with luggage.
Breakfast depends on the rate. Check-in isn’t until 16:00.

- You want a grand-hotel night with fine dining
- You need a suite for four
Look elsewhere if

- You want to walk to the ship
- You land early; check-in is 16:00

Which quay
SkoltenMeasured to Skolten, where Bergen Havn’s ocean-cruise turnarounds happen, Hotel Norge is about 1.1 km in a straight line. For a Hurtigruten coastal voyage you want the Jektevik Terminal instead, about 450 m away. Your documents name the quay; the Bergen cruise guide has the rest.

In town
KlosterGarasjen, up to NOK 280 a dayThere’s no cruise car park at Skolten or Jekteviken that we could find. KlosterGarasjen, on Vestre Murallmenning, is the garage Visit Bergen puts closest to the coastal-voyage terminal: NOK 26 to 52 an hour, capped at NOK 280 a day, with 3-, 7-, 14- and 30-day passes. Scandic quotes the same garage at NOK 300 per 24 hours, so check the sign.
