The Radisson is the full-service choice on Bryggen. The airport bus ends at the door, there’s a restaurant, a gym and a free sauna, and Skolten is about 550 m away in a straight line.
What keeps it out of the top three is breakfast. Radisson serves a buffet but doesn’t say it’s in the rate, so it scores nothing there.
Book a rate with breakfast and it’s as easy a night as any here.
Book it if
- You land late and want the airport bus to drop you at the door
- You want a proper restaurant downstairs
- You’re bringing a pet
Look elsewhere if
- You want breakfast guaranteed in the rate
- You need a priced parking plan

Which quay
SkoltenMeasured to Skolten, where Bergen Havn’s ocean-cruise turnarounds happen, Radisson Blu Royal is about 550 m in a straight line. For a Hurtigruten coastal voyage you want the Jektevik Terminal instead, about 750 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.
