Byparken is for big families. Scandic sells a Family Four room, a junior suite for five and a presidential suite for six, and the airport bus stops right outside.
It scores low because there’s no restaurant listed and breakfast depends on the rate. Skolten is about 1.3 km off.
If you’re six people who’d rather share one room, start here.

Which quay
SkoltenMeasured to Skolten, where Bergen Havn’s ocean-cruise turnarounds happen, Scandic Byparken is about 1.3 km in a straight line. For a Hurtigruten coastal voyage you want the Jektevik Terminal instead, about 650 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.
