Hotel Victoria

What a charming Victorian style hotel, located in the heart of old Stavanger. Great location to walk to restaurants and near by attractions. Staff is cordial and professional, from the Front Desk to Housekeeping, they all strive to provide you with a comfortable as possible stay. The rooms are very comfortable, cozy, in very good condition, I loved the bathroom products provided, Penhaligon's. I enjoyed my stay in this hotel very much, and If visiting Stavanger I will patronize this hotel.

WOW! The staff was SO accommodating. We were visiting from the states and found very few issues with the language barrier, until we needed to cancel a dinner reservation. No options in English! The wonderful woman behind the desk picked up a phone, dialed the number, and canceled on my behalf. FACTOR IN THE WORLD CLASS BREAKFAST WHEN LOOKING AT PRICE! I forgot all about the complimentary breakfast when we arrived, and oh wow did it deliver. Food for every pallet and a brown cheese flight that had me hooked. Stellar location and incredible amenities. Do not skip the hotel bar. The drinks were very experimental in that i had seen nothing like them anywhere else, and they were all incredible. I tried maybe 6 different ones during my stay and each one was better than the last. One even comes with a macaroon! I'm not sure when I will be in Stavanger next, but when I am, I will be staying at the Victoria Hotel.

Our experience at this hotel was deeply disappointing and far from what was advertised. The room did not meet expectations based on the photos and descriptions online, but what truly ruined the stay was the unbearable noise on Saturday night. After returning from a long day of hiking, we hoped to get some much-needed rest. Instead, we found ourselves essentially trying to sleep in what felt like a nightclub. A party or wedding was taking place, and the music and shouting were so loud that sleep was impossible. We called reception multiple times. While the staff were polite and apologetic, they repeatedly assured us the event would end by midnight. Midnight came and went — the noise continued. We called again and were told “just ten more minutes,” but the loud music and yelling persisted well beyond that. It’s unacceptable that guests are placed directly next to such events without any warning or alternative arrangements. At the very least, rooms should be allocated in a way that allows guests to rest undisturbed. Unfortunately, this hotel stay was the lowlight of our time in Stavanger. We cannot recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful and comfortable stay.
