Top Kristiansand Zoo Hotel Reviews

Radisson Blu Caledonien Hotel, Kristiansand

8/10 Good

"Very friendly hotel. Staff 5 star . Breakfast served only till 10am but was very good choice offered. Location good apart from noise from the container port next door and loud until after 2am at least one night and early every morning, due to this we would not stay again. "

Dyreparken Safarihotell

4/10 Poor

"The staff was friendly and quick, but the hotel entrance was hard to find in the dark because it was moved and there inadequate lighting and signage. The room was clean, but it was TINY and had no room for our suitcases. The bed was also and old spring mattress that sagged in the middle. We stayed only one night because it was close to the airport, so it was bearable but I will not return. "

Scandic Kristiansand Bystranda

8/10 Good

"Easy to find, no35 bus from airport. Lovely location by the water with promenade walks. Clean room but no drinks in room. Good breakfast. Bicycles free to borrow. Only Norwegian tv channels in room, although you can Bluetooth music from your phone to the tv. The Aquarama SATS facility with swimming pools etc are adjoined, guests can use for an extra fee. Nice and quiet despite its size. Friendly and helpful staff. "
