We stayed at the Skansen Pensjonat for four nights. For the first three nights we had an apartment with private bathroom. The last night we stayed in a double room w/ shared bath. Both were wonderful, as was Jannicke, the owner. I would recommend any room here but we particularly liked the apartment for the private bath and room to... more

Lovely little guesthouse up a hilly street in a pretty and central area of Bergen. The price (600K for a double room) was very good value for Norway, where everything is really expensive. We had a cute double room in the attic of the house, with a great view from the skylight. The room was simply but tastefully furnished, with... more

Skansen is exemplary of everything a pension/guesthouse/B&B should be: clean and efficiently run, with the lived-in atmosphere of someone's home and a warm and welcoming staff. In a town with few inexpensive hotels, it represents an excellent value for the traveler who is minding his budget. I stayed in an economy double room (with shared toilet and shower facilities) for... more

I stayed here for 2 nights with my son and my friend. Our trip was to watch our football team Everton FC who where playing FC Brann in the UEFA Cup. We won 2-0. Our room was the balcony room and there was plenty of room for the 3 of us, the balcony was great for sitting out and people... more

I stayed here first in spring of 2006 and again with family in Dec 2007, and was very satisfied again. I made the reservation via email and one of the innkeepers (a family that lives in an adjoining house) was there to greet us and show us up to our room (the same one I had stayed in before, actually).... more

Jannicke and Svein have created a wonderful pensione!!! The owners were so hospitable. The room (apartment with private bath) was tastefully decorated and extremely comfortable. Free wifi was a definite plus!! The breakfast was absolutely delicious - traditionally Norwegian - breads, jam, meats, cheese, and eggs. Afternoons were would return to coffee, tea and cookies (loved those cookies). It is... more

We stayed in a standard double for 2 nights and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We arrived off the late ferry from Newcastle, and were met with a friendly face and welcome cup of tea. One tip - take a normal taxi car, not a people carrier which can't fit up the narrow street. The room was spacious, warm and comfortable,... more

We stayed at the Skansen Pensjonat for 4 nights in September 2007. We had the attic apartment and we loved it! Our apartment was open plan and had lots of room. There was a kitchenette, a dining table, 2 comfy chairs and a good sized bed - even with all this there was still plenty of room. We also had... more

This B&B is run by a very friendly hostess, the rooms are spacious, and the breakfast (breads, meats, cheeses, eggs, juice) is a filling way to start off a day in Bergen. Although the showers are shared, the hostess provides bathrobes for walking through the hall. Speaking of which, the downstairs hallway is decorated with (well-deserved) magazine articles recommending Skansen... more
