Quality Hotel Grand Farris, Larvik

I stayed here over Easter of this year (2008) which was great even the 3feet of snow was wonderful! Just what you want in Norway!
The hotel as you walk through is very modern apart from the lift....i suggest you take the stairs if you have a lift phobia!! The receptionist was lovely and she spoke english very well!
The only problem we had was when we checked in we were told that a band was playing that night so it might be a bit noisy...fine! By about 5pm we could hear the band playing and it was right below our room! My partner took it upon himself to go downstairs to reception....a few minutes later he came back to the room, told me to pack everything up as they had upgraded us free of charge to a suite! How amazing.. a view of the Larvik fjord and we had a balcony, lounge and huge bathroom and all tastefully decorated!
Th breakfast was ok, your standard continental breaskfast but it did the job to set you up for the day. Cheeses, meats, bread, caviar!
The hotel has a wonderful location, your directly opposite the bus station and train station (yet the hotel inside is very quiet, you cant hear outside noise).
There is also free internet in the lounge.
A great hotel in a great location with very helpful and friendly staff.
