What guests think
Reviews of Clarion Hotel Ernst highlight a very central location in Kristiansand, consistently excellent breakfast, and welcoming staff, while noting smaller or dated rooms, noise from streets or bars, and recurring issues with ventilation, temperature control, and room outlooks.
Many guests praise comfortable beds and the fitness area with sauna, though equipment can be limited and the sauna has occasionally been out of order. Parking is available but often limited, tight or off site, and some found the elevators or multi level layout confusing, with a few reports of elevator malfunctions. Overall, expect a solid city stay with clear strengths and a few consistent caveats.
