Augustin Hotel

January 15, 2010 By: Bergen Category: Bergen Hotels

The Augustin Hotel Bergen is unusual in being Bergen’s oldest family-run hotel, owned by the same family for three generations. And it is Bergen’s only city centre hotel that is not part of a hotel chain.

The oldest part of the hotel was built in the Art Nouveau style in 1909 and has been owned by the Smørås family since 1919. Since then the hotel has expanded, incorporating old neighbouring houses and building new wings. In recent years, it has undergone extensive modernisation. Guests can enjoy both a pleasant “old-fashioned” lounge and modern, award-winning interiors. Its highly conscious use of colours and fittings helps make the Augustin a hotel out of the ordinary.

The Augustin Hotel Bergen features 109 well-appointed rooms with modern facilities. Paintings, sculptures and graphic prints add character to the hotel rooms and public areas.

The hotel is also out of the ordinary in terms of food and drink. The Brasserie No22 has a modern rustic interior but there is nothing rustic about the food it serves neither its light meals nor its tempting main dishes. The meeting and functions department is also unusual. It is in a 400-year-old stone cellar with long-standing traditions as a tavern. The bar counter is a piece of contemporary art.
