Ansgar Sommerhotell

This is normally a Christian school, but in summer when all the students are away they turn it into a sort of hotel. All the staff are students from the school - the receptionists, cleaning staff and breakfast staff. If you take this into account, you will have a wonderful stay. If you expect a hotel with amenities, you should look further. The rooms are small but clean. For sleeping it is quite adequate. We stayed in a small familyroom with a bunk bed and a pullout sofa. There was a tiny kitchenette with a stove, burners and a refrigerator. Small bathroom with a shower. The surrounding area is very pleasing. It is close to the sea, with small white sand beaches and rocks. Nice to both fish and bathe. The kids loved it. Breakfast is with an assortment of bread and the basics (cheese, jams, ham and so on). They serve hard boiled eggs and has orange juice, apple juice, milk, coffee and tea. The hotel is located about a 5 minute drive from the Zoo, 10-15 minutes drive from the city center. They offer charging of electric cars. We stayed here two times before, and will stay here again next visit to Kristiansand.
