Clarion Collection Hotel Skagen Brygge, Stavanger
An approachable hotel along Stavanger’s bustling harbor with an outdoor terrace and free breakfast.
Overview
Facing the historic harbor (and cruise ship pier), this 116-room hotel occupies a central location in Stavanger. Basic but contemporary rooms have big windows, and a percentage of all categories—even standard—face the waterfront (request upon check-in). Freebies include breakfast and a light evening buffet, with more dining options a short stroll away. Guests can also purchase beverages at the hotel bar and sit on the covered terrace.
Kimkim's Take

Pros
- Enjoy a laid-back hotel with a maritime vibe, thanks to its waterfront setting next to boats and facing the historic architecture of Old Stavanger.
- The hotel is within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and hiking and fjord excursions, plus museums dedicated to maritime history, canning, and oil.
- Rooms are bright from the near-floor-to-ceiling windows that face either the waterfront or the 19th-century observation tower called Valberg Tower.
- There’s a small fitness center onsite with weights, treadmills, and yoga mats.
- During the peak summer months, cruise ships are often docked directly in front of the hotel, obstructing the view and adding daytime crowds.
