Great location on the brygge, very comfortable and our room was plenty spacioius with 2 beds, a good size bathroom, and room to move around (1 adult, 2 teens). Check in and check out were easy and the staff at the reception was quite friendly and helpful with information about the hotel and also where to charge our electric vehicle. They do have two charging spots in their garage, but there is also a public lot a few blocks away with many more charging stations. The breakfast was great - a huge selection and all very good. Water pressure is very good and no problems with adequate hot water in the room. The lobby is nice and can be accessed from the brygge or the street. We stayed in the main building, but if you are in the annex building, it is just steps from the main building. Our only issue was the noise coming from a restaurant/bar along the brygge late at night - maybe if you can request a room on the other side that wouldn't be an issue.
Our stay was a brief overnighter travelling between Oslo Torp & Geilo. The old Viking city of Tonsberg appealed to us as an attractive stop off & the Thon appeared to be the best hotel in town. It has a pleasant quayside location, though only a handful of bedrooms benefit from this outlook. The Thon served our purpose well, there is on-site parking (chargeable) & an array of restaurants & bars within close walking proximity. I’d liken it to a Premier Inn in terms of quality & decor. The lobby/reception/dining room are all encompassed within a ground floor open plan space, this area is brightly lit & rather sterile. I don’t think much was spent on interior decor advice! Our bedroom was functional & compact (as expected) & we overlooked the car park from its one small window. But the bed was very comfortable & sound proofing top notch, our little cell a haven of tranquility. The breakfast buffet was varied, tasty & served till a very agreeable 11am. Waiting staff & the reception team were all delightful, with excellent English skills. Overall, this was a good value stay & the hotel hit the spot for a brief overnighter.
This hotel was very near the ferry from Moss to Horten. We were tired and checked in quite easily. Make sure you have reservations as this hotel is used by those traveling on the ferry, it has a perfect location. There is safe parking behind the hotel for the cost of 60 NOK. Kind and helpful desk staff. They gave us directions to the military base and Martime Museum. We had a comfortable bed and quiet room. Our breakfast was at the place across the small street (Baltazars) due to renovation of the hotel's breakfast area. Very good selection with both hot and cold food. Nice staff there too. Overall this met our travel needs.
