The hotel looked beautiful. The dining and breakfast areas give nice ancient vibe. The area is very walkable. However, the beds creaked a lot and were not very comfortable
It is in perfect location next to Sandnes train station, good selection of food, historical hotel. Love it. This was my second visit in 4 months. Will visit again when I am in the area.
Stayed here 4 times now and will always be my choice of hotel when in the area.

It was ok 😊 good location in the middle of town. I was a bit surprised that the room was quite set back from the main Gamlaværket itself in a weird sort of corridor with a key attached to a huge Sandnes gauk rather then a key entry system using a card. Bathroom very small but very good shower - very clean
Bed extremely comfortable
No character to the room as such and didn’t feel it was part of Gamlaværket at all.
Breakfast was lovely and good selection, no complaints at all
Staff friendly but overall room felt like it wasn’t part of the main establishment
Despite a cool reception at front desk, I would return to this hotel. Checking-in, the young lady let us stand in front of her without speaking to or acknowledging us. After a minute we asked if check-in was around the corner. She didn’t welcome us, instead said check-in was at 3pm but we could leave our bags behind the counter. Later she took our dinner reservation and likely forgot to reserve a table as the evening restaurant staff didn’t appear to expect us.
The person who checked us in was friendlier welcoming us to “this old hotel” she was jovial.
I would return because of location and local attractions in the vicinity of Gamla Værket.
Charming hotel, parking a bit odd, and there were some renovation going on but all in all a very good experience.

Koselig sted.
Veldig koselig fellesområder og restaurant, Helt greie rom, noe slitt men koselige. Frokosten var ikke mye å skryte av, ingen tilbud om egg & bacon, veldig enkelt pålegg.
Maten er helt grei, men her kunne man vært litt mer på tilbudssiden. :)
Overnatter nok her igjen en annen gang, men håper på litt bedre frokost. :)

Nice Hotel in Sandnes centre
Nice Hotel in Sandnes centre, great for restaurants pubs and train station and the Breakfast was great.
Room was at the front of the hotel so a little noisy during the night but clean and tidy.
