What should I order at Quality Hotel Waterfront?

It is best known for its waterfront location in Ålesund, with views of the bay, sea, and passing ships, especially from rooms, the lobby, and the veranda with swinging chairs. Reviewers also repeatedly mention that it is close to the city center and that the breakfast is a standout part of the stay.

Reviewers most often highlight the breakfast, especially Norwegian bread, pastries, and the breakfast buffet, which several guests call outstanding. One guest also mentioned a nice and cheap buffet in July, and another liked the morning ginger shot.

The atmosphere is modern, clean, and comfortable, with a sleek hotel feel and views over the water. It seems to suit couples, business travelers, and families, since guests mention suites, business stays, and family rooms booked at short notice.

The listed price is £103, and several reviews describe it as good value and quality. Guests also note that peak-season July rates are higher, but the breakfast and waterfront setting help justify the cost.

If you want the full view experience, reviewers point to rooms on the sea side and the waterfront veranda, where you can watch ships come and go. One practical note from guests is that the restaurant is closed on Sundays, so that is not the best day if you want to eat on site.
