Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 4 October 2026 · How we review hotels
Bergen Børs Hotel is for travellers who want history and a central address in one. It fills the old stock exchange from 1862, a few minutes' walk from the fish market, Bryggen and Fløibanen, and the grand dining room where breakfast is served is the part guests remember most. They also praise the helpful staff, the comfortable rooms and the three restaurants, with cocktails in the bar a popular way to round off the evening. The trade-offs lie in the rooms rather than the public spaces. Sizes vary, some rooms feel small and lack drawers or bathroom shelf space, and several guests felt the price was high for what the room offered. Steps at the entrance, a car park a short walk away and late-night noise from the square are practical points to weigh. Couples who will spend their days out in the city get a striking, well-run base; anyone who wants plenty of room to spread out should book a larger category.
Guests score it 8.6 out of 10 — the average across the 4 hotels we list in Bergen is 8.9.
What Guests Loved
- Location is what guests mention most. The fish market is 140 metres away, Bryggen 550 metres and Fløibanen 450 metres, and guests say they could walk to every sight, restaurant and shop, with the train station within reach too.
- The 1862 stock exchange building makes a strong impression, and the dining room in particular is described as spectacular and magnificent. Several guests were surprised by how striking the common rooms are.
Things to Consider
- Room sizes vary. Several guests found their room on the small side, with no drawers and too little shelf space in the bathroom for two people, and some twin beds were felt to be narrow.
- Guests accept that Bergen is not a cheap city, but value for money is the area where the hotel scores lowest, and some felt a small room was a lot to pay for. Others felt the quality justified the cost.
Should you book it?
Bergen Børs Hotel is worth booking for couples on a city break who want Bryggen and the fish market on foot — but pick somewhere else if you need a spacious room with plenty of storage.
