Fodor's Expert Review Thon Hotel Kristiansund

On the north edge of Innlandet Island, this hotel is one of the region's best, with views of the harbor that receive so much praise for its natural beauty that it keeps people awake at night. Luckily, the calming and cleansing sea breezes passing through the floor-to-ceiling windows and balconies eventually lull the busiest minds to sleep. Rooms are otherwise small, but subscribe wholly to the highest quality of Nordic minimalism, with dashes of lime green in the fabrics. The hotel restaurant is open all day and serves a dinner buffet stocked with local specialties like klippfisk.
