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 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.
