Klosterhagen Hotel: A vocational training hotel in Bergen with homemade local cuisine and complimentary evening waffles
Unique Mission & History
Klosterhagen Hotel operates as a training hotel supporting vocational rehabilitation for individuals re-entering the workforce. The building dates back to the 1880s and sits on grounds originally associated with the Munkeliv Monastery, offering guests a stay with historical depth. Each room is individually designed, and the hotel's management follows a commitment to environmentally-friendly operations.
Dining & Breakfast
Each morning, guests receive a homemade breakfast made with seasonal, local ingredients, including Norwegian specialties like smoked whale and fresh bread. In the evening, complimentary waffles with homemade jam are served between 5pm and 8pm. The hotel also offers special diet menus, packed lunches for a fee, and reduces food waste through the TooGoodToGo program.
Rooms & Amenities
All rooms provide a flat-screen TV with streaming via Chromecast, tea and coffee making facilities, and a private bathroom with hairdryer. The hotel has family rooms, a garden with outdoor furniture and picnic area, and a shared lounge/TV area on the premises. Note that there is no elevator, and rooms vary in size with some on upper floors accessed by stairs.
Location & Surroundings
Klosterhagen Hotel is located in the quiet Nordnes district, a 10-minute walk from Bergen Aquarium and a 15-minute downhill stroll to Bryggen Wharf and the Fløibanen funicular. The Hurtigruten terminal is 10 minutes away, and the airport tram stops within a 12-minute walk. Nearby attractions include the Mostraumen half-day cruise departure point and Nordnesparken for sunset views.
Sustainability & Practices
The hotel operates with an environmentally-conscious management that prioritizes sustainable practices, including reducing food waste via the TooGoodToGo app. Homemade breakfasts emphasize seasonal and local produce, and the hotel's training mission supports social sustainability by helping individuals gain vocational skills. A craft shop nearby raises funds for the same vocational program, reinforcing the hotel's community impact.
