Havly Hotel

Stavanger


A little bit off the main harbour drag, this business-focused, Best Western–owned place is a cut above your usual chain hotel. Looking rather like a cruise ship seen from the side, with its uniform square windows and white-clad facade, its rooms are spacious and well appointed, if a little boring and businessy.
