Reviews for Thon Hotel Nordlys
Review 1:The rooms are nice, with plenty plenty of space and the beds are comfortable. We had a view on the sea (and the marina) from the upper floor, and it was really something special. The breakfast is very good (and that's something I can say for all Thon hotels), it's centrally located on the waterfront in the city of Bodø.
Review 2:View from our room was an office block. In-house restaurant was understaffed and dinner barely adequate.
Review 3:Good location, helpful staff, good breakfast, good room decor
Review 4:Nothing whatsoever
Review 5:Front staff brilliant. Best breakfast in Norway rooms very tasteful loved the aurora effect. Location easy to find close to both rail and airport. Would return to this hotel and recommend. Forth floor with harbour views spectacular.
Review 6:There was nothing we were not happy with.
Review 7:We were very impressed with this hotel. The room was spacious and included many additional items that made the stay even more comfortable e.g. coffee and tea making facilities, a Nespresso coffee machine, an iron and ironing board. The room was nicely decorated.
Review 8:I have no complaints.
Review 9:This hotel had efficient, helpful, and friendly staff members. Room was beautiful and very clean. The breakfast was beyond our best hopes, a wide variety of foods and all delicious.
Review 10:Nothing specific to this hotel but all hotels I stayed at, the twin bed thingy, with the thin mattresses was not the norm for me and my father. I know it's the way things are there in Norway but it did make for some sleepless nights.
Review 11:Very clean, friendly, location, breakfast.
Review 12:We loved the view from our newly remodeled,spacious room. The bed was awesome The bathroom was luxurious just like the entire room. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. This is a top quality hotel. Breakfast buffet was also very good.
Review 13:it is a good first class hotel at a reasonable price for Norway. It has a remarkable high quality pizzeria at the average price in Norway. and parking nearby
Review 14:Definitely ask for a room with a view on a marina, as many rooms have a view on building next to it, which is really bad... (we could see our neighbours apartments and offices, what they ate etc...). Scrambled eggs should be made of real eggs not with powder eggs (but besides, breakfasts are very good).
Review 15:Great location, helpful staff, affordable prices, very good Egon restaurant. Breakfasts are awesome, so are other dishes. Rooms are not very big, but they are big enough for two with luggage.. few meters away there is Sixt car rental, best way to explore the area.
Review 16:Bedroom door lock system, is card operated to open and CLOSE. Remember to when exiting your room to insert the red end of the keycard into outside lock to ensure the door locks !! Minor detail
Review 17:Right on the habour front, 7 minutes taxi from the airport. Right in the middle of town for Restaurants and Bars. They do have an Egon Restaurant but I was not able to use it as I had arrangements elsewhere. "Very friendly and tentative staff". "Excellent Breakfast !!" and breakfast room direct on the harbour. Will be staying again....
Review 18:Hard to find. Missed a comfortable chair and the bed was a little bit too narrow (would have preferred a double bed, really..)
Review 19:Everything. Got a great room on the upper floor with view to the port.

Review 64:Nothing
Review 65:I made the reservation 3 months ago and got a beautiful, spacious room with a gorgeous view over the harbor. Great location. The hotel is very quiet. The staff was extremely helpful and pleasant. And breakfast was ample and delicious. Great lobby area with free coffee. I highly recommend the Thon Hotel Nordlys in Bodo, Norway.
Review 66:I don't like the Thon hotels police because when you arrive they charge 500 kn. in your credit card and then they say they give you back. In this hotel I say I would prefer to pay when I did the check out. OK, but it was a problem and they charge my twice because they say the credit card doesn't work. My phone inform me of the movements of my credit card and I realised this.
Review 67:In Thon hotels breakfast is great
Review 68:There was no parking facilities due to road maintenance. Despite the fact that it says there is free parking, we had to park on a public parking that was further away than the normal parking in addition to the fact that we had to pay between 8 am and 16 pm.

Review 78:An excellent stay for a reasonable price (for Norway). Very nice room with an beautiful view, very helpful staff, great breakfast. I highly recommend Thon hotel in Bodo

Review 80:Nice newer hotel with a great view to the harbour (if you have a room on this site of the hotel).
Review 81:The restaurant "Egon" is not very good, the food is average at best and the staff isnt really in control. Please eat somewhere else, for example at Bjørk in the nearby shopping mall "glasshuset".
Review 82:Although the hotel is on the harbor, most rooms don't have a harbor view.
Review 83:Pretty hotel right on the water. Great breakfast in the morning and a very friendly staff.
