several of the toilets were dirty; no lockers or boxes for personal belongings; just 3 sockets for 4 people in the room; person in room trying to get his washed clothes dried in the room --> very damp (drying room?)tumble dryer?); other guy opens window --> cold; isolation of room seems to be a general problem --> waste of energy; no shelf board to put glasses on when asleep; bed linen was charged at arrival, although not stated so at time of booking (in contrast to Oslo were it was included); guy and girl sitting in men's toilet at 00.45 am and chatting loudly; good breakfast though; general impression: okay for a "youth camp" but quite disappointing in comparison to all the other HI-hostels I visited on this trip (Aarhus, Copenhague, Stockholm, Oslo).

Andreas,

I'm sorry to hear that we did not live up to your expectations. It is true that bed linen is nor included in the price. Many of our guest still prefer "the old fashioned hostel way" of bringing your own sheets to reduce the price. It is stated at the HI booking site though: "You can bring your own bed linen or rent at the hostel for 70 NOK per set, one-time amount." As for the rest we are aware about the not-very-up-to date problem about missing lockers for personal belongings in the 4-bedded dorms. We do have lockers in our big dorm, and starting in September this year our rooms will be renovated - including the 4-bedded dorms. When we re-open in June 2021 all our rooms will get private showers and toilets. The 4-bedded dorms will get shielding between the beds, with built-in outlets, shelves and lockers for each bed. As for disturbing persons in the room, I wish had contacted the receptionist who could have helped to get you another room. Kind regards Jesper Munck, General Manager

Getting to us

Getting to us

Airport
The airport bus journey to the city centre takes about 40 minutes. Go off at the central bus terminal called Bergen Busstasjon. Transfer to the local bus nr 12 "Montana" that departs from platform B. Show the airport bus ticket for a transfer discount. The bus ride to Montana takes 15 -20 minutes. Don’t hesitate to ask the driver to announce the Montana stop for You. When you exit the bus you'll be about 200 meters from the youth hostel. Look for a hostel sign indicating the direction. You can check the timetable on the local transportation website skyss.no If you are 4 travelling together a taxi directly from the airport to Montana can be cheaper.
Bus
Once You have arrived at the central bus terminal called Bergen Busstasjon change to the local bus nr 12 "Montana" it departs from platform B. The bus ride to Montana takes about 15 minutes. Don’t hesitate to ask the driver to tell you when to go off (the bus stop is about 200 meters from the youth hostel look for a hostel sign indicating the direction). The last bus leaves the city centre between midnight and 01:00 depending on week day and time of the year. You can check the timetable on the local transportation website skyss.no
Car
From Voss: Follow E16 towards Bergen. After approximately 85 km (at Ulset) your road will be E39. After the 3km long tunnel "Fløyfjellstunnelen" choose the right hand lane marked "Stavanger". After a few hundred meters this leads you onto a multilane street where you should get to the farthest left lane as soon as possible. Keep left up to the traffic lights and turn left into Ibsens gate. Follow this street to its end - where you turn right onto road number 585. At the first hilltop after about 1/2 - 1 km you'll see a sign pointing to Montana. Turn left and follow signs all the way to the youth hostel. From City Centre: follow Kong Oscars gate Road 585 southwards. After driving through the tunnel in Haukeland hospital area you soon get to a hilltop where you see a sign pointing to Montana. Follow the signs until you get here. Free parking at hostel.
