Information

Augustin is now the oldest family-run full-service hotel in Bergen. The hotel, built in 1909 in Jugend style, passed into the hands of the present family ten years later, and is now run by the fourth generation. Its 1999 extension increased the capacity 109 room and a new bar in 400 year-old cellar.

The hotel's new wing, however, brings you back to the modern age. The new rooms have all the modern facilities and comfort, and the interior has been designed by the young Bergen architect Aud Hunskar. Special doors with intarsia work are the first things you see, while both rooms and bathrooms show that the interior architect has concerned herself with both the practical and aesthetic aspects. In 1999 the hotel also won a price for the design of the reception and decor by the entrance.
