Dyreparken Safarihotell

I have booked your hotel for my colleague for the purpose of applying for a Schengen visa. However, due to a mistake on my part, I have made a mistake in the dates and in fact I should have booked for June. I sincerely hope that you will cancel my booking and refund my fee. I would be very grateful! Your friend

The Dyreparken Hotel is family friendly, located 13km from Kristiansand and belongs to a zoo & fantasy park for kids. The hotel was built in 2001 and offers 51 double rooms & 107 four-bed rooms over 4 floors. The hotel is decorated with African safari items. You need a car to reach the hotel. Service is friendly. Our room was small, modestly decorated and furnished, with an acceptable twin-bed. The tiny separate bathroom had washbasin, toilet and shower. Free Wi-Fi Internet. Window can be opened. All was clean. In the ‘Safari’ restaurant an OK buffet breakfast is served: eggs, cold cuts & cheeses, bread & toast, cereals, fruit, milk & yoghurts, fruit juices & preserves, rolls & croissants, vegan & gluten free Items, water, tea & coffee. The Dyreparken hotel is fine when you fancy a stay with kids at a fantasy park and when you have a car. Otherwise, you find better options in Kristiansand.

The hotel essentially serves the adjacent theme park, so perhaps expecting it to meet the needs of a business traveller is asking too much. However... Check in was friendly, if rather slow, and I was asked to pay in advance for my three days of parking, which I was happy to do but required a receipt so I could reclaim it. That wasn't possible, I was promised one would be available on checkout. Room was OK, but no more; a not very large space was further constrained by a pair of unfolded, made-up bunk beds. Blackout was just about OK, bed was acceptable, as was the shower (though no more than "acceptable" in any of those cases). Leaving very early for a flight on the morning of checkout, I asked for my bill the night before (room was pre-paid, but there was the parking...). No, not possible, but "we will leave a note so when you actually checkout it will be ready". Fast forward to 05:00 and, of course, no bill and the guy had no idea how to generate it - "don't worry, we'll email it to you". they didn't, of course, so I am now out of pocket for three days of expensive Norwegian parking. Would I go back? Definitely not
