Scandic Kristiansand Bystranda
Beachfront city hotel with dog goodies and sea views
This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.
What we've verified
The hotel sits directly on Bystranda city beach with a seafront promenade, and Odderoya's trails and the harbour are a short walk for coastal dog walks.
Dogs of any size welcome in pet rooms; cats not allowed.
How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.
NOK 200, Per pet per night
What we've confirmed, at a glance.
The property.
Verified with the hotel, honestly marked.
Pet rooms must be requested; guests with dogs have been asked to take breakfast in a designated common area rather than the main breakfast room. The connected Aquarama water park and spa is a separate facility and not for pets. Guide dogs stay free under Scandic policy. Cats not accepted.
Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
Everything, without the wall of text.
