Art at the hotel

Clarion Hotel Ernst underwent a full renovation that was completed in 2012. The hotel's rich traditions were preserved and combined with modern and international design, as well as exciting contemporary art.

"Staying at Clarion Hotel Ernst used to feel staying at a manor house or a luxury villa. These days, we want to convey more of a sense of being in touch with the whole world. We're in Kristiansand, but this interior and art could just as easily be found in New York or Paris," says Sune Nordgren, the man behind the artistic concept.

Welcome to Clarion Hotel Ernst – a fabulously vibrant meeting place in the heart of Kristiansand.
