I had a short weekend stay in Bergen related to work, and was looking for a central located hotel. I chose Magic as I have never been to a Magic hotel before.
The check-in process was a bit difficult as I had to text back and forth with the hotel to register and pay to get my stay registered. When the stay was accepted, I had to use the not-so-good app to unlock the doors. It worked fine most of the times, but I had to restart the app every now and then. Also, the hotel does not have any obvious reception by the entrance, and the elevator is connected to the rest of the shopping center.
The location is very convenient, and the rooms were clean and of good standard with a nice design. However, it could be a bit tight for two persons. I also had some issues with the AC which didn’t seem to work, and the TV software crashed when trying to watch or stream.
As there was not much space in the room, and no lobby, lounge or restaurant, I wouldn’t prefer this hotel for bussiness trips. If you come to Bergen for a short stay and mostly spend the time exploring the city, then this hotel is a nice hub.
