Business, pleasure, conferences, spa and Sweet Dreams, join one of the largest hotel organisations in Scandinavia. The Nordic Choice Hotels family is made up of more than 16,000 employees across more than 200 hotels and four chains; Comfort Hotel®, Quality Hotel™, Clarion Hotel® and Clarion Collection® Hotel. Additionally we operate with more than 40 stand alone hotels. We live and act through the words energy, courage and enthusiasm. The catchwords have affected us long before we existed, ever since they helped our owner Petter A. Stordalen win the award as Norway’s #1 strawberry seller back in 1974. They have since been a big reason why we have grown from 8 hotels in 1996 to more than 190 hotels today.
