Norway
Theatre ship with bed and breakfast facilities and bar. Totally unexpected cross cultural place to stay. Tone Holmen, one of the owners, is a great cook and speaks perfect English and Spanish, the ambience is terrific and the price of a bed for the night is reasonable for Oslo. The beer isn't very expensive either. The fjord is usually calm and it's a delightful experience to sit and look out over the sea while enjoying a cool lager and listening to some Afro-Caribbean music. Very near the main shopping centre, kindly hosts and lovely views.

Theatre in an old chocolate factory showcasing the most exciting performances in Norwegian and European contemporary theatre, music and dance. And before and after enjoying the mostly neither smug, chin-stroking or humorless shows, you can get pissed in the bar with the performers and crew.
