Guide to Stavanger
Wild guess: You probably won’t be spending every hour inside the apartment while you’re here (unless you’re a vampire). So, we put together a little Stavanger-guide for you to explore.
Sights
Gamle Stavanger
An incredibly cosy walking area west of the harbour. Here you’ll find lots of white wooden houses, a ceramic shop, IDDIS (the Norwegian printing and canning museum), and a couple of cafes.

Fargegaten
Check out #fargegaten on Instagram. And IRL, of course. This is one of the most colourful streets in Norway, bustling with life and perfect for a coffee (or beer if that’s your cup of tea). Walking under the illuminated street lights at night is truly magical, and the atmosphere alone makes it well worth a visit.
Pedersgata
Probably the most exciting and diverse food street in Stavanger, with many exotic eateries and small, unique shops. Try the pizza at Panzanella, bao buns at YIPS or book a table at the MICHELIN Guide Restaurant, K2, if you're feeling fancy.
FRETEX Arkivet
The go-to store when you're on a hunt for vintage treasures. It’s located at the bottom of Fargegaten. Here you’ll find everything from pre-loved designer clothes, bags, and heels, to unique interior items.
