It's easy to get there by the ferry, you can catch it near the town hall and then it's about a 10 minute walk from the ferry stop to the folk museum. If you have a full day you can then walk from the folk museum to the viking ship museum and the Fram or Kon-Tiki museums where there is another ferry stop to return to the city center. The ferry information is online.

Its a large scale outdoor museum with lots of walking between the different buildings - you could spend anything from a couple of hours to most of a day there, depending on your level of interest and how nice the weather is. Not sure exact location of your hotel but you take the ferry across from the dockside - its 10-`15 minutes walk the other side, or think there is a bus. We did the Viking Ships museum first which is en route and definitely worth a visit too.
