Excellent location right in Alta center (which is very small), best buffet breakfast at a very reasonable price in all 3 weeks of my Norway travel, front desk staff very helpful/polite/professional, clean and comfortable room with spacious bathroom(shower, toilet, sink, hair dryer, towel racks. Only 2 downsides: 1) need expanded dinner menu 2) cost 250 NOK one way from airport and bus schedule is unreliable. The bus does stop about 4 minute walk away in big parking lots across the street from Thon hotel which is next door to Scandic

The room was very nice and large, #646, it faced the cathedral perfect for sunsets
Great stay. Very helpful staff. Breakfasts are very good. Also has access to the municipal 25m swimming pool. Would strongly recommend. The view from our bedroom of the Northern Lights over the Cathedral was a real bonus!

Everything was great. Rooms a a tad dated but property was great for a night. Breakfast was good and they are allowing a 2p checkout.
This room seemed to be a bit older or maybe other rooms I’ve stayed in have been updated recently. This does not take away from it being a pleasant stay and a comfortable room. I am a solo traveller and it was good for me being the queen bed option. I feel a couple might be a bit tight but definitely doable.
The staff were very friendly and remembered me. Got me in a tad earlier than check in, which was appreciated. The local bus is only a short walk to the hotel, and the town is so small that you could walk anywhere in the main “city” from the hotel.
I will stay here next time I’m in Alta.
The location was great. I had a room facing the Northern Lights Cathedral which got nice views with the northern lights one night. The room was comfortable and a good size for one. Staff were very helpful, however sometimes during busy periods it took a long time to just purchase a bottle of water. The breakfast was good and varied and if purchased at the hotel cheaper than what was charged when booking. The local bus stop is 100m from the hotel so it was cheap and easy to get from the airport to the hotel. There were two nights that the restaurant was closed due to functions that wasn’t communicated to guests. Besides all of that, an excellent hotel in a great location!

Breakfast was great. Note: not the hotel’s fault, but Parking was less available and more expensive than the Expedia listing showed - but if you use the lot across the street you only have to pay during the daytime and it works out a lot cheaper. The hotel was average. Not a normal problem there: It was very warm in Alta the week we were in town. They have no air conditioning, and so we had to leave the windows open - which meant we could not sleep well due to noise and light (the sun doesn’t set up there). They also have no fans - which is weird, as most places we stayed up there had small fans you could use to move air into the room - but this hotel didn’t. It would behoove them to buy a stock of fans to keep for the odd days when it is warm. The stuff in the area is fairly touristy and expensive but easy enough to find a decent restaurant to walk to.

Quiet h-l, too small room, wi-fi troubles.
There is very good, rich breakfast, friendly staff but unfortunately at least 3 of those members were quite useless in helping us to get that wi-fi. For all our 3 days of stay there was a lot of problem with the wi-fi, including the totaly wrong instructions how to get it. Those instructions were given to us in a small peace if paper together with the key-card.
The rooms are with big, comfortable, clean bed and linens but the space in the room is very tiny, so if you are a couple, you will be bumping accidently to each other, stapping on each other feet, nocking things around or stepping on peaces of your luggage. And we are both slim people. I can't even imagine how hard it could be if the customer is of a bigger body-type: taller or wider.
