Lovely new hotel, little bits added to the touch. Breakfast was very well appointed, a really big choice from cold to hot to cereal and the usual continental cuisine. Location meant there was plenty of eating choices within walking distance.

Never fear, THON is here!

Checkin was easy. Friendly lady behind the counter. Got to my room, checked everything out. Nice bathroom with futuristic mirror lighting. A way better toilet than at the Scandic Luleå. And a shower cabinet with not one, but TWO doors, creating a clear corner in the bathroom for showering, unlike the last two hotels I stayed at this trip. The room itself? HUGE. I have never stayed in a hotel room this big before. The bed was comfortable. The room was connected to a central aircon unit that gently blowed cold air into the room. This being the third night of my trip, it was the first time I actually slept under the duvet instead of having tossed it to the side. Breakfast was crowded, but that's because I got there a little later than I normally would've gotten to the buffet. In all honesty, I would've liked to have stayed another night. One: because I got late to the Tirpitz Museum outside of town and I also had other things planned. Two: because it is an amazing hotel.

Incredible view of Alta from the 6th floor. Clean & quiet. Heated floors in bathroom. Very helpful staff! Superior breakfast! Conditions were icy, so wonderful that Peppe's Pizza was next door (delicious), and the 3-story mall could be accessed without going outside. Breakfast would have cost at least $40 each in a nice American hotel. Walking distance to Northern Lights Cathedral and top restaurants in area. Wise decision to stay here!
