Fint hotel, men meget varme værelser

Pæne og rene værelser og venligt personale, men fordi værelserne lå på 4. sal oppe under taget, og det var varmt vejr blev værelserne næsten ulideligt varme, og vi havde svært ved at sove pga varme. Det havde været rart med fx en bordventilation vi kunne have tændt. Morgenmaden var virkelig lækker og overdådig.

Bästa boendet på vår norgeresa.

Vi bodde i Norge 7 nätter och detta var vår bästa övernattning. Det var svalt på rummet (ca 30 grader ute och inte alla hotell hade ac som funkade…). Det var tyst. Frukosten var toppklass. Dock fick barnen ingen mocktail (trots att det tydligen var en sommardrive på detta på alla scandic..) Bra läge.

Hotel opphold

Hotel såg veldig fint ut på utseende og lobby men når du kom up til korridor for rommet ditt jeg synes det var kaldt og ikke innbydene. Vi blir låst ut av rommet før utsjekking (teknisk feil) men ingen beklaget seg. Kan ikke anbefaler noe jeg ikke var heilt fornøyd med.

Bra hotell. Vi bodde i en av suitene. Et solid og godt variert frokost tilbud inkludert i prisen! Minus var at det var en del støv på rommet og på toalettet lå det et håndkle når vi ankom rommet. Et annet minus var at når vi åpnet vinduene kom det sigarettrøyk sivende inn utenfra. Alt i alt et bra opphold og det var ingen av disse tingene som ødela oppholdet.
