We stayed at this hotel during a conference and thought it was absolutely lovely! The room and bathroom were clean. There were no issues with check-in. The breakfast was really varied and good quality. There are shops and restaurants nearby and there are great connections to the airport. The only slightly negative comment I would have is that the towels were unnecessarily changed every day despite us not leaving them on the floor as requested for change. Perhaps a bit non-eco friendly considering that was the aim for the hotel!

We enjoyed our stay here - breakfast in particular was very good, with great gluten free options. We were less keen on the idea that your room isn’t cleaned unless you book it in advance, they didn’t ask about this on reception when we arrived and when I booked the cleaning on line their system didn’t work. I found the whole policy and the way they went about it irritating. Hotel is in a great location and aside from the cleaning issue, the rooms were nice with good beds.

Parkeringshuset var usedvanlig trangt. Ved frokosten var det vanskelig å finne en god plass for å sitte ned og spise. Personalet var hjelpsomme, men noen av dem virket ikke være helt oppdatert på småting, (resepsjonen).

Prima Hotel. Kleinste Zimmergrösse kleiner als erwartet. Aber mit Kühlschrank und Wasserkocher. Sowas ist immer gut. Frühstück wie immer bei Scandic sehr gut. Reichhaltig und Abwechslungsreich. Parkhaus ist zwar direkt erreichbar aber unfassbar teuer. Man kann es schon als Abzocke bezeichnen.

Alt for varmt, ikke ordentlig vindu. Styr unna

Sjukt varme rom. Bare 17 grader ute, men ca 30 grader + på rommet. Umulig å sove. Vinduet gikk ut til spisesal, ikke ut. Ingen mulighet til å lufte eller lignende. Vi måte opp på natten for å dusje i iskaldt vann. Anbefales ikke.
