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!

Rude staff, overpriced for what u get

Our flight got cancelled and we booked this place because Thon Hotel where we stayed at previously was fully booked and we liked its location and noted that Scandic was just beside. However, although we paid double the price at Scandic, the rooms were smaller, views weren’t as great and most of all, staff there were all grumpy and receptionist that tended to us was rude. We simply asked if we could get an earlier check in if there was a room available as we were tired and had a lot of manage with our flight cancellation but she showed zero empathy and was simply brushed us away and asked us to come back later to ask, without giving any time or more information. For the amount we paid, we definitely do expect some better service here. Scandic, if you do not want to lose your customers to a better player you have just opposite you, please retrain your staff or maybe reduce your prices.
