    complimentary breakfast
    absence of air conditioning

    The hotel was conveniently located near the

    bus station, making it easy to explore Alta. The complimentary breakfast was delicious but very busy. On one occasion, the staff prepared a take-out breakfast for my early bus, which I appreciated. A downside was the absence of air conditioning, making it quite warm at night.

    extensive breakfast
    lacking air conditioning
    inaccessible sauna

    Extensive breakfast with vegan options available.

    Unfortunately, my experience was marred by several issues. The room had no air conditioning or even a fan, which made for uncomfortable nights as the temperature was quite warm during my stay. the sauna and pool were located in another building with restricted hours, making it difficult to use during my time there.

    fresh breakfasts
    friendly staff
    tricky parking
    unwanted fine

    Breakfast was a standout, with fresh salads and a generous array of options, even for those on vegan diets. The staff were genuinely friendly, turning a burnt waffle mishap into a delightful table delivery of a fresh one. What a treat!

    Unfortunately, parking is a bit tricky—a city machine ticket overlooked at check-in led to an unwanted parking fine.

    While the hotel boasts a great breakfast, the parking situation is confusing and can lead to hefty fines, as it doesn't belong to the hotel and isn't clearly communicated at check-in. the rooms often suffer from noise due to insufficient insulation, which could make for a restless night. On top of that, check-in delays are reported frequently, which can be frustrating especially after a long day of travel.

    small room

    I had a fantastic stay with comfy beds and a great breakfast selection, but the room was quite small for a family. I'd definitely come back!

    superb breakfast
    friendly staff
    room cleanliness

    The location right in front of the stunning Cathedral of Northern Lights adds a magical charm! ! The breakfast was superb, with plenty of options that satisfied everyone's cravings (especially loved the fresh fruit selection! ).

    A little more attention to detail in room cleaning would enhance the experience.
