Breakfast was great. Note: not the hotel’s fault, but Parking was less available and more expensive than the Expedia listing showed - but if you use the lot across the street you only have to pay during the daytime and it works out a lot cheaper. The hotel was average. Not a normal problem there: It was very warm in Alta the week we were in town. They have no air conditioning, and so we had to leave the windows open - which meant we could not sleep well due to noise and light (the sun doesn’t set up there). They also have no fans - which is weird, as most places we stayed up there had small fans you could use to move air into the room - but this hotel didn’t. It would behoove them to buy a stock of fans to keep for the odd days when it is warm. The stuff in the area is fairly touristy and expensive but easy enough to find a decent restaurant to walk to.

Scandic hotels are dependable
Typical Scandic Hotel, good location, basic room but comfortable and impeccably clean. The staff were friendly, helpful and competent. And, of course, an excellent buffet breakfast with many options, fresh and cooked.
