Enjoyed the stay
This is a nice hotel, as long as you realize that the location is fairly isolated. Specifically, there is only one other restaurant within walking distance and it's a 10-minute cab ride to museums and downtown. We had all of our breakfasts at the hotel was well as several dinners and all were good. Bar has limited hours but the front desk has a limited selection of bottled beer. If the weather is good, recommend taking advantage of the beautiful back deck.

Disliked: Staff & service
The check-in experience was ok, except 'I'll give nice view' ended up with no view at all. The room temperature was barely 68F (20.1C). When I asked for help from the female receptionist, her first reaction was to why I complained, but she eventually promised to contact maintenance. The floor of the room is freezing. Breakfast was excellent. The Hotel restaurant has a nice view of the fjord, clean, great location for my needs. Comparing other Scandic experiences I have, this one was above average. At the end of the day, it is all about the people.
