The Scandic Hamar is a very clean hotel and they offer a good breakfast buffet. The beds were comfortable and the rooms well appointed. What was not so good was the staff and their attitude toward guests. They were not friendly, did not smile or offer a welcoming word. In most interactions, they seemed almost annoyed to be bothered by have to check in guests, answer questions or service the breakfast buffet. I could chalk this up to the standoff-ish Norwegian personality, but even so, they should think about how they treat guests from outside Norway.

the location is great near shopping centre and walkable to the main town by the waterside. staff are friendly and helpful. breakfast was excellent too. downside was room lacks of basic facilities like kettle and no telephone to contact reception if you need something. also no free park on site but was easy enough to park and pay. good for an overnight stay.

Nice hotel, tiny rooms
Hotel is quite new and always very clean. Staff is amazing and very polite. Just a couple of things I faced: 1. The rooms are tiny and have little to no amenities (not even a phone to call reception) and 2.The front desk person didn't want to exchange USD for local currency with no reasonable explanation. This was very inconvenient and disappointing.

Stayed for one night for work. Hotel needs a bit of a tidying up. It felt tired and not the usual standard of other scandic hotels. Good sleep, breakfast OK. Didn’t spoil my stay but wouldn’t rush back.

The a/c in the room wasn’t working and the window would only open a couple of inches… so we roasted the entire night. When we complained they said the only thing they could do was loan us a fan. The fan did nothing to cool the room down!

Ok for one night
We knew about the work that was happening at the hotel, so we were expecting it to a certain degree. But the amount of work that was going on was a bit surprising. Several sections on floor we had our room on were covered in plastic, and we were not expecting such a mess on the floors where guests were staying. The bathroom was also a bit dusty, but nothing too bad. The room was ok! We were told that the workers would start at 8 the next morning, but at 7.23 they were at it, and RIGHT outside our window. The woman at the desk was very nice and helpful!

A friendly and nice hotel at Hamar, in the neighborhood of the Olympic Arena (Vikingskipet), and with a very nice museum park or area (Domkirkeodden). Excellent breakfast solution, actually the best we saw in our 1 week hotel trip this Summer :-)
