Hotel is located in an excellent location, close to the tourist information center, the Mount Askla and the ferry terminals.
The airport bus from the airport stop directly in front of the hotel, so will be very convenient for travelers arriving /departing by air.
There are also many restaurants and a small shopping mall nearby.
Was assigned a room facing west, so could have a great view of the sunset from the room.
Nice hotel , great breakfast , comfy beds , very central . Unfortunately any good ruined by the reception I received I arrived after long trip on Hurtigruten late at night and expected a friendly reception, when I arrived he said , not hello , not welcome but : ' does your brother smoke ?' I said I didn't know He said ' because I have seen him smoking cigarettes outside and they look like joints . You saw me outside when you arrived , I was looking at cigarette butts on the street to check if they were joints' I asked what time was breakfast , he wouldn't tell me he said , all info is written in that paper in the room key I told him he should say welcome instead of acting like police and accusing of crimes Naturally my brother was not smoking joints outside the hotel they were self rolled cigarettes All other staff members lovely normal friendly Everything else good in the hotel Who is this weird guy who was on reception? It's not the way to welcome guests (not a cheap hotel either) I was treated far better by every other Norwegian I met , he's not a good ambassador for the country or the hotel . Strange guy . Ruined the trip.
We came back again, 5 years later, to reexperience this wonderful hotel and setting and just to sit in the lobby by the fire. Very special hotel, we loved the city, the location, the meals, the yoga class and gym. We were signed up for the baths but our luggage didn't make it in time.
Nel nostro viaggio in Norvegia abbiamo soggiornato in diversi hotel della catena Thon. Posteggio disponibile gratuitamente proprio fuori dall'hotel. La struttura dista soltanto 10/15 minuti dal punto panoramico di Alesund e dal centro cittadino. La camera era semplice ma funzionale. Pulizia impeccabile. Staff cortese. Colazione veramente di livello con ampia scelta e possibilità di trovare alimenti compatibili con le diverse intolleranze alimentari.
