Rica Hotel Alta  

central position good breakfast

expensive limited menu in restaurant

Good breakfast buffet, clean with a good location.

Old fashioned complicated TV system lacking tv channels. limited storage facilities for clothes in the rooms.

Excellent starting point for activities such as northern lights safaris, dog sledding trips, etc. Nice room but a bit small. Very good breakfast. Good position at the end of the shopping street. Good view of the new cathedral.

Buffet dinner Sunday evening - boring ready-made cold meats, very little salad dishes or vegetables.

Nothing

Should not be classified as a 4 or 5 star hotel- dismal in comparison to Radisson Blu and comparable hotels- Only redeeming factor was a pleasant front desk staff. I will not stay there again ( and I travel a lot ) nor will I advise any of my friends in the region to stay there. I paid for a superior room which was anything but 'superior'. Over priced for even a 2 star hotel - was advised on arrival that the restaurant was under construction so I had to walk to area restuarants and on a Sunday closings were at 6 pm.

Location.

A bit too pricey vs what they can offer.

- breakfast

- you have to pay for parking after 10:00 am

One of the best in a long time.

We really liked this hotel, we got upgraded to a suite as it was totally full so that was a good start, the suite was really nice with a great view, very spacious, very comfy bed. We ate at the restaurant and our waitress was very friendly, she really went the extra mile helping us with our travel plans by offering ideas on destinations ahead. The food was also good. The breakfast was the best We have ever had in many weeks of travelling. We are really into our cereal and this was superb providing full extent of fruit and nuts sunflower and sesame seeds etc. Wifi worked well. Close to centre of town.

Paying for parking in a hotel in a small town was hard to take but we found this to be the case all over Norway but you still feel like you are ieng ripped off.

1)Checked in, went in the room and beds were undone.. Had to call several times to have my room done.. And my check in was after 6pm 2) went for dinner in the restaurant and chosed a buffet: fruit salad wasstill frozen, coffeefinished and wasen 't replaced, salmon was finished, used dishes weren t taken aeay..

Nice modern hotel at tiny town Alta. Excellent buffet in the morning and in the evening.

Helt ok standard. Kjempebra mat. Bra service.

For varme rom.

Spesielt frokost.

For få tv-kanaler. Savnet sportskanaler. Veggen bak tv var bare preg av hastverksarbeid da den bare var delvis ferdigmalt.

Frokosten

personal er vänlig , hjelpsamt , rum er ren og frukosten var den bäst som jag hatt i en 4 starshotell.

Et flott hotell med hyggelig betjening. Super beliggenhet og en herlig frokost!!

Rom i nyfløyen var meget bra m.altan. Nydelig og delikat frokost og lunsj. Kongressalen var fin m.kjempegode stoler. Ekstra pluss for kaffemaskin utafor kongressalen.

En del støy ifra baren som hørtes opp i fjerde etasje.

Bra rom med fint bad, rent og pent, hyggelig og serviceinnstilt personale, veldig god mat og hyggelig restaurant. Bra beliggenhet sentralt i Alta. + for kort vei til svømmehall og kjøpesenter.

Hyggelig resepsjonistdame.

Jeg hadde booket på internet, men når jeg kom på hotellet hadde de ingen bestilling på meg. Ellers dårlig kapasitet I resepsjonen ved innsjekking.

Likte ikke at jeg ble trekt 10 prosent mer enn avtalt pris

god mat

dårlig mat

Bra frokost

Min bekreftelse fra Booking.com var ikke registrert hos Rica i Alta. Men de ordnet kjapt et rom til meg. På bekreftelsen var prisen kr. 1070,-. Ser på kontoutskriften at jeg har betalt kr. 1170,-. 100 kroner er ingenting å krangle om, men når jeg bestiller rom gjennom Booking.com og får bekreftelse på dette, bør det være registrert hos Rica. Og så bør prisen være det som er avtalt. Ankom hotellet kl. 23.45 trøtt og sliten etter en lang dag med reising. Hvis Rica hadde vært fullbooket, måtte jeg ha ordnet overnatting på et annet hotell. Slik skal det ikke være.

Frokosten

Middag av blandet kvalitet. Eks. fleskefett til fisken var smeltet margarin med backen strimler som ikke var stekt og ikke kokt.

Hotellet ligger sentralt og godt. Man kommer seg raskt rundt i Alta og området. Personalet er hyggelig, og man får god hjelp når det er noe. Frokostbuffeten er imponerende og krever egentlig flere dagers opphold!

Har bodd flere ganger på hotellet, og ting kan vel gå opp og ned. Sammen med en større gruppe har jeg dessverre opplevd en middag som rett og slett må kalles mislykket.

Støy fra baren og utsiden da vi hadde rom over røykeområde ute
