Liked: Room comfort
We stayed one night and it was good, clean and nearby to shopping.
The hotel rooms are not large but are very clean modern and convenient.
Plenty of common area space with ample seating, there is a large conference room.
Plenty of parking and Tesla EV recharging stations. Grocery Store at the ground floor has hot and frozen food options.
Cafe is on the second floor. OnSite Coffee machine makes very strong coffee.
Sometimes requests were taken care of quickly but other times fell on deaf ears, without any type of response.
Conveniently located next to shopping mall with grocery stores.
Good hotel in a good spot to go to Trollstigen! Nice, clean, centrally located.
Check in/out could be smoother like scanning a QR code instead of having to look up booking references. You have to type in all booking references if you book more than one room using the same name.
Nice stay in this hotel. It is very basic, but common areas are cozy and coffee is free with self serve. Place has no breakfast, so ESSO gas station is the best option for this. Price was high compared to other places we visited in Norway, maybe because Åndalsnes might having a low hotel room capability?
Nice view to the mountains from our room 😃
Fantastic property and completely self-serviced. Good for shorter stays. Beautiful view of the river outside from the window. 10 min walk to town center and attractions. No food or dining options but the Esso fuel station near by serves waffles, baked items and nice varieties of coffee for breakfast.
The check in process was tedious, the machine did not work. After trying almost an hour I tried calling hotels.com which did not recognized the itenary number. So I was stuck with not being able to talk to an operator or person. Anyhow, alnost after 2 hours we Finally received help and got the rooms. The rooms very very nice with a good view. However, try ti stay away from rooms 1, 2 and3 as illmanned people tend to gather there laste at night and early in the morning, disturbing your sleep and stay. The staff was very very nice and helpful, when available.
The unmanned check in worked seamlessly. The room was small but clean and comfortable. Unfortunately the coffee machine in the common area was not working and there are no facilities in the rooms themselves. I’d recommend though based on the value. The views from the room were also great!
Terrible check-in experience. I didn’t receive an SMS to my international number with pin to open the main door. It took about an hour to receive that information from the property by email after numerous calls to Expedia support, Expedia did a great job and even found for me an alternative hotel because the agent was unable to reach out to the property manager while was calling to all available numbers and sending the emails. The contact number that I found close to the self-check-in screen was switched off. The brand new room was perfectly clean and comfortable for a one night stay. The property is located next to the gas station and it’s about 15-20 min from the train station. The hotel was pretty expensive and it wasn’t worth it considering the location and lake of customer support onsite or at least a help line available after 8pm.
It should be priced like a hostel. Instead for one night we paid $ 270.00.
The “hotel” is situated on the third floor of a sad shopping mall outside town next to a large gas station and an RV and bus storage. Too far from the train station to walk.
Our room was small and lacked most of the basic amenities one expects from a hotel. No desk, no luggage rack, no kettle no coffee machine. It is advertised with AC, but there are no controls in the rooms. Fortunately we could open a window, but then we heard engines revving up all night. The TV does not have apps or Chrome-cast and the only channels are in Norwegian. In a new brand new place?
No way to make coffee or tea. The coffee machine is in the common room, and we were supposed to find pods for it in the room but there were none. For coffee one must go to the gas station next door.
What else would one expect? A decent shower and a good bed.
Well, the shower drain was not working properly so to avoid a flood we had to shower with a trickle, and the bed was
the cheapest and most uncomfortable we ever experienced in a Scandinavian country. So soft that it was hard to turn.
The place is not staffed at all and so there is no security. At night I went into the common room looking for at least a kettle, and found a guy sitting there that gave me a weird vibe. I went back in the morning and he was still there asleep on the sofa. If you want to pay to sleep with the homeless this is the place for you.
This hotel was quite an experience as checking in and out is done in a terminal. No person in sight. The hotel is on a third floor, part of a nice shopping mall.
We had a lovely stay for 2 nights and it served our needs very well. The check in was chaotic - being told to expect an sms with room details etc only to receive the sms 36 hours later !!! - but once in everything was fine.
If the check in does not work well - and others checking in also had problems - for goodness sake have someone to hand easily.
