spent the weekend at this hotel, and must say that i was over all very pleased with the total experience. Central as can be i supose in such a small city as Ålesund. Lookout spot at aksla is not far from the hotel and is higly recommended on a sunny day! breakfast was ok, and rooms where clean and up... more

The best thing about this hotel is the location, which I think is among the best in the city. We were lucky, I think, to get a very spacious corner front room overlooking the street in front. The breakfast one morning (early) was good and the other morning was poor (late and weekend) as there were practically nothing to eat... more

This is a reasonably priced hotel right in the centre of Alesund. My room was a bit basic, lacking good finishing touches. It overlooked an office block/apartments on the other side of the road. I couldn't sleep with the window open because of road noise. The road wasn't busy but it was cobbled so every passing car was noisy! The... more

I booked a superior room and got an attic room which was quite big, but with uninspired decor and NO view. Unless standing on the tip of your toe trying to look out. Based on the room I was assigned I would not recommend this hotel to a friend. Other rooms might be better. Otherwise, I agree with the other... more

Having already 4 stamps from previous stays in RICA hotels on our RICA Feriepass, we were entitled to get a free night in the next hotel, being Scandinavie in Alesund. We would stay there 3 nights. To our bewilderment we were booked in a very small attic room without any view, which clearly shows the risk of getting a room... more

I stayed at this hotel for two nights. I booked through the Rica website and got a more favourable rate than booking through one of the hotel booking websites. My room was comfortable and pleasant, and the hotel is fairly well located, but without a view. The breakfast was very nice. Hotels in Norway are very expensive (as is everything)... more

While it's a couple of minutes away from the picturesque harbour, the Scandinavie is still in a central location in this small charming town. This grand hotel is one of the art nouveau buildings that rose from the ashes of Ålesund's great fire of 1905 and still has most of the original features in the public areas. One of the... more

This hotel is located very centrally in this small enough town - just a few minutes walk from the harbour where we landed. It's walking distance from everything! The staff were friendly & helpful, and the hotel itself was lovely. Our room was a really good size and very comfortable - we had a sitting area (sofa, coffee table, a... more

This is just a lovely art nouveau hotel built in 1905 after a fire raced through this small city built on Atlantic Coast islands. We were upgraded to an attractive junior suite .which was huge after lots of smallish Norwegian hotel rooms. The public rooms - especially the gorgeous art nouveau dining room- are very nice - and the hotel... more
