“WOW - book it! Love the athmosphere!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 September 2011

people found this review helpful

Beautiful hotel in the middle of the city - and such lovely rooms - spaciuos and nice view (especially if you book a deluxe room with view - gorgeous!) All rooms are newly renovated - in fact they are still finsihing the the last rooms this week I was told. The rooms have a nice, dark wooden flooring and are decorated mainly in black and white and with a lovely touch of another color on a small carpet and pillows. My room - room608 even had a balcony and a nice view of the fjords. Breakfast area is next to the reception and you enjoy a nice and peaceful breakfast in calm sorrundings. Staff very helpful and service minded - nothing was a proble. Will definately come back and encourage all other travellers to book an upgraded room gere,

“Nice hotel in Norwegian fjords at Alesund”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 August 2011

If you want to discover Norwegian fjords and planned round trip to Norwegian cities, you will stay in one of the northern cities, such as Alesund. Our hotel is suited near the Atlantic Ocean. I liked the inner designs of the guest rooms and the restaurant. Also the staff are so kind and helpful to us.

“A bit disappointing”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 June 2011

people found this review helpful

Had one night here on a round trip through Norway, summer 2009. Hotel looks like a design hotel, but the room was on the small side. Windows stuck or could not properly been opened. No wardrobe to put your things in, had to leave everything in the cases and bags. Breakfast was very good.
In our case parking was free (weekend!).
Would not recommend. Sorry.

Dear Traveller

Thanks for your review. We are very geatful for your comments in order to improve.

I am sorry to read that our hotel disappointed you when you stayed with us in 2009. The renovated rooms from 09, are small in size, but I can proudly inform that the entire hotel is now renovated and that we offer a lot of different room categories and sizes - and all rooms have wardrobes and shelves. Regarding the windows that you can not open fully, this is due to security reasons, and by asking the staff it is actually possible for us to open the lock for the guests that would like more air. Sorry for not informing you of this at check in.
Glad you liked the breakfast.

If you get the chance to visit Ålesund again, please contact us, and I believe you will be surprised over how the hotel has developed in a positive way.

All the best

They play classy music perfet for relaxing in the bar. The breakfast is also nothing to complain about. I have been to this hotel many times and will still use this one when I go back to Ålesund agian.

Thanks for your comments regarding First Hotel Atlantica.
I am glad you liked the location of the hotel, og the other hand I am very sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with your stay with us.

Regarding the rate you are referring to, that was due to high occupancy in the city of Ålesund and the same with parking. After 4 p.m until 09.a,m and in the weekends it is free parking in the streets and just around the corner we have two parkinghouses. I am sorry of you were not informed by front office staff.

When it comes to the hotel, we are under renovation, and as you probably saw, we have renovated the lobby, restaurant, conference area and some of the bedrooms. The rest of the hotel will be renovated this winter, and I believe it will be a fantastic hotel when we are finished.

Again I am very sorry for your impression of us, and if you ever come to Ålesund again, please contact the manager for a great deal and an upgrade.

Thanks for the comments,

All the best
