We flew to Alta in order to drive to the North Cape.
We told the hotel we would be late arriving ( 22:00 ) and it was no trouble at all.

Reception is on the 3rd floor, which is a little confusing at first.
Views from the rooms are good and there is a terrace on the 4th floor.
Excellent breakfast - juices, cereals, bacon & eggs, bread, coffee, tea - I cannot believe that anyone would not find anything they liked. It is also included in the price ( which was cheaper than our comparable hotel in Tromso ).

There is no bar but drinks are sold at Reception.

Parking is in a reserved part of the town car park 15m away ( the hotel provides you with a pass ).

Highly recommended.

We stayed here for four nights on a trip to the Arctic to look for the Northern Lights. The hotel was great - very central to the town (which is no great shakes, it has to be said) wiht free internet access from a machine in the lobby. The hotel didnt' have fluffy white bathrobes and upmarket stuff in the en suite....what it did have was full board. In Norway, where everything is eye-wateringly expensive (Bill Bryson's joke, I admit) the provision of sliced chees,es cold meat, DIY waffles, home made soup, fantastic bread and lots of jams, pickles etc was wonderful. Breakfast was help yourself, then it was put out again at lunch then from 8 to 10 in the evening. This meant we actually had enough money to have a six pound pint in the nice little bar next door. And the hotel people were really helpful, phoning taxis, offering advice etc. And did we see the Northern Lights? Yes, thanks to the excellent advice from the lady in tourist information we hired a car from Rent-a-wreck (sounds awful but the man was helpful and reliable and the car was good condition and very reasonably priced), drove out along the E6 in the darkness, found a layby and watched the best display we have ever seen. We also took the car out to the Ice hotel - not to stay (what are we - made of money?) but to admire ...it was unexpectedly beautiful. All in all, a very good break, made better by the food at the Park Hotell.

This was an excellent hotel. The location is ideal and is within short walking distance of anywhere a tourist would need to go, such as the tourist info centre, the bus station and places to eat.

The rooms were very comfortable and clean and I cannot find any fault with them. A nice touch was the battery/plastic recycling bins! Internet acces is free which over a week makes for a nice little saving.

The buffet breakfast was typical of a scandanavian hotel and consisted of cold meats, cheeses, fruits, jams etc and more types of tea/coffee than you could shake a stick at. A nice bonus is that tea/coffee and waffles are available ALL day and a basic buffet meal is available in the evening, which is a huge bonus considering the price of local food!

The staff were wonderful. When one of the receptionists was leaving to go home and saw us waiting outside for a taxi to the airport, she called up to cancel the taxi and gave us a lift herself! Nothing more needs to be said!

Had a great time in the Park Hotell:
Staff really helpful and friendly - willing to help with stuff outside official job remit (eg spoke to hire company for us when our taxi didn't arrive).
Rooms very spacious and comfortable.
Breakfast and light evening meal high standard.
Waffles and coffee available all day, mmm!
Convenient location (most hotels in Alta fairly central, but Vica bit further out).
Has sauna and internet available.
Makes an effort with environmental issues (eg recycling bin in rooms).
Highly recommended!
