“Quite expensive for the value”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 September 2011

My first impression with Rica Karasjok was not that good - apparently my booking made on Rica site was lost, however luckily I was finally given a room with the same rate. Speaking of the prices this was the most expensive hotel on my trip throughout the whole Norway, though it did not provide the highest comfort. The room was a little bit worn out with a metal wobbly tub in the bathroom and no air conditioning. All the basice amenities were there including a wireless internet access available with no charge. The hotel was easy to find and there was also a free car park available for the guests.
Breakfast quality was very good - there was a lot to choose from including local Sami meals.
When paying with a credit card be advised that the hotel authorizes the card with around 10% more than required - the final charge will still match, but you may not have access to the surplus money until a month or so - depends on how your credit card company matches charges & authorizations.

“Good comfortable hotel seems a little overpriced”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 June 2011

The hotel staff are very friendly and the hotel has a good sauna. The restaurant specialises in local sami cuisine (smoked reindeer hearts) and maybe a bit restrictive on food options, the tourist sami cultural centre is located literally next to the hotel. The rooms are small as the hotel is built in the style of a mountain lodge.
Our rate was more than we paid for the Hotel G20 in central Oslo so it seemed a little on the expensive side considering room size and amenities,

“Good hotel, convenient location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2010

person found this review helpful

I stay there regularly, and I'm very satisfied.

The staff is excellent, and the food is good both for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The rooms are spacious and clean with good beds. The gym is rather worn down, but it's sufficient. The sauna is very good.
