  : The view from the bedroom was really good, what a pleasure to just sit there and watch the sea, the boats and mountains by the window every morning and evening. How about the breakfast! Likely the best breakfast buffet I've ever had in a hotel. There was so much choice! Even I as a vegan didn't know what to pick anymore. There seemed to also be many glutenfree options. I'm honestly very impressed by the breakfast, especially considering it's only a 3-stars hotel. The breakfast area was also very spacious, so even at rush hour it didn't feel too hectic or crowded. Finally, the staff was great and helpful when we needed anything! This seems to be the norm in Scandic hotels and in my opinion that makes this chain quite reliable and always makes me want to book Scandic again. (I swear they are not paying me to write this, I've just had multiple very good experiences with them, their service just always seems impeccable to me).
  : Our shower's temperature fluctuated a lot, which was of course not very pleasant. Our bedroom was the first one in the hallway next to the dinner area, and the wall between that area and our room wasn't very thick: from our bed during dinner time we could follow all the conversation of the people eating on the other side of the wall. Both these issues were reported to the staff, so hopefully they will do something about it!

  : Good and complete breakfast, good room and good sea view near the port. There is no boat/ferry noise in the room. I hadn't booked the room with balcony because it cost more, but I had it. I think the room has been upgraded, absolutely welcome.
  : Bathroom air fan bad and too slow, but it's always on without press any button without produce noise.

  : The room was comfy, delicious breakfast and a great sea view if you book a room with a balcony.
  : Be cautious if you are staying with a pet. I booked a room mentioning specifically I am coming with a dog, even sent a message via booking chat to ask if anything is needed. For what I only got a reply from someone of the Scandic personnel that pet comes with a fee and that is it. And once we arrived, I was surprised to be informed that there is no information recorded anywhere that I we have a dog and the room we booked is not suitable for it. I was told that booking.com has not passed any info, though I am not sure how is this correct if I sent a message and someone from the hotel itself has acknowledged it. Nevertheless, we were given the room we booked at the end as there was nothing else. But the starting experience was unpleasant, standing there at reception for 10-15 min and waiting for any clarification.

  : The location was walkable to everything in the town of Svolvaer. Very good buffet breakfast with a lot of selection/choice including gluten free.
