Schmuckstück am Wegesrand

Das aussergewöhnlich hochwertige und geschmackvolle Ambiente. Die tolle Aussicht auf den Fjord und die Berge. Das liebevoll gerichtete Frühstück. Die Größe des Zimmers. Den kostenlosen 24/7 heisse Getränke Service

Das gab es nichts.

Beautiful views

The facilities were great; the views were beautiful. They had an excellent breakfast spread as well. It was easy to get into the facilities and the hotel room. Taxis were also easy to get from the location. City center I'd say is walking distance from the location as well.

There wasn't much to do in that exact location (e.g. restaurants or bars). I wish they had some snacks available or more front desk hours for us to buy snacks and beverages. The front desk hours are limited not that we were in our room much.

Can't Recommend ~ If you want a pleasant experience stay elsewhere

Breakfast was great! Beds were comfortable! The view of the ocean was lovely!

The owner was extremely rude on several occasions. She had booked us a taxi on our check out day and came into our room 10 minutes before the taxi was scheduled and demanded the room key, which previously she said to put in the door where it was upon arrival. She did not leave the room until we found the key which was very bizarre. Basically, she was rude, demanding and dishonest.

Wenn wir wieder einmal in Alta besuchen, werden wir wieder hier buchen.

Dieses Gästehaus hat eine wunderschöne, erhöhte Aussichtslage. Der gemütliche Aufenthaltsraum ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und die Kaffeemaschine steht immer bereit. Das reichhaltige Frühstücksbüffet lässt keine Wünsche offen.

I would much rather stay with Siv at Altafjord Gjestegaard than any hotel in town... 100%

The breakfast went WAY beyond expectations! And the host, Siv, is an absolutely wonderful person who personally goes out of her way to ensure that guests are happy and comfortable. And the view from my room.... holy smokes it was amazing. Oh, and the massage chairs are pretty darn excellent.

Most of the TV channels didn't work, and it was a bit of a pain scrolling through the channels to see what worked and what didn't. That said, I wasn't in Alta to watch television. Also, I wish someone would have warned me to rent a car because taxis are not cheap and walking to town can take a while along some busy roads. Next time I will, without question, rent a car... that way I'll also have access to the surrounding hillsides for better views of the northern lights and easy access to other towns.

It doesn't look much from the outside, but it's wonderful inside. It's one of the best hotels l've ever stayed in, and all for a great price. Fantastic views and an excellent breakfast. Thank-you

Very nice design, amazing breakfast, excellent view of the fjord. The bathroom floor heating was a treat! Beds super comfy with very clean linen.

The bathroom has an insufficient ventilation which causes mold buildup.

Stay in Alta

Very cozy and nice apartaments in Alta city. A little bit far form the centre, but the city is quite small, so it is nice place to stay and start a walk around Alta city.

Little bit cold during breakfast, but it is north, so actually it’s normal.

Amazing design, clean and quiet place, rooms —> amazing!!!

Complicated entry to the building, message with instructions without important symbols. Only one shower gel - big tube with approximately 5ml inside (I’m glad that I have my own shower gel).

Very good

The hotel was nicely decorated and spacious. Never saw any staff members which felt a little odd (reception's opening hours were very limited) but they gave us good enough instructions by email so we didn't have any trouble getting into our room. The coffee machine in the lobby was nice as was the view from the breakfast room and lobby.

Parking space is very limited so it gave us a bit of a headache to park our car (chevy suburban). Hotel restaurant wasn't open in September so be prepared to drive or walk 2 km dowtown to get food.

Superb breakfast, charming bedroom, very comfy bed.

Lovely clean comfortable well decorated room. Delightful owner who gave us an incredible breakfast…Anything you could want and more beautifully laid out in a charming room with sea views. We booked very last minute on our way north, easy booking with a code for the door given straight away.. we arrived and letting ourselves in was very easy .. we entered the bedroom to find the bedside lights were on with soft music playing! A lovely warm welcome for us . Thank you !

Unfriendly place

The place was in Alta and there are not so many "Hotels"

The place is more like an (expensive) Youth hostel. The main problems: the rooms are loud, because the road next is busy, the staff is unfriendly, the rooms are dusty and hairs on the floor. Breakfast ended at 9.30 and this means exactly 9.30. Very unfriendly communication by the hotel staff.

Excellent reasonably priced accommodation.

Clean and comfortable. Excellent facilities including a lounge overlooking the fjord and a sauna. Nice décor in breakfast room. Friendly host. Excellent breakfast. On my last day I had to check out early for an early flight but a substantial cold breakfast was provided for me to eat in my room. Bedroom had a view over the fjord - ideal for midnight sun or northern lights.

Nothing really
