Scandic Kirkenes

Although we did not stay at this hotel, we were impressed with their hospitality as they allowed us to store our luggage while we stayed at the Snow Hotel nearby. They graciously offered to let us use their saunas, bathrooms, lounge area, and coffee bar even though we were not paying guests. This generosity deserves a positive review. The rooms appear clean and the restaurant seemed bustling. If you are in need of accommodations in the area, it is definitely worth checking out this place!

When we were scheduled to stay at the Snow Hotel for the night, our travel agency instructed us to bring our luggage to Rica and leave it there overnight. We were then picked up and transported from Rica to the Snow Hotel later that evening. Upon arrival, we checked in our bags at their secured room and the woman at the front desk kindly offered us the use of their sauna and lounge. Despite not being paying guests yet, they graciously extended this hospitality to us. They also provided helpful information about our transportation arrangements for the following day. The lounge had a large super-automatic coffee machine and comfortable couches. Although I did not see the rooms or stay overnight, I would consider staying at Rica if I ever return to Kirkenes, based on the excellent treatment we received during our brief visit.

The service at check-in and personal was great. it was surprising that the dinner was advertised, but the hotel then booked the entire restaurant for a group that did not stay in the hotel. I wanted to go to another place that was closed.

Beautiful hotel very well maintained. ideal location with Joker warehouse over the street. very good breakfast with many vegetarian dresses. offer of free coffee at the reception is heavenly when it came from icey cold outingsm had a big talk with benjamin.

Near aurora fishing area. 10 minutes to walk to the promenade.
