We stayed here the night before we boarded the Hurtigruten from the Kirkenes Hurtigrutekai, and when we left the airport when we arrived, half the shuttle bus into town was going to the Thon and half was going to the Scandic! In all of these small towns across the coast of Norway have a Scandic and a Thon hotel! We initially booked at the Scandic but changed to the Thon last minute because we decided it might be a better option. We were dropped off outside of the hotel which was set right on the water, just a short walk to the main drag of Kirkenes. We walked into the hotel which was which was charmingly designed, very modern and cozy. Check-in was fast and easy, and the hotel room was nice and very clean! The bed was ridiculously comfortable, super soft, but we had a view of the town rather than the water, which would have been preferable. We went to breakfast in the morning and it was absolutely phenomenal. This was the first of many amazing hotel breakfasts we would experience on this trip and we were so impressed! The selection was phenomenal and the restaurant was set away from the lobby by huge windows looking out on the water. The food was great and it was a wonderful experience. This was a great hotel and though I haven't stayed at the Scandic, I would recommend this hotel if you're ever in Kirkenes — and it was just a 10 minute walk from the Hurtigruten dock.
Rooms are simple but clean, that is all what I need and whay I expect from a low budget hotel. It is in a good position nearby the shopping center and restaurants (the hotel has also a restaurant). What I really appreciate is the kindness of the staff. They were really nice and welcoming!
Kirkenes Norway disappointment. While the property seems cool - no one explained it to us just pointed to the restaurant beyond the hotel - the rest of the experience was extremely lacking. We booked the tour and dinner. We needed to wait for all the people checking in to get keys, understand the bathrooms,showers,lights,etc before our hotel tour. No one offered us water,drink,anything. We seemed to be a nuisance. The tour was very unique but it was pretty much self guided. Thankfully we weren’t staying there. After we couldn’t sit down in The “overnight guests only lounge” so they sat us early at 6:50 (only ones in dining room) for dinner. We ordered around 7:15 - our desert selection for the 3 course meal - no other choices. 1st course served about 7:50. Main served at 8:20 when they asked if we wanted a taxi instead of our 8:45 shuttle so we didn’t need to rush. They then proceeded to serve pretty much everyone else dessert first as they were leaving for a tour. Our taxis were to arrive at 9. One did. The other came at 9:25. Leaving the hotel at 5pm - arriving back at 9:40 was way too long for this marginal dinner experience.
