What guests think

At Home Hotel Arcticus, travellers highlight a scenic waterfront location near the center, friendly staff, and solid value with a very good breakfast and an included, simple evening meal that many find convenient after busy days.

Rooms are generally comfortable, though several reviews note dated decor, occasional cold or stuffy temperatures, limited window opening or interior-facing layouts, and that standard rooms lack a fridge. Cleanliness is usually good, though a few guests reported poor dusting, uncollected trash, or stained carpets. Guests appreciate the gym and sauna with sea views, while parking is nearby but limited or not free on-site. Expect a friendly, scenic stay with strong location perks and variable room quality.

Var bare ei natt. Rommet vi var tiltenkt var ikke klart da vi kom, men dette ble ordnet ved at vi fikk ett annet rom som var klart, ett stort og fint rom. Parkering like i nærheten, Eneste minus var at det var for lite bord til frokosten slik at det ble litt ventetid. Vi ble derfor tilbudt å ta med maten til ett konferanserom like i nærheten, så var problemet løst.

Perfekt opphold. Hadde familierom med unge på 13. Rent rom og regulerbar varme på rommet. Godt utstyrt og flott treningsrom med badstu. Nydelig tacobuffet til kveldsmat. Kunne stått fremme kaffe i lobbyen fra kl 9 men fikk i 11 tiden kaffe. Nydelig og variert frokost. Alle fornøyde. Kommer gjerne tilbake.

Breakfast and dinner were included, both simple but enough to satisfy me. A tour group had breakfast and they ate most of the food, staff wasn't quick enough to replenish them. My room was dark, there were at least 5 lamps in the room which I had to turn on most of them. Laundry (washer & dryer) was 50kr total. Free parking weekends only.

This hotel is right on the water and had an incredible view. The breakfast buffet is really good and had several options (including gluten free). The only reason for not choosing 5 stars is because the rooms are very dated and there isn’t free parking on the property.

Sehr gutes Hotel in perfekter Lage direkt am Wasser. Unser Zimmer hatte einen schönen Meerblick, was den Aufenthalt wirklich besonders gemacht hat. Das Zimmer war sauber und komfortabel, das Personal freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das inkludierte Abendbuffet ist nett gemeint, aber eher einfach gehalten und kann man problemlos auslassen, wenn man etwas Besonderes essen möchte. Beim Parken sollte man wissen, dass das Hotel ein paar eigene Parkplätze hat, diese aber etwa fünf Minuten zu Fuss entfernt liegen. Insgesamt ein sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt mit gutem Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.

Ligger fint ved vannet men ganske slitt hotell. Kunne ikke åpne vinduet i 7.etj så klaustrofobisk. Tenker en varm sommer der må bli innestengt. Tynne billige senger. Frokost starter kl 8 på lørdag. Veldig sent når i hverdager den starter 7. 7.30 hadde vært bedre.
