Good spot in Tromso
The Scandic is a good hotel. Location is good, it’s right downtown and close to most excursion stops. The rooms are a little small- the hotel is supposed to look like a ship and the rooms felt like cruise cabins. The cruise terminal docks right outside the hotel so that area can get crowded. Breakfast is big and it’s nice. But it’s a little chaotic with very little direction.

The hotel location is great, super close to all the activities, most buses stops right in front of the hotel. Breakfast was ok but not amazing, dinner buffet was not good. Staff was not very helpful, we could not check in early and hotel was not able to let us know when the room was ready. I lost my kindle in the hotel, also I immediately rang the hotel, nobody could help me until the next day, and sadly they did not find my kindle. It is such a shame because the hotel is in an amazing place but they need a management refresh.

The staff was exceptional. The only reason for the 4 star under staff and service is because of the restaurant menu. The buffet was very good, but rather expensive. The regular a la carte menu was lacking in choices. Having said that, the items we did try were very good.

We had a great view on the water and it was amazing. The buffet is amazing and it is a good way to try norwegian food: fishcake, meatballs, paté, herring, salmon… if you have a chance to talk to the Chef, please do! He was full of info on Norwegian food and traditions! Everything is close by in Tromso, but we did use public transit with the app. And the restaurant back section offers a good view on the Pust Spa where you see some people dipping in the water :-). — we went and I was glad the hotel was close by!
