Lovely cute place which is not too commercial. Great place to do a northern light run, Go for a smaller tour size of 7-8 ppl instead of 50 sized. First its very safe even if you are going solo and also you have a more personal discussion with the group and also much more personalized attention to see the stars and the northern lights.

I came for the museums and some quiet relaxation, and got plenty of that! Lovely town with good food and lovely people. The weather in June was grand... nice during the day, cooler at night. A fan was all I needed to be cool enough to sleep. The local taxi company got me around town with ease, though their is a bus I never tried out. I sadly do not speak any Norwegian, and I was able to get around with ease.

Alta is a town that is difficult to reach in winter, so it is good to make reservations as late as possible to get a refund without penalty. Accommodation owners and tour operators will take your money and not refund you even if you prove that you didn't arrive in Alta due to weather (cancelled planes or planes that were unable to land).

Be sure to p pick the right time of year.
Be sure to p pick the right time of year. The summer season is very short and several museums and other places close at the end of August. September we found to be relatively fine as well as October. We found that some places were closed whether this was because of the end of season or still related to Covid is/was uncertain.
Alta Museum and its rock drawings and other Sami history is very interesting and informative. The Northern Lights (Nordlys) Cathedral stands dominant in the centre of town and well worth a visit. Obviously at this particular tie of year the Northern Lights are always a possibility.

There are many grocery shops some of which are very large.
There are many grocery shops some of which are very large. We could find gluten free food
The views of the mountains and bay are very nice when it’s sunny
The rock carvings museum is definitely a place to visit
I recommend the Vanvitting Grill for the excellent raindeer burger with strawberry sauce
We got an upgrade to a cottage with a kitchen and it was very beautiful. It was clean and comfortable, and tastefully decorated. We had dinner at the restaurant both nights and the food was good although quite expensive. It is a cosy hotel and we really loved our stay overall. There is a Mexican lady at the restaurant and she is very warm and kind. She went above and beyond to make sure we are eating well at breakfast. There is also a Philippino gentleman who is very helpful. The other staff were also courteous and friendly.
Johnny was amazing! He thought of every little thing to make us enjoy our stay. The cabin was beautiful, and we saw a spectacular Northern lights show. The sleigh ride was perfect....I love the Norweigen Fjord horse...Timion. We were able to get close and pet him. Everything about the stay was exceptional, hot tub, homemade breakfast, nature hikes...absolutely competes with the Grande Hotel, Oslo. Flatmoen Natur has better service by far! Can't wait to come back!
The location, surrounded by nature (but easy-to-drive road from Alta) was very scenic. The wi-fi worked well, The room had character. THere is convenient food available for many hours starting in the late afternoon. This was a buffet of three casseroles (we liked all three, so that was good), with good bread. Beer etc. available. Silent at night.
Honestly, it was my first time to Alta and 30 seconds into my stay the staff made me feel welcome. The breakfast was generous, the hotel was clean, quiet, and additional information was very available. I could not have felt more at home. Walking around the town was grand, and taxis were easy to call & get to take you all over.
Great experience staying in the ice hotel. We stayed in the basic ice rooms since they were much cheaper and you can visit the carved rooms before 8pm. Food was lovely in the Laavu restaurant and breakfast was also very nice. Sleeping bags for the ice hotel were cosy and warm which made for a comfortable sleep.
Beautiful modern lodge a short ride outside of Alta with breathtaking mountain views. Outdoor warm jacuzzi and indoor sauna was very enjoyable. Kitchen well equipped and rooms were clean and well furnished with towels and bedding. Communication with the host was great - would love to be back soon.
This place is SO GOOD. We stayed in some very fancy Alta accommodation which was great, but we absolutely LOVED our nights at Alta River Camping. The photos do not do the place justice. It is so cute, AMAZING value for money, great location and SO FUN! One of the best places we stayed on our trip.
Good location close but outside Alta. Nice cabin. Very friendly and helpful staff member. He did his best to allow for the heating of my car during the night (-20 C). The are only a few electricity plugs on the camp side and wire extension was necessary to reach these due to the snow.
Amazing location, food and staff. The breakfast was fantastic. The views from the room were stunning. Unfortunately it was cloudy, so we didn't see the Aurora, but if it was clear, we would have had the best view. Warm and cozy. The dinner was expensive, but worth every penny.
Everything excellent! A most enjoyable establishment. The more expensive hotels of the city centre of Alta surely succumb to the fine details, satisfying landscape view and excellent standard of this one! Ten rooms (I believe), two nice lounges and varied options at breakfast!
Incredible view and fantastic location. We really loved the drive to and from the house. Very cozy place, and nice setup. Overall great spot, we just wish we could have spent more time in Alta. Very accommodating and responsive owner.
Location was good, easy to find close to restaurants and the Cathedral of Northern Lights right in front. Staff friendly and helpful. Rooms were nice, beds comfy. Best breakfast spread we have seen in our travels through Norway!
Lovely property with really nice staff and an amazing restaurant. Had a walk through the husky dog yard and a walk down to the Alta River - all on the property - and a memorable and very high quality restaurant experience.
Staff were friendly and helpful. Hotel was beautiful and warm. We had everything we needed and more! Loved the fact that staff would come into the dining rooms, lounge to alert of any northern lights activity!
Amazing hotel, very nice environment and welcoming staff. Many activities with dogs are offered. I hiked with the dogs and a guide, it was great. I recommend ! The dinners are also exceptional.
The Scandic Hotel in Alta was the best Hotel I have ever been. Everyone was so friendly. The breakfast was perfect. If I ever come back, then I choose the Scandic Hotel.
Great hotel, excellent staff in a very good position. Hotel is Connected to a shopping mall and Restaurant so If its cold you dont even need jackets. Breakfast is super!
Nice breakfast. Perfect service at the reception. Hotel provided early check-in once room was available, which was very nice. Perfect location. Good internet connection.
