The location of the property was really great - we could walk to everything we wanted to see. Unfortunately we had to park a few blocks away from the hotel but that was really the only downside. The room was very spacious and the front desk staff was very nice and helpful.

Great hotel. Right near so many restaurants, stores, markets, and bowling. The hotel’s breakfast buffet was absolutely amazing. My husband is a vegetarian and they had fruit, vegetables, tons of varieties of granola and breads. It was the perfect start to our day!

Amazing!

A completely lovely stay in every way! The rooms are beautiful, and sparkling clean. The hotel feels luxurious and the staff is so super friendly and helpful in every way. The breakfast was absolutely amazing and the hostesses a wonder of kindness and service. We are so happy with our stay and can’t praise it enough.

Parking was full so despite being disabled we had to unload at the door and park offsite at extra cost. Pet rooms weren’t available but we were given a room on the top floor. We had a small balcony so were able to leave that open to keep room cool. We had a fridge, good beds and pillows.

Summer at Scandic City Hotel

We were comfortable during our stay at Scandic City Hotel in Fredrikstad. The hotel was clean. Our room was large enough. Clean sheets and towels. And we were provided with a small refrigerator to store our food/drinks. This is a plus! However, parking located around 300 meters from the hotel was quiet expensive.

Friendly staff, good location however quite a lot of street noice when we get a room toward Nygaten. Room was quite small and it was difficult to get around the bed to the one side (30cm) . But the reason for relatively poor rating was that the bathroom was extremely small. It was not possible for s person of normal height to sit straight at the toilet. Very good breakfast though

Meget God service og hyggelig personale! Nydelig mat og sentralt beliggenhet! Men kanten på servanten var plassert 0,5 cm fra kanten på WC, slik at man må ha ekstremt tynn og myk kropp for å få plass der. Om du fikk plass, måtte man sitte 90-grader i rygg, konstant, null sjans for bevegelser! Rett å slett dårlig plassering av servant i forhold til wc Renslig hotell!
