When I was checking into this hotel and saw My room, I felt I was back into the early seventies when I visited this place as a child. We could not afford any better, and back then the hotel was mid range. Now, its just å place to stay over night, if you dont have any alternativ. And shame on... More

Staying here for business... Older hotel, but very clean & updated. I noticed the most wear in the bathroom but hey, as long as it is clean, I'm OK. :-) Hotel was easy to find... check in was fast & freindly staff at the front desk. Room was large for Europe,and the bed comfy, And finally a tasty, FRESH breakfast... More

The hotel is generally good. Staff are friendly. Breakfast is good. Room is clean and quiet. But the double rooms are not very well planned. The bathroom has a glass door which can not be locked. It opens to both sides. So it is pretty bad on privacy.

We stayed here for 1 night only. In general the hotel is ok if you are passing by but not for a longer stay. The pool are feels dirty and the outdoor pool area was not nice at all. The dinner at at the hotel restaurant was ok. We had mussels and chicken. I would recommend the hotel if passing... More

Rica Hotel (Motel ?) in Hamar is small hotel located outside city. From main road E6 you must turn second road to Hamar on road number 222 (if I remember correct). It is about 5 km to centrum of city and about the same to train station (train station is located almost in the centrum). Room was small but clean,... More

Stayed at this hotel as the hotels in the centre of Hamar were all fully booked. Rica is located in the middle of nowhere, and with taxi (NOK 150+ one way) as the only way to get into the centre. Some of the rooms shows clearly that the last renovation was in the 1970. Like the brown/yellow tiles of the... More

Me, my wife and our 2 year old kid lived here for two nights in May 2010. The price was not low, but lower than you expect for the best hotels in Norway - which is no surprise, because this hotel is really not amongst the best hotels in Norway. There is a free parking lot outside, but if the... More

I stopped here for a few days in July 2010 in the beautiful town of Hamar - ideal for cycling and walking around Lake Mjoso. The Rica hotel is about 4km from the town centre and is based alongside the road from Lillehammer to Oslo - its appearance and rooms are just like a motel in the USA. Due to... More
