Guest reviews for Hotel Hamar
"I really enjoyed talking to the front desk people- Tina was very helpful and they were very kind about trying to get me in early since I was tired. They were able to show me places to go while I waited. I visited some great points of interest on her recommendation. Tina kept encouraging me to stay up for the northern lights even though I was so tired and I’m so glad I did! It was an amazing show!"
