Arrived late but greeted with kindness. The young lady at the counter advised me that parking past 8am needed a parking fee and she came clear outside to help me purchase the parking pass! So incredibly nice! We were exhausted and slept well with our door open to the water. The view was stunning. Thank you

Unpleasant experience
Posted May 23, 2023 on HotelsPlease advise foreign travelers to pay the parking fee upfront or they will get a parking fine . When we arrived the hotel, the staff told us no need to pay after 17:00, but not memtion to pay at 8 oclock in the morning the next day in advance. We double confirmed the staff if we can pay when we depart, the staff said yes. HOWEVER, we received a NOK660 fine at 9:45AM. And then the morning staff said this is the way their city charge (pay upfront), and it is the car owner's responsibility.
We have been traveled 14 days so far, none of the cities or downtown parking asked us to pay in advance, they all ask to pay parking fee afterwards. Molde sentrum had the opposite policy. Foreign travelers need to be advised.

Dear Kuang-Yuan.Thank you for writing about your hotel-experience at Scandic Seilet in Molde.We are terrible sorry that the issue about the parking effected your stay in a major way. I was going to explain how the parking-rules is at the property, but you gave a good summary already. I am very confident in my colleagues that they do their best to give the right information, but sometimes it is nice to give a reminder for quality check purposes.Best regardsSindre and Team Seilet

Nice property but obviously visited at the wrong time. Elevated was broken. Hotel lounge/bar was not open anytime during the stay.

We stayed one night for our journey to the Atlantic Ocean Road. The lodging was nice and had a lovely view of the fjord. I like the wide variety of tasty breakfast options offered in the morning, especially the juice shots made just that morning. Upon check-in, I was told that parking was free until 8:00 AM the following morning, but the front desk staff neglected to tell me that I either needed to pay before 8:00 AM or remove my vehicle. This was the one negative aspect of the parking situation. As in other Scandinavian nations, I thought I would pay at the exit, but instead I was given a ticket for 660 NOK. When I called the municipal parking Molde enforcement, they firmly informed me that I had to pay the fine because it was the Norwegian law. They don't care about or give North American tourists any thought. I could only pay the fine using the SWIFT bank account information provided on the parking fine ticket because I rented my car from Denmark. They make it too tough for tourists, and parking is typically very expansive and challenging to find throughout Scandinavian countries.

Overpriced, paid offsite parking, no AC
Posted Jun. 3, 2022 on HotelsI wouldn’t ever stay here again. I stayed here along my road trip throughout Norway. I only booked rooms a couple days ahead of time. I arrived after midnight and was exhausted from hiking and being ln the road all day. There were two gentleman who checked me in and they weren’t that friendly. He explained to that my room was in the old building, it was up stairs, down and halfway and up more stairs. That alone made me want to walk out. I asked if there were any rooms in the new building and he said no. The way he talked to me and his expressions made me feel like I wasn’t good enough to stay there. It’s not even that nice of a hotel to treat people like that.
He didn’t mention anything about parking, and on this site, it says self parking, so I assumed I could just park at the hotel. No, he comes out and tells me I can’t park there, which I appreciate but had he told me when I checked in, he could have saved his steps. Between the paid parking and my hotel room, it was a bit of a hike.
The room did not have air conditioning as advertised, maybe this lucky enough to stay in the new building, but I was so hot all night and was sweating while trying to get ready in the morning, even with a window open. The bathroom door shut on its own so I had to prop it open and there were stains on the dressers.
The old building should be given at a discount for half off. It’s an outrage they sell it for as much as they do.
I had better breakfasts in 3 star hotels.

Dear Daniele,
thank you for your visit and for your review. I am sorry to read that your visit was not a pleasure.
Our hotel is a complex combining two buildings, the Seilet and the new building, where you stayed. If you have preferences about your room location, a comment in the booking will almost always get our attention and we do our utmost to meet wishes we know about :)
I do apologize that the room was too warm to be comfortable. We will note that down.
Very happy my colleague came out to help you with the right parking spot to safe you a fee. We understand it is not always easy to follow the Norwegian signs on the public parking lot.
We wish you a wonderful summer!
Best regards,
Scandic Seilet
