My first impressions driving up to the hotel was not very exiting. But the building grew on me the closer i got. Parking is free and on the left back left side of the entrance of the hotel. I must say the lobby, restaurant and room was really nice! When the elevator door opened on the 5th floor there was... More

Namsos is a typical small Norwegian town located quite far away from everything. Probably not a place which takes your breath away, but their new hotel, the "Rica Rock" does. I have stayed there at 3 different occasions in september, october and november, and really think they have deserved to receive another good Tripadvisor review; and this time from me.... More

Celebrating a birthday, we brought 20 friends and family to dinner at the hotel restaurant. We did not sleep at the hotel. Service was swift and friendly, food was good and prices were reasonable. Beautiful view of the fjord from the restaurant, as the whole hotel is in the best possible location of town. Interiors and design are completely and... More

Norwegians don't really market their travel services well and this Rica Hotel was the only spot I could find for my trip up the north coast. Turns out there are lots of Hytter campground cabins available on hwy 17 but I'm glad I spent the extra money and experienced the Rock City Hotel. The place is dedicated to Norwegian Rock... More

Don't be frightened by the locals' description of guitar shaped beds and extreme rock and roll decor. There really isn't much along those lines. Our room had a picture of a guitar imbedded in the desk top, nothing else. And it was a large room by Norway standards with a huge bathroom. It's a new hotel so everything works and... More

The room was very comfortable, with good beds and big toilet, and the breakfast was excellent, with the delicious fishes from Norway. The rock and roll theme was very cool, also. Great surprise for such a small city.

Already at the reception, the staff was perfectly helpful. The room on the eighth floor was great. Finally, the breakfast buffet was abundant, and also here the staff were highly service-minded.

Clean rooms, good beds, in a hotel with very good location. Restaurant a bit understaffed, but they were all very friendly and accommodating.
