Reviews for Hotel Viking
Mrs rose Micallef
Worst hotel I’ve ever stayed firstly wrong room then the next room they gave us no working toilet total disaster

Not worth the extremely high nightly cost
$500/night for a room with a rattling a/c, a bathroom so small that you had to stand between the toilet and tub to close the door. The tub and tile on the wall were stained. Above the door were two black marks that looked like mold. The wall behind the door was stained. The mirror hanging on the door was peeling. And, the door was damaged at the bottom. Also, nothing against dog friendly hotels, but when you see clumps of dog hair on and around the lobby furniture, something needs to be done. We made our concerns known to the staff and all they said was they could put us in another room. We declined because we believed they all were the same. Needless to say, we won't be booking any more future getaways at the Hotel Viking.

Disappointing hotel
Run down rooms, air conditioning not working almost $600 for an after 4:00 check-in. Better to Stay 1/2 mile down the road in Middleton at the Marriott residence inn!

Peaceful and Inviting
Hotel Viking completely exceeded my expectations. From the warm welcome by the valet to every detail of my stay, the experience was truly five-star. My room was spotless and full of charm, and the room service was absolutely delicious. I can’t wait to return!

We got married at Kay Chapel and had our reception at the Hotel Viking in December. The entire event was everything that I hoped it would be! The Hotel Viking is traditional, outstanding and eloquent. Our reception was in the Bellevue Ballroom and everything was beautiful. The staff was exceptional! They were there for us throughout the evening and paid such close attention to all of the guests! The hotel service was also outstanding. I am delighted to give the Hotel Viking the highest of reviews.
