Scandic is opening its first hotel in Nuremberg, Bavaria's second largest metropolitan area. The opening is an important step in the company's expansion in Germany. The newly renovated hotel with its 311 rooms and meeting spaces for up to 800 people has been profiled as a Scandic hotel since the takeover from Pandox.
