FURU Hostel & Café features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Bøstad. Among the various facilities of this property are a bar and ski storage space. There is a barbecue and guests can make use of free WiFi and free private parking. Full disclosure - I was here in very low season and was the only guest for the majority of my stay. The hostel is lovely, and the coziness was even more welcome in the dark winter days. Everything was clean and well organised, and the beds are comfortable. Bathrooms are large (could do with a small shelf in the shower to put your soap/shampoo/etc on when you're in there). Location is gorgeous, the sauna and icy cold plunge were perfect, and if the aurora borealis is up and the sky is clear the view is outstanding. The staff and volunteers are super friendly. This time of year it was a perfect spot to relax and do some of the short walks close by in the limited daylight hours.

The Harbour House, dorm and twin, selfservice hostel is offering accommodation in Ballstad. Free WiFi is available and private parking can be arranged at an extra charge.

Guests at the hostel will be able to enjoy activities in and around Ballstad, like hiking. Fantastic location, view is amazing, met some amazing people. I very strongly suggest walking down the street to rent a car as public transportation isn’t available on some days.
