Breakfast was fantastic! Ocean view with walk out was great. Nice shower.

Michael United States of America

What a beautiful hotel! We were very impressed with the location and stay. The breakfast was outstanding and truly worth the price paid. We stayed in a room with a balcony and used it both evenings to relax and watch ships coming in to dock.

Erin United States of America

Location was perfect in the center of Svolvær, no more than a 10 minute walk from anywhere in town. Staff were very nice and helpful with all of my questions on recommendations on activities, restaurants, and transportation. One was able to recommend a rental car service, which I initially didn't have planned, but it worked out really great. Breakfast was phenomenal, with plenty of options for everyone. Room had a nice view over the bay.

Really nice hotel in a great location in Svolvaer. Staff were very friendly and helpful in every way. Breakfast was by far the best I had during my week long trip to Lofoten. Would definitely recommend staying here.
