The environment is clean and tidy, and the self-service kitchen can solve the dining problem. It is located close to the bus station, opposite the city hall and gas station, next to a free parking lot, and there are two or three convenience stores nearby. The location is good and the price is moderate.

Most enjoyable two night stay with super staff - both at check-in with Marcus and all those working in the restaurant. The harbour location is really quiet and well off the main road. Charming rorbu fishermen's cottage (this is not a 3/4 star standard hotel so you should do a little research in advance as to facilities). Strong wi-fi and looking out on the harbour from our cottage was idyllic. The restaurant, separately housed, was equally impressive in all respects and for evening meals do not even consider Ballstad town, stay home and eat ”in.” Ambience, cuisine and service was very good indeed. Thanks to all.

Favorite · From inside it looks much more attractive than from outside. Beautiful, large room with great views over the port. Quiet. Very good, full breakfast, great musli, great bread, delicious marmelade etc. etc. North lights we could see directly in front of the hotel :) Sufficient parking in front of the house. Good location, Even if the village was quite out of the second season (September). Not liked · On the first night we received a false statement about the hotel (a few steps away), which then had not opened until 22:00 because of the secondary season but at 20:00: 50 no food anymore offered (as an alternative there was only the long open supermarket (mega nice cashma) next to the restaurant or in Leknes (13 km away)

My very first experience with glamping was memorable. The view was extraordinary, the room was big enough and we had almost everything we needed there. The bed was made from a special wood, that smelled like forest the entire stay. Notice that the bathroom is 50m away from the room. The few steps you have to do back to the room after shower/toilet can be freezing in case of cold or rainy weather. Some dish soap and a sponge to clean the cutlery would be great to have at the glamping.

We loved the service and food at this hotel. Location is secluded and beautiful. Much more quiet than the town of Reine. For a hotel that is under the Small Luxury Hotel Group, we were surprised that the mattresses were so soft. In fact, it is the softest mattress I've ever slept on (and I stay at 20 hotels a year). For people who are visiting Lofoten for hiking, a soft mattress can ruin a hike. It ruined my hike as the soft mattress gave me a sore back. Food: Breakfast was delicious, with a beautiful view of the water. Dinner - also delicious, but portions for some dishes were puny (such as the langoustine - only one langoustine per serving) and the chicken thigh was the size of a forefinger. Service: efficient and responsive.

We stayed here last week. We booked for 2 nights but left after one. It's a basic hostel, rather than the ”Rorbuer” it is advertised as on ***********. It's quite scrappy outside with a dark interior (I guess the lights were switched off to save energy?) But it was clean enough. We had a twin room, which was large and tidy. But it was next to one of the two kitchens. The night we stayed, the hostel was very busy with a large groups of friends occupying each of the kitchens. They took over every table and worksurface and were preparing extensive meals using most of the utensils. So there was nowhere for us to prepare our dinner or even to sit down. When we entered either kitchen we were met with stares of surprise that we had trespassed into their ”space” and one woman even told my wife not to use the last remaining saucepan as they needed it for their cooking. The second group simply shut the kitchen door as a sign that this was their ”space”. So much for ”communal spirit”! They occupied both kitchens from 5 pm to 10 pm so we had to go out for dinner and buy from an expensive (though tasty) food van nearby. It was hard to sit in our bedroom as there was constant noise from the kitchen next door and the walls were very thin. I had to read my book with my earplugs in for 2 hours. By 10:15 pm people had left the kitchen and we could breathe a sigh of relief. There was an unused bar area outside where we were able to eat our van food, but nowhere inside to escape from the noise. After one night of this we didn't want to risk a second night, so explained our concerns to the manager and left the next morning. On reflection, I guess we were unlucky to be at Lydersen at a busy time when two large groups had decided to take over the hostel (though this may be a common occurrence in the summer?) The hostel is basic, and the walls very thin, and there are not enough utensils to cope with busy times in the kitchens. It would be great to have a lounge where people can escape when the kitchens are full. The location is good, so my advice would be to go in expecting the worse and you may be lucky to find it quiet or at least occupied by smaller groups/individuals who don't think they own the place.
