DD13928****Absolutely loved this hotel! The surroundings are incredibly photogenic, and the aurora often appears right on the mountain top across from the hotel. I even asked the front desk for aurora viewing recommendations, and they suggested a small church hill and by the pier. But honestly, you can just watch it from right outside the hotel. Otherwise, you'd have to head towards the city outskirts, and the two places they recommended weren't great, especially the small church – it was too cluttered with trees and rooftops. Plus, the hotel's lobby offers free 24-hour hot water, tea, and coffee, which is a huge bonus! I'm not sure if my room got an upgrade, but it felt much larger than I expected. The hotel has two floors, and the only downside is no elevator. So, it's best to pack your luggage strategically. If you're on the second floor, just take a few essentials up, and you can store your suitcase at the front desk. Of course, when checking in, if you're on the second floor, a staff member will help you with your bags, but you'll have to carry them down yourself when checking out. The hotel is about 600 meters from the pier and several large supermarkets, making shopping and getting around convenient. The parking lot is also spacious. All in all, fantastic value for money! (The aurora was visible above the red house in the third photo).
OongavinWe stayed at Eliassen Rorbuer and chose the oceanfront superior cottage. The location of the resort is beautiful, peaceful, and well-situated. It’s easy to see why it was featured by Lonely Planet.
That said, the oceanfront balcony area is also accessible to everyone, not just guests staying in the oceanfront units. So if you are cost-conscious, I would actually recommend choosing the non-oceanfront rooms, as you still get to enjoy the same views and access.
The stay itself was comfortable and relaxing. The resort is eco-friendly, so do note that they do not provide amenities such as toothbrush, toothpaste, or slippers. They also do not provide cleaning / housekeeping services during your stay. The overall environment is natural, quiet, and lovely.
Breakfast is too simple given the rate.
Overall, it’s a beautiful and peaceful place. You can easily catch the aurora at the resort.
RRRRogerrrThe bed was very comfortable, the room was clean, and the breakfast was incredibly rich. The location is especially good, right by the harbor, and only a five-minute walk to the city center. The surrounding scenery is beautiful, making it the perfect choice for accommodation in Lofoten.
TTravelifeJoThe hostel offers some conveniences but overall, I would rate it 3/5. Its location is a major advantage, with a shopping center and supermarket just a 5-minute walk away, making it easy to access essentials.
However, the experience was marred by several issues. The hostel was difficult to find due to the lack of clear signage, which was frustrating upon arrival. Additionally, the noise insulation was very poor—I could hear footsteps and movement from upstairs throughout the night, which severely impacted my sleep and caused insomnia.
While the hostel has potential, these issues need to be addressed to improve the overall experience. It’s a suitable choice for budget travelers prioritizing convenience, but light sleepers may want to consider other options.
GGaryLee0530Overall, a 10/10 experience! There are several free parking lots nearby, and the hotel provides a complimentary breakfast which was quite good in taste and quality – definitely recommended. The hotel staff were also very nice. The only inconvenience for me was that the hotel doesn't have an elevator, and I had two large suitcases to carry.
BBee_❤️I stayed at Svinøya Rorbuer recently, and honestly, it was such a beautiful experience. Our cabin had the perfect view for catching the northern lights — we literally just looked out of the window and there they were, dancing above us. Pure magic.
The cabin itself was spotless and felt really cosy. One of the heaters wasn’t working at first, but the team came over and sorted it immediately, which I really appreciated. Fast, friendly service makes all the difference, especially in the cold!
Overall, a lovely stay. I’d happily go back in a heartbeat.
DDayazhouI extended my stay by one night.
**Room:** For the first night, I was in a duplex room where the upstairs and downstairs shared a living room and kitchen. On the second night, I moved to a one-bedroom suite complete with a living room and kitchen.
**Cleanliness:** Good.
**Breakfast:** Plentiful.
**Facilities:** The room for my first night was on the ground floor, which was convenient. However, my room for the second night was on the third floor with no elevator, making it quite a struggle with large luggage. The upside was a balcony with a fantastic view!
SSupawutf you’re looking for a great place to stay, I highly recommend From the moment you arrive, you’ll be welcomed with warm hospitality and excellent service. The rooms are spacious, clean, and well-equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay
GGuest UserThey went to this hotel on the road to Lofoten.
Hotel New (even not on google street maps at that time), parking near it is paid (as everywhere in the city).
The town is small and the hotel was unexpectedly good. A great restaurant with delicious breakfasts, a cozy room with a comfortable bed, a view.
