Great 1 night stay. The rooms are very efficient :) but the stay overall was great. And the breakfast, my goodness, absolutely amazing. Book the place just for the breakfast and the view in the lobby dining area. Would definitely stay again without question.

Nice hotel

Excellent breakfast, also great to have free tea all day. Room was really quiet. Only negatives were leaky shower that sprayed everywhere and broken bathroom door handle but these didn’t affect our enjoyment.

This was our biggest disappointment of our Norway trip. We spent 12 days traveling down from Tromso to Reine. The location was great but the hotel looked like it was falling apart. The sliding door to the patio didn't close. The staff was supposed to send someone but did not. The exterior looked in need of some work. If it wasn't such an expensive hotel, I may have overlooked this but for what you are paying you have better choices in Svolvair.

Huone oli harmillisen pieni ja tummat sävyt teki huoneesta pimeän. Aamiainen hyvä ja aamiaispaikka kiva. Oli mukavaa kun Teslan laturit ilmaiseksi käytössä kunhan oli maksanut parkkimaksun. Sijanti hyvä

A great place to stay in Svolvaer. The staff were very welcoming, and after a delayed flight arriving in the evening it was great to walk in and find an evening buffet available! Breakfast also had a wide range of options and was the perfect way to start the day. The location in Svolvaer is very convenient for everything and being on its own little island is obviously pretty scenic. I'd happily stay here again.
