Pros:

Posizione strategica come punto d'appoggio per l'aeroporto. C'è la possibilità di cenare a buffet in struttura. Dovendo partire presto ci hanno dato due box con la colazione da asporto.

Cons:

La struttura principale è un po' vecchia, tutta di legno, poco insonorizzata e nella nostra camera c'erano spifferi dalle finestre. Va bene giusto per una notte.

Pros:

Essen als Buffet direkt im Hotel-Restaurant, recht günstig.
Frühstücksbuffet sehr gut - im Preis enthalten.
Hotel-Restaurant genial (ehemaliges Lagerhaus)
Allerdings trotz akuter Glätte nirgends geräumt oder gestreut - würde man bei einem Hotel der gehobenen Klasse eigentlich erwarten können. Von der Gefahr, sich bei einem Sturz zu verletzen einmal ganz abgesehen!

Confort en ambiente auténtico y ubicación fantástica
Pros:

Nuestra habitación era suite ejecutivo vista mar; era como retroceder al siglo XIX y vivir la historia de la casa. Una inmersión en el tiempo con todo el confort.
Buen desayuno en un espacio muy acogedor con vistas al mar.
Llegamos tarde y nos dejaron las llaves e indicaciones en recepción.

Better than we imagined.
Pros:

We loved our stay here and it truly exceeded our expectations. The hotel has such a charming old, antique feel while still being very clean and thoughtfully updated. It felt full of character without sacrificing comfort.

Our room was spotless, and the bathroom in particular was pristine with a fantastic shower. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and we really appreciated the details throughout the space. There was a great blow dryer and mirrors both in the bathroom and in the main room, which is such a small thing but makes a big difference when traveling with your partner.

One of our favorite parts was the setting. It felt remote and peaceful, and looking out our window we were basically right over the water. It was quiet, scenic, and so relaxing.
We would absolutely stay here again.

Cons:

Would loved to have more breakfast options for vegetarians - like waffles or other baked goods.

Un bon point de chute près de l'aéroport pour qui commence son séjour aux Lofoten !
Pros:

Le lieu était très calme, la chambre agréable et vaste, l'accueil chaleureux du personnel, les facilités de parking. Le chauffage au sol dans la salle de bains était très appréciable.

Cons:

Le petit-déjeuner pourrait être plus varié.
