Tie Malangeen ihan järkky kunnossa Lofooteilla tul
Pros:

Ihanat sängyt, suihkusta puuttui lattialasta, koko tila kastuu kun käyt suihkussa.
Roskiksia ei ollut rakennuksen ulko alueella missään. Vain isot jäteastiat, mitkä kai tarkoitettu mökeille

Pros:

3bed house was a great choice. Wonderful waterfront views. Parking and charging was very easy and right by the property we had. No wifi but 5g worked fine. Remote, rural location. The restaurant at the property is good but nothing else for miles. We self catered in part.

Bærer preg av manglende vedlikehold.
Pros:

Hotellet er klassifisert som fire stjernes og er ganske så dyrt. Vi leide leilighet med 2 soverom og synes det mildt sagt er overpriset. Mye
bærer preg av lite vedlikehold og er slitent. Alt for dårlige møbler i leiligheten samt på balkongen. Lekkasje i varmtvannsbereder bl.a.

Virker heller ikke innbydende fra utsiden. Ikke en blomst å se noen plasser. Stort forbedringspotensiale. Frokosten var grei.

Juhannusyön unelma
Pros:

Hotelli oli todella kauniilla paikalla lumihuippuisten vuorten ympäröimänä vuonon rannalla. Hotellihuoneen suurista, koko seinän leveydellä olevista ikkunoista oli mahtavaa seurata juhannuksen valoisaa yötöntä yötä. Näimme ikkunasta myös vuonossa uivia delfiinejä.

Kylpyläpalvelut olivat pettymys, kun ulkoporeamme olisi pitänyt vuokrata yksityiskäyttöön, ja hinta kahdelle halvimmillaan 170 €. Saunaan ja poreisiin ei ollut yleisiä vuoroja ollenkaan. Ravintola oli Norjan hintoja ajatellen keskihintainen. Aamiainen oli runsas ja hyvä.

Täyden kympin hotelli!
Pros:

Mahtava hotelli kuvankauniilla maisemalla. Puhdas, siisti huone, mukavat tyynyt ja peitot. Hyvää ruokaa illallisella, loistava aamiainen. Sauna ja jäämeressä pulahtaminen kruunasivat reissun.

Skuffelse
Pros:

Fikk en fantastisk fint rom, men vi hadde gledet oss å spise i restauranten. Når vi sjekket inn fikk vi vite at på grunn av en bryllupsfeiring kunne vi kun spise inne i puben med en bregrenset meny, pizza burger eller laks. Når plan va å spise reinsdyr og kreps så blir det en stor nedtur å få burger😕 hadde vi bare fått beskjed om det på forhånd så hadde det vært greit. Flere gjester klagde også.

Pros:

Average. Nothing special.
Amazing surrounding and great landscape. Hospitality and guest relations absent.
Limited menu.
Polite staff but lack of empathy.
Ordered steak and fries but there’s no fries, instead you’ll have THREE potatoes wedges.
No induction of the property.
Located 1 hour and 20 min from airport by car.
Nearest shop is at 2 hours walking distance or 10 min by car.
No option for take away items from the bar restaurant to your room.
No help with luggage.
Sent a message to the reception prior arrival mentioning my partners birthday and asked to organizing something special and never received a response, had to ask the waiter for a celebration plate after the meal in front of my partner.
Asked to cancel an excursion booked less than 2 hours before due to sickness and been denied as would charged me anyway.
No shop inside the resort.
Overpriced for what offers.

Pros:

Outdated property. No wifi, no tv besides 3 Norwegian stations. Temperature in unit was either freezing or 30 degrees Fahrenheit Far from all activies besides premium priced resort activities.Restaurant overpriced with small portions. Rented premium 3 bedroom sea view for 14 days, only stayed 5 and rebooked another hotel in Tromso. Resort would not give refund, blamed tv and wifi on "owner" of the cabin.

I would not recommend to anyone. It was a horrible experience with staff smiling at me while they insulted me telling me i should enjoy nature while only having a few hours of daylight, or telling me to learn Norwegian to watch the 3 available channels, and suggesting i should read a book. Didn't even have a smart tv to cast to, though without wifi probably did not matter.

Felt like i was back in the 70's with this outdated property. Do yourself a favor and book elsewhere.

Pros:

It is the only restaurant around so you are eating every meal there. Given the remoteness, I think the hotel can do better at offer more services (yoga, art related things, etc.).

Pros:

Incredible pace in a spectacular natural setting, about 1.25 hours from Tromso. Our fjord front cabin was spectacular- each day and night we woke to breathtaking views ( traveled in winter.). We saw the northern lights from our multiple balconies and the large windows in our unit. Everything was beautifully appointed. It is, however in a remote area tucked amidst mountains and fjords.! If you go, note there are no stores or on premise food purchase options except the restaurant. Also, it is not possible by Norwegian ABC laws to have a social or class of wine outside of the main hotel. BYOB, snacks and other provisions from Tromso ior elsewhere! It is a perfect and magical getaway! Thank you to the resort staff for making our stay truly memorable!

Pros:

The views were 5 star but the Premium Cabin was not. As each cabin is privately owned the furnishings and extras are not uniform. We had basic cheap furniture, one pillow each, only 3 basic tv channels all in Norwegian and no Netflix or subscription channels. No board games, books or even a pack of cards. As the weather was terrible we literally had nothing to do. All our booked activities were cancelled. Which is not the resort's fault. But the lack of any alternate activities was not good enough. The resort did not provide us with anything to do. They did not answer the phone and only communicated by email. I don't think the cabin we were given deserves a Premium tag. Breakfast was also average given the price. We were very disappointed and left a day early. We are still trying to get Expedia to reply to our requests for a partial refund. We flew from Australia for what we thought would be an amazing resort but were quite underwhelmed. We know the weather is beyond anyone's control but to be sitting in a 3 star cabin after paying top dollar for a premium cabin and with absolutely nothing to do was just so disappointing.
