Séjour au Best Western
Pros:

L'emplacement est magnifique en bout de terre avec une vue à 360°.
Le personnel est au petit soin pour les clients. Check-in et out hyper rapide

Cons:

L'hôtel aurait besoin de rénovations mais je pense que cela fait aussi partie de son charme le côté "ancien et un peu désuet ".

Pros:

Hotel w klimatycznym starym budynku niedaleko plaża. Dobry na pierwszą lub ostatnią noc w drodze na lub z lofotów. Dobre śniadanie

Cons:

W okolicy nie ma nic, więc bez dobrej pogody pozostaje tylko siedzieć w pokoju.
289 koron od osoby za kolację: otrzymaliśmy znośną zupę, puree ziemniaczane, ugotowane warzywa, sałatkę, ciasto i coś co miało przypominać rybę - cienki płat w panierce tak grubej i twardej ze nie dało sie tego zjeść, pozostali goście również zostawiali to coś na talerzu.
W pokoju działał tylko jeden kontakt, reszta byla dla ozdoby, na korytarzu kawa i herbata ale gorąca woda tylko w barze, dobrze że bezpłatna

Mukava kohde
Pros:

Erittäin ystävällinen palvelu, perinteikäs paikka.

Cons:

Huoneen varustelu todella minimaalinen, extra tyynyt ja vesilasit puuttuivat.

Yksi huonoimmista yöpymisistä koskaan ja hinta huomioiden ei todellakaan rahalle vastinetta!
Pros:

Aamiainen oli ok.

Cons:

Sänky huono ja natiseva joka käännöksellä, patja kuopalla. Varmasti hometta ilmassa, sillä haisi epäilyttävälle ja oli tuotu erillisiä pattereita huoneeseen. Eteinen oli kuin varasto! Myös piha-alue huonosti hoidettu.

Great stay.
Pros:

Just off E10 on the way to EVE airport. Simple but clean , serves the purposes. Breakfast has warm and cold choices. It’s pretty good at this price. The surrounding views are good.

Cons:

Outside needs some maintenance works.

Excellent location on the way from Narvik airport to the Lofoten islands
Pros:

Great location, half an hour drive from Narvik airport on the way to the Lofoten islands.
Sandtorgholmen is a lovely set of historic buildings located on the water’s edge. The bedrooms in the main building are cozy, like a ship’s cabin with great views over the water.

Cons:

Both dinner and breakfast are served on a “help yourself” buffet style. Limited options for dinner (one meat and one vegan choice).

Disappointing stay in what could have been a nice place.
Pros:

Good location for the airport, only 30 minute drive. Pleasant setting by the fjord. Satisfactory breakfast buffet.

Cons:

We were expecting more having booked a quite expensive junior suite. It was a large room but the bed was two singles pushed together near the wall. There was a strange mix of antique and cheap plastic furniture. Nothing to make the room look inviting and no glasses provided in the bathroom. The bath was a roll top with only a hand-held shower. Overall look was dated which was a shame as the building was an old traditional manor house which could be very nice with some money spent on it. Very average buffet dinner, although not expensive.
