Hotel berhampiran Hamnøy Scenic Viewpoint, Moskenes

I stayed with my girlfriend in this small hotel in lovely Reine in August. We were pleasantly surprised by how nice the place is: starting with morning yoga, good self-catering facilities and a bright room facing out to sea. The actual stay was great. However, I left some clothes behind by mistake and have now spent a month trying to get the hotel to send them back to me. It's a series of unanswered mails, messages and calls. This reminds me that when we were going there we also had the experience of not getting replies to our messages. I don't know how a tourist facility can function with such poor communications. Its just a shame that the time there is now a bit spoilt.

Cabins by the water of reconditioned fishermen’s huts are your accommodation in paradise. Best accessed by car, most people come for the hiking and kayaking. Comfortable beds with thick quilts were not required during our stay, but neat little bathrooms with showers and ours had a kitchenette. The hotel had a pretty good restaurant although pricy. The bistro in the square was great and we went three times. Lofoten is one of the most gorgeous places ever. If you can stay in Reine at this Rorbuer.

房間很好很乾淨舒適，餐廳也很舒適氣氛好 飯店人員很好，願意提供許多幫助，我在這裡度過了愉快又輕鬆的三天！

Típica casa noruega en el maravilloso pueblo de Ä. El Chema ni se hace bastante rápido y fácil, después de llegar tarde desde el ferry de Bodo. La casa tiene otras 6o 7 habitaciones, se comparte cocina, baños y salas comunes. Es una casita ideal, bastante buena relación calidad precio.

Ho soggiornato in questo hotel durante un viaggio in solitaria e devo dire che mi ha affascinato per i colori, l'atmosfera e il paesaggio. Soggiornare qui significa soggiornare in un antico borgo di pescatori, fatto tutto di casette rosse sul mare. La struttura comprende un ristorante in cui ho mangiato molto bene. Per chi viaggia in macchina alla scoperta della Isole Lofoten è facile trovare posto per il parcheggio. L'unico appunto, e su questo consiglierei di rimediare, è che, almeno nella stanza in cui ho dormito io (al primo piano dell'edificio in cui c'è anche il ristorante, affacciato sul lato interno) la tenda era troppo ”leggera” per contenere la luce della ”non notte” dell'estate nordica... quindi non era facile dormire. Per il resto personale molto cortese e atmosfera che ripaga ogni possibile fatica, oltre, come detto, al ristorante in cui ho apprezzato molto la qualità dei piatti preparati. Se dovessi consigliarlo ad un amico sicuramente lo farei.

We stayed here last week. We booked for 2 nights but left after one. It's a basic hostel, rather than the ”Rorbuer” it is advertised as on ***********. It's quite scrappy outside with a dark interior (I guess the lights were switched off to save energy?) But it was clean enough. We had a twin room, which was large and tidy. But it was next to one of the two kitchens. The night we stayed, the hostel was very busy with a large groups of friends occupying each of the kitchens. They took over every table and worksurface and were preparing extensive meals using most of the utensils. So there was nowhere for us to prepare our dinner or even to sit down. When we entered either kitchen we were met with stares of surprise that we had trespassed into their ”space” and one woman even told my wife not to use the last remaining saucepan as they needed it for their cooking. The second group simply shut the kitchen door as a sign that this was their ”space”. So much for ”communal spirit”! They occupied both kitchens from 5 pm to 10 pm so we had to go out for dinner and buy from an expensive (though tasty) food van nearby. It was hard to sit in our bedroom as there was constant noise from the kitchen next door and the walls were very thin. I had to read my book with my earplugs in for 2 hours. By 10:15 pm people had left the kitchen and we could breathe a sigh of relief. There was an unused bar area outside where we were able to eat our van food, but nowhere inside to escape from the noise. After one night of this we didn't want to risk a second night, so explained our concerns to the manager and left the next morning. On reflection, I guess we were unlucky to be at Lydersen at a busy time when two large groups had decided to take over the hostel (though this may be a common occurrence in the summer?) The hostel is basic, and the walls very thin, and there are not enough utensils to cope with busy times in the kitchens. It would be great to have a lounge where people can escape when the kitchens are full. The location is good, so my advice would be to go in expecting the worse and you may be lucky to find it quiet or at least occupied by smaller groups/individuals who don't think they own the place.
