Hotel berhampiran Karambar Lake, Vagan

My visit to Lofoten was solely because of the Northern Lights. As a solo traveler. a central location, inexpensive, safe, clean are the key factors i base on for the hotel search. Fast Hotel’s convenient location, self-check in, are superb. But during my stay, from check-in till the next morning, the entrance door to my room could not be locked at all and i had to go out without locking my room. Till the next morning a young male employee promised to help fixing it. He did. Was and am grateful to him. On the second night, i ended up not searching for northern light but the LIGHT - electricity broke down and internet connection was also down - from before midnight till 01:29. - and the hotel main entrance door, usually remains closed and is to be opened via pin code - now the sensor is not working (it is now 03:45, still not working), making my plan of going out to observe the northern light and coming back to the hotel not possible. Somehow, during the wee hours at the lobby i met someone who works nearby and stays at the same hotel, taught me how to manully open the faulty main entrance glass door (just use hands, with slight force, to manually slide open the glass doors to both sides. It didn’t require much force at all.) While technical hiccups can be rectified, here is my suggestion to the Hotel - please install a light for writing desk. The whole room has only two side table bed lights. No general light for the room at all (there are recessed ceiling lights but switches cannot be found). At the writing desk, a light sauce is a must-have. That said, i still like the hotel a lot because of its location and self-check in, completely without a Reception counter/area - that is wonderful. G reat is also he closeness to the bus terminal (not noisy at all) is pivotal as the buses (running infrequently in Lofoten) are the “lifeline” for those who visit Lofoten without a rented car. As a solo traveller, i will want to come back to this (and/or similar) Fast Hotel. i like it. It is like a trusted friend, sometimes not feeling well, but a friend is a friend.

Good breakfast far beyond expectation with staff very friendly. Location right next to port

We stayed at the Thon hotel for two nights during our July 2022 trip. First, we wrongly went to the other Thon hotel next to it and were advised, we actually booked with Thon hotel Lofoten instead. Once we arrived at the correct hotel, we were pleasantly surprised to receive a room upgrade. We stayed in room 221 which has a paronamic view of the Marina and the mountains. Priceless view! Pro: 1. The breakfast was included and was one of the best breakfast we had! Great variety! Many choices! Delicious food! 2. The Location is superb! Right in the center - next to the Marina where all the excursions are starting! All restaurants are there to pick from. There is a convenient store nearby for drinks and snacks. A Kiwi Supermarkt within 5-10 min walk. 3. There is a parking garage underneath the hotel but it was full when we checked in. Free parking in the center is available between 5 pm - 8 am, so we just did our excursions between those times. Parked our car on the street after 5 pm and it was free until the morning. Never paid for parking during our stay. Con: The only downside of the Room is the bathroom which was very tight. Everything else was superb!

Das Hotel mit Self-Check-in (Code kommt per SMS, hat gut funktioniert) ist schlicht, aber funktional - unser Zimmer hatte einen Duschbereich, in dem das WC stand, etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig, aber es war sauber und ok. Eine große Kühlgefrierkombination im Zimmer gehörte auch zur Ausstattung ... Ohne Klimaanlage wird es in den nicht sehr großen Zimmern schnell warm, aber für uns war es noch ok. Die Lage ist etwas abseits des Hafenzentrums (eine Privatmarina liegt in der Nähe, daher wohl der Name). Das Frühstück war überraschend gut und auswahlreich - für das eher hohe Preisniveau auch auf den Lofoten ist das Hotel durchaus eine Option. Die Holzterrasse vor dem Hotel ist ein Feature für eigene Picknicks, es stehen auch zwei Küchen zur Nutzung zur Verfügung.

自駕羅弗敦羣島，有幸在斯沃爾韋爾住了一晚，這個酒店好像是這裏最好的酒店，就在海邊，樓下景色很漂亮。前台小姐姐熱情服務好也很漂亮，早餐豐盛。房間比較小，不過衞生間設施很齊全，過路睡一晚完全沒有問題。唯一的不足是不能免費停車，需要下載一個app付費。總體來講很不錯的體驗

Aucun charme mais pratique. Si nous n avions pas eu à passer 30 min au fil pour avoir les codes de notre chambre pour accéder j aurais mis une note très bien. Fonctionnel, spacieux, ni beau ni laid, mais efficace et pas cher. Il fait qu ils améliorent les Process. Je viens aujourd’hui de recevoir leurs mails et codes 4 jours après mon départ…
