Hotel Dengan Spa di Nordland, Norway

The enterance is not the best, through a shopping mall. Carpet is old, and should have bin replaced. There should be more than one person in the reseption. Too long time checkin, and other. Bedroom was a little short. I had almost to crowle over bed to get to the desk. But Refrigerator in the room coms very handy.

Abbiamo soggiornato una notte in uno dei Rorbu affacciati sul mare e tutto è’ stato perfetto. Check-in alle 15 in un pomeriggio invernale sotto la neve. Cottage comodo e pulito, con un soggiorno a completo affaccio sul mare sul porticato privato. La vista da sola vale il soggiorno. Cucina attrezzata. 2 camere comode. Solo il bagno ci ha un po’ deluso ma il resto lo fa ampiamente dimenticare. Il posto e’ incantevole, uno dei più belli delle Lofoten. Abbiamo usato anche la SPA (a pagamento). Piccolina ma ad uso privato per 1.30h con sauna e hot tube con viste pazzesche. Un posto dove piacerebbe tornare.

We stayed at the Wivel Hotel for 8 nights using it as a base for ski touring. We found the staff all very helpful and friendly throughout our stay. The hotel itself is warm and welcoming, I would say the bedrooms are on the small side If sharing a room, perfect if not, bathrooms are modern and well equipped. Breakfasts are a combination of a hot dish cooked to order from the menu and a well set out buffet. Hot drinks are available near the reception all day. The Bistro restaurant downstairs and accessed directly from the Hotel is quite exceptional, great food beautifully presented, we dined there all week. The local ski centre is easily accessed via the ski bus and the opportunities for ski touring in the area are excellent, hire car needed for that. Would I go back, absolutely.

My wife and I stayed at Solsiden Brygge for 4 nights in May, 2024 as a home-base for exploring the Lofoten Islands. The location was centrally located, never had to drive further than an hour within the area. We stayed in the Standard 1-Bedroom Apartment (H15) and the room was the perfect size for 2 people. The oven and stove were broken so we told the front desk and they provided a temporary fix that night, and then fully fixed it the next day for us. The breakfast buffet was available from 8am - 10am each day and there was a wide variety of food choices. The hotel was really quiet and peaceful and we really enjoyed our stay.

Wonderful staff , upscale facility, delicious food. Perfect place to stay in the heart of the city. The included dinner and breakfast had a large range of items and all of good quality. There is no private parking but easy to find on the street, free from the evening til 8 in the morning I believe. Will stay there again.

Otelin konumu ve manzarası harika fakat personelin ilgisizliği ve yardım sever olmayışı hoşuma gitmedi, bu otelde kalırsanız hazır olmanız gereken konular şunlar, kabinlerde her gün temizlik yok havlu değişimi yok, akşam otelde yemek yeriz derseniz her zaman olmaya bilir çünkü otel dışarıdan bir rezervasyon aldığında misafirlerini unutabiliyor, dışarıda yemeğinizi yedikten sonra otele girmenizi tavsiye ederim, hafta sonları kahvaltı sepeti veriliyor ve odanızda oendiniz hazırlıyorsunuz bu da hoşuma gitmedi, tatile geliyorsam ve bir ücret ödüyorsam bunun karşılığını almak isterim. bu yüzden maalesef otelin yıldızlarından kesmek zorunda kaldım. Otel yönetiminin bu değerlendirmeyi dikkate alacağını umuyorum.

Abbiamo soggiornato in questa struttura per 2 notti durante il nostro viaggio in norvegia. Hotel molto grazioso situato nel centro del paese ed a pochi passi da alcuni ristoranti e dal porto da cui partono le escursioni per l'avvistamento delle balene. Recentemente ristrutturato, la nostra stanza era una junior suite al secondo piano con balcone; pulita, ampia, molto confortevole, moderna; bagno arredato con gusto. Molto gentile e disponibile tutto il personale; malgrado la chiusura della reception ad un orario antecedente il nostro arrivo, abbiamo comunque trovato qualcuno ad attenderci (erano le 22.30) pur avendo ricevuto comunque tutte le istruzioni necessarie per accedere. Ottima anche la colazione. Assolutamente consigliato.

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.
