I had a wonderful stay in one of these cabins. They are renovated inside, clean, spaceous, and they have a wonderful view. It is tough to get to, but if you go to the Lofotens you want to see the south end anyhow. Eliassen Rorbuer is an excellent starting point for your Lofoten travels. It is affordable, comfortable, and NOTHING... More

Very friendly welcoming. Owners are obliging and provide good tips to make the stay better! The cabin is just perfect, and its location even more (right in front of the fjord). Strongly recommended. More

Super nice and uncomplicated place to stay. Excellent for groups of friends. Also possibility of guided hikes with amazing guides. Good kitchen with everything you need. Cozy living rooms and an amazing view on the water and mountains. We had a great party with the guys renting out the place. We had a blast! More

We stayed here for three nights. When the sun shines it is simply gorgeous, but there is zero to do if it rains! The cabins have no TV or radio, either. At the end of the season (i.e. mid-August onwards) a lot of places shut, so museums and even restaurants have finished. Getting a cup of coffee whilst out touring... More

We stayed in a rorbu for 4 nights in July 2011. The site is just wonderful : one of the most beautiful places in the Lofoten : with the fjord at your feet and the montains just as background. The cabins have been well renovated : do not expect to be in a luxury villa, but if you expect to... More

The location of the cabins is really not to top and it's very quiet here. The cabins are nicely refurbished and provide everything you need, for example a good equipped kitchen (although we don't like to cook when on holiday, we were forced sometimes, as all over Lofoten it lacks of nice restaurants...). The staff is nice and helpful and... More

Dear guests, as mentioned in previous respond all our Rorbuer have received brand new and comfortable matrasses in early 2011. Additionaly they do have cover mattresses to keep the main ones clean. They are in fact very thin, so it will be easier to change them for cleaning. We hope the sleeping comfort after changes is satisfactory to all our... More

Hamnøy is 5 km from Reine which is good because it is calm and quite from the more popular Reine. Not far from the rorbuer, there is shop that sells fresh seafood and a killer salmon sandwich in Sakrisøy. The cabin is so cute, we stayed in Reiderbua which does not have a direct view but you can see the... More
