The Hotel where I stayed was in Svolvaer and different to the Best Western Hotel shown in the photo on TripAdvisor. I stayed there for 3 nights this year, for bed and breakfast, in the middle of winter. I found the hotel to be clean, modern, and staffed by friendly and helpful people. There is no-one in the Reception area from 11pm until 7am - so arriving at 10.45pm from the local express boat from Bodo, unwittingly I just made it in time. Otherwise I would have been stuck out in the snow!
The Hotel is in the middle of Svolvaer's residential area and there is a short walk to the centre where the shops, cafes, etc are situated. Whilst I was there a decision was made not to open the Restaurant for evening meals, although no advance notice of this was given, I was unable to go to local restaurants as I had become ill and not fit to go out in the cold evenings. So had to make do with bread and cheese on the first evening, and nothing on the second!!!
