Hotels in Vagan

"Overall, a 10/10 experience! There are several free parking lots nearby, and the hotel provides a complimentary breakfast which was quite good in taste and quality – definitely recommended. The hotel staff were also very nice. The only inconvenience for me was that the hotel doesn't have an elevator, and I had two large suitcases to carry."

"The room was a decent size and clean, but the bathroom shower room was too small. The surrounding area was relatively quiet, about a 10-minute walk from Svolwell, and there was a bonfire at night."

"The hotel was easy to find and the self-check-in process was very convenient. However, the room was a bit small and the curtains didn't block out enough light. It was too bright in the room at night, especially during the midnight sun. On the upside, the complimentary breakfast was excellent!"

"Check in was smooth but the access code was sent very close to check in time, creating some anxiety. The room was clean. The only one with a balcony was very nice. Amenities were scant, only 2 bath towers and no other tower. The small fridge is useful, as is the tea kettle. The furniture arrangement was sensible  making good use of the small space. Overall good experience."

"This is the third Thon chain hotel I've stayed at on this trip, and the WiFi password was conveniently the same across all of them. The room was a good size, spotlessly clean, and came with a kettle. There's a supermarket conveniently located nearby to stock up on essentials. Also, there's a Chinese restaurant by the sea; the food was decent, and it's the only Chinese restaurant on the island."

"I stayed at Svinøya Rorbuer recently, and honestly, it was such a beautiful experience. Our cabin had the perfect view for catching the northern lights — we literally just looked out of the window and there they were, dancing above us. Pure magic. The cabin itself was spotless and felt really cosy. One of the heaters wasn’t working at first, but the team came over and sorted it immediately, which I really appreciated. Fast, friendly service makes all the difference, especially in the cold! Overall, a lovely stay. I’d happily go back in a heartbeat."

"It was our first visit in Norway. We checked few thing to try in Norway, one of them is stay in Rorbuer which we booked this Nyvågar Rorbuhotell. We liked a lot this Rorbuer which is great location especially I booked a sea view rorbuer. The breakfast was nice with quality food provided."

"Fantastic! It's clean, well-equipped, and the decor is so cozy. The kitchen is great, and the bathroom is huge. There's even a fireplace! It's about a 30-minute drive from Svolvaer and has free parking right outside. Highly recommend!"

"Absolutely loved this hotel! The surroundings are incredibly photogenic, and the aurora often appears right on the mountain top across from the hotel. I even asked the front desk for aurora viewing recommendations, and they suggested a small church hill and by the pier. But honestly, you can just watch it from right outside the hotel. Otherwise, you'd have to head towards the city outskirts, and the two places they recommended weren't great, especially the small church – it was too cluttered with trees and rooftops. Plus, the hotel's lobby offers free 24-hour hot water, tea, and coffee, which is a huge bonus! I'm not sure if my room got an upgrade, but it felt much larger than I expected. The hotel has two floors, and the only downside is no elevator. So, it's best to pack your luggage strategically. If you're on the second floor, just take a few essentials up, and you can store your suitcase at the front desk. Of course, when checking in, if you're on the second floor, a staff member will help you with your bags, but you'll have to carry them down yourself when checking out. The hotel is about 600 meters from the pier and several large supermarkets, making shopping and getting around convenient. The parking lot is also spacious. All in all, fantastic value for money!
