Hotel in Svolvær

Nordis Hotel occupies Austnesfjordgata 36 in Svolvær, about 300 metres in a straight line from the point this guide uses for the town. Booking.com gives it three stars and 8.2 from 316 reviews; the hotel's own site puts the total at 25 rooms.

Entry is keyless. A door code, and a second for your own room, is sent by text and email on the day you arrive, and a reception is staffed from morning to evening if you need a person. Five grades are listed: a 15 m² double, a 17 m² deluxe double, a 17 m² economy quadruple with three beds, a 19 m² family room with two beds and a 19 m² economy double. All have their own bathroom, and some have a bath rather than only a shower.

Rooms carry a desk, a kettle, a fridge and a flat-screen television with a streaming service, and a television lounge sits off the lobby. Parking costs nothing, though the hotel says a space cannot be promised and points to the street when its lot fills; two electric-car chargers stand behind the building.

Why stay here

A room with its own bathroom a few minutes from the middle of Svolvær, opened with a code, with a fridge, a streaming television and two electric-car chargers behind the hotel.

Who it’s for

  • Families

Independent travellers, families who can use the quadruple or the family room, and drivers of electric cars. Cyclists should know the hotel keeps no indoor bike storage, and anyone wanting daily housekeeping should look elsewhere, since a room is cleaned once you leave it rather than during the stay, unless you ask.

Highlights

  • 25 rooms in the middle of Svolvær
  • Keyless entry with codes sent on the day
  • Own bathroom in every grade, a bath in some
  • Quadruple and family rooms for up to four
  • Two electric-car chargers behind the building

Things to consider

A room is cleaned once you leave it rather than during the stay; extra cleaning or towels have to be requested. Parking is free but the hotel will not promise a space, suggesting the street nearby when its lot is full. There is no indoor storage for bicycles. An extra bed for a guest of 12 or over costs NOK 400 per person a night, and from 12 a child pays the adult rate. Check-in closes at 23:00 and the hotel asks to know your arrival time. Upper floors are reached by stairs only.

The accommodation

Five grades: a Double of 15 m², a Deluxe Double of 17 m², an Economy Quadruple of 17 m² with three beds, a Family Room of 19 m² with two beds and an Economy Double of 19 m².

The hotel's own site puts the total at 25 rooms. Upper floors are reached by stairs.
