Lofoten Bed & Breakfast Reine

Eight room types under one roof in Reine itself, from a single room to an apartment for five, with breakfast included, keyless entry and no queue at a desk because there is no desk.

Solo travellers, who are badly served in Reine and have a 10 m² single here; families, who have three sizes of family room and an apartment; and hikers heading up Reinebringen, which the property answers is within walking distance and recommends for summer rather than winter.

There is no reception and no lift, and upper floors are reached by stairs only. Not every room has its own bathroom — the 5 m² twin on the top floor shares one — so check which you are booking. Cots cost NOK 150 per child per night for children up to two and no extra beds are offered. Quiet hours run from 22:00 to 07:00, pets are not accepted and hen and stag groups are refused. Breakfast times shift with the season, which the property confirms rather than publishing a fixed hour.

Eight room types: a 10 m² single with one bed; a 5 m² twin on the top floor with two beds and a shared bathroom; a 15 m² budget twin with two beds; a 19 m² twin with a kitchenette and two beds; a 20 m² standard family room; a 25 m² family room; a 28 m² family room with a kitchenette and two beds; and a 70 m² three-bedroom apartment with five beds across two twin rooms and a double. Some rooms have a private bathroom with a shower, a hairdryer and towels; others share. Bed linen and towels come with every unit, and the property is non-smoking.

There is no lift, and Booking.com records that upper floors are accessible by stairs only. The property is self-service with no reception.

Free WiFi and parking with every booking, luggage storage, heating and a shared garden and terrace. Rooms carry a desk, a clothes rack, a drying rack, a sofa or sofa bed and a seating area; the kitchenettes and the apartment kitchen hold a hob, a dishwasher, a fridge, a toaster, an electric kettle, kitchenware and a dining table, with a washing machine on site. Upper floors are accessible by stairs only and there is no lift.

A buffet breakfast is served daily and is included in the rate; Booking.com records juice and cheese among what is put out, and the operator lists breakfast with every room. Times move with the season. Several rooms have a kitchenette and the apartment has a full kitchen, so guests can also cook.

Reineveien 55, 8390 Reine, in Moskenes municipality — on the road through the village, at Kartverket's registered point for Reine. Booking.com records mountain and garden views, with sea views and a terrace from some rooms, and a garden for guests.

Booking.com gives Leknes Lufthavn Airport as 57.7 km away; the property puts it at about 60 km and confirms that a bus runs from the airport, pointing guests at Reis Nordland to plan the journey. Reinebringen, it says, is within walking distance, and it recommends going in summer rather than treating it as a winter route. Parking is included with a booking.
