Guesthouse in Osan, near Svolvær

Lofoten Villa stands at Storøyveien 32 at Osan, on the edge of Svolvær in Vågan, about 500 metres in a straight line from the point this guide uses for the town. Booking.com scores it 8.4 from 350 reviews.

It works two ways. The whole house is 180 m² with eight beds across five bedrooms and, by the listing's count, two bathrooms. Or you can take one of five rooms on their own: singles of 9 m² and 10 m², doubles of 9 m² and 13 m², and a double or twin of 10 m² with two beds. The bedroom record on the listing shows three rooms with a pair of single beds, one with a double and one with a single. One room is sold specifically with a shared shower and toilet; others have a private bathroom, some with a bath.

Shared facilities include a kitchen, a washing machine, a flat-screen television with cable, a garden, a terrace and a balcony. Parking and WiFi are free and the property can arrange car hire. Check-in opens at 17:00, later than most, though the owners say they have arrangements for guests arriving at any hour.

Why stay here

A whole five-bedroom house for eight a short way from the middle of Svolvær — or one room in it — with a kitchen, a washing machine, a garden and free parking.

Who it’s for

Groups of up to eight who would rather have a house than a row of hotel rooms, and solo travellers or couples content with a small room in a shared one. Children under 10 are not accepted and neither are pets, so it leans towards adults and older families.

Highlights

  • The whole 180 m² house sleeps eight in five bedrooms
  • Individual rooms of 9 to 13 m² also let
  • Two bathrooms; one room comes with a shared shower and toilet
  • Shared kitchen, washing machine and garden
  • Free parking and free WiFi
  • Car hire can be arranged

Things to consider

Children under 10 are not accepted, and nobody under 18 can check in. Check-in does not open until 17:00, though the owners say late arrivals are catered for. The rooms are small, 9 to 13 m², and one is sold explicitly with a shared shower and toilet. There are no cots; an extra bed for a guest of 10 or over is free on request. Pets are not allowed, hen and stag groups are refused, quiet hours run from 23:00 to 08:00, and towels or sheets can carry an extra fee. Asked about holding luggage for eleven days between stays, the owners said that was not possible, though they will keep bags for a guest who has a room.

The accommodation
