Apartment in Henningsvær

Thirty square metres, one bedroom and a sofa bed: this is a small flat for a couple, or for four at a push, in the middle of Henningsvær. Banhammaren 2J is about 450 m from Kartverket's registered point for the village, close enough that the harbour and the galleries are a walk.

The bedroom has a large double bed and the living room a sofa bed, two beds with a limit of two guests in each. One private bathroom holds a shower, a hairdryer and towels. The apartment is semi-detached with its own entrance, and a patio opens off it.

The kitchen is better equipped than the size suggests — an oven, a hob, a dishwasher, a fridge, a kettle, a coffee machine, a tea and coffee maker and kitchenware, with a dining table — though there is no washing machine. WiFi and private parking are both free. Booking.com records a guest score of 8.1 from 33 reviews, so read the reviews before you commit.

Why stay here

A compact, cheap-to-run base inside Henningsvær with free parking and a kitchen you can actually cook in, which in a village of this size means walking to the quay rather than driving in for the day.

Who it’s for

A couple, or two couples or a small family using the sofa bed and accepting 30 m² between them. Walkers, climbers and photographers who spend the day out and want somewhere cheap and central to sleep; less suited to a party planning to spend the day indoors.
