Apartment in Henningsvær

Two things separate this flat from the other Henningsvær apartments on the site: it has a lift, and it has its own free parking. Both matter in a village built on rock with narrow lanes and little room for cars.

The unit is 49 m² and sold as a One-Bedroom Apartment on the sea side. The bedroom takes an extra-large double, the living room a sofa bed, and Booking.com puts the limit at two people in each — four in all. There is one bathroom, and sea and mountain outlooks are recorded among the facilities.

The kitchen is complete: dishwasher, oven, hob, kettle, coffee machine, kitchenware, plus a washing machine. Arrival is narrow, 16:00 to 21:00, quiet hours run from 23:00 to 07:00, and NOK 3,000 is held on a credit card as a refundable damage deposit. Three guests have rated it so far, at 9.7, which is too few to mean much.

Why stay here

Space for four in the centre of Henningsvær with parking included and a lift to the door — a combination most of the village's apartments cannot offer — plus a sea outlook from a 49 m² flat.

Who it’s for

A couple, or a family of four using the sofa bed. No cot or extra bed is available, so it does not suit a baby, and a five-person group will not fit.

Highlights

  • Lift in the building and free private parking
  • Extra-large double in the bedroom, sofa bed in the living room

Things to consider

The arrival window is short — 16:00 to 21:00 — and the property asks to be told your time in advance. A NOK 3,000 damage deposit is taken by credit card on arrival, returned within seven days after an inspection. No cot or extra bed can be added, pets are refused, and guests of 18 and over are charged as adults. The rating rests on three reviews, so treat it as provisional. No balcony or terrace is listed.
