“Love the location!”
+The setting was spectacular! Surrounded by mountains and water. Very nice rooms! Friendly staff. Quality and presentation of breakfast was excellent!
−Breakfast offering was not very kid friendly and the same exact breakfast every day. Dinner option was only a five course meal, no à la carte. Overall an expensive stay.

“World class restaurant in a wild arctic location”
+World class dinner in cosy, tasteful fishermans cabin, perfect match of food and location Very atmospheric location on a rock in the sea overlooking the sea and ragged mountain peaks We stayed 2 nights in modern room overlooking the mountain - small and basic rooms but fantastic views.
−Rooms are pricy and feel more like an expedition camp than a luxury hotel Concept works perfect if you stay for the amazing dinner - not worth it for the hotel room on its own

+This hotel is perfect for Lofoten, as it never competes or distracts from the natural beauty of the surroundings but encourages an outward gaze and peaceful observation. The people of the hotel were some of the loveliest that we encountered and contributed mightily to our experience. I would relish the chance to escape to Holmen again and again.
−We are hikers, and the first morning, we did not understand just how small the breakfast portions are. The granola is delicious but only a few spoonfuls, and the waffle is the size of a cracker. When combined with the eggs, it is a comfortably filling breakfast.

“Incredible food and drink ( but charging extra for drinks at breakfast is a bit much.”
+Food - communal spaces - location
−Table service and chefs good - Reception average not enough info on swimming/sauna options (no sauna) - saying on website that 2 nights is the only option when booking is misdescription as several people we met were only there for one night. We fidn’t need two nights.

+מקום מיוחד. האווירה. ארוחת בוקר טובה
−כל פעם שאחד מהחדרים משתמש בצנרת זה עובר אצלנו בחדר. הקירות והתקרה דקים כך ששומעים הכל החדר קטן הגישה מהחניה לחדר לא נוחה ואף מסוכנת

“Den Preis nicht wert - Erwartungen nicht getroffen”
+Personal überwiegend sehr freundlich (Inhaber ausgenommen)
−Sehr hellhöriges Zimmer (wir haben nach einer Lösung gefragt, damit wir schlafen können, hätten ein besseres Zimmer gegen Aufpreis bekommen können, weil wir ja genau das Zimmer gewollt hätten, da gebucht …) Zimmer über Schotterpiste erreichbar - mit Koffern nicht optimal Im Doppelzimmer 2 Koffer unter zubekommen ist auch sehr schwierig unflexibel und schlecht erreichbar (Rezeption offiziell tagsüber besetzt, aber dort sitzt nicht immer jemand und über die Telefonnummer niemanden erreicht, ein paar Stunden später kommt Rückruf) Frühstück hatten wir mehr erwartet (wenn man mehr als 1 Nacht da ist, eintönig und nicht mit einem Buffet zur vergleichen (3 Sachen zur Auswahl, kleine Portionen, sodass man alle 3 essen kann ( Joghurt + Granola / Scheibe Brot mit Ei und Käse und Speck / 2 Waffelherzen) Für den Preis haben wir deutlich mehr erwartet, daher würden wir es nicht empfehlen und lieber woanders übernachten

“Täydellinen odotuksia vastaava tai hieman jopa parempikin vierailu josta saimme ihania muistoja.”
+Pyitteen ja paikan tyyli ilahdutti kovin. Sisustus ja toki koko arkkitehtuuri korkealaatuista ja modernia. Henkilökunta reseptionista lähtien loistavaa. Oli ilo käydä illallisella joka oli arvosteluissa saatijen huippupisteiden vetoinen. Huone oli todella siisti ja puhdas. Lämmintä vettäkin riitti hienosti. Loistava kokonaisuus kokonaisuudessaan.
−Ei oikein huonoa palautusta. Toki kuivauskaappi kastuneita vaatteita ja varusteita varten olisi ollut tarpeellinen.

“Hotel and restaurant at the enge of the world in the best way imaginable”
+Without doubt one of the most special, well designed, unique, authentic yet contemporary places I’ve ever stayed - mixing an old fishing village aura with MCM design from the likes of Wegner and Arne Jacobsen. Old greyish wood panels and rusty roofs go together with bold colors and razor cut architectural elements. The staff and the food: nothing short of phenomenal. It was like stepping into an ASMR-video. A cool yet genuine and friendly vibe could be felt in every detail. Set in the outer reaches of Lofoten, this is really ”the edge of the world” in every positive way you can imagine.
−A bit expensive, but hey - it’s Lofoten. You get the drill.
