Good and complete breakfast, good room and good sea view near the port. There is no boat/ferry noise in the room. I hadn't booked the room with balcony because it cost more, but I had it. I think the room has been upgraded, absolutely welcome.

A suitable length of stay would depend largely on the time of year.
There are many options for mountain walking in summer, less when snow covers the paths and countryside. Day Trips can be made to explore other scenic towns and villages by the local bus, along the island. Very scenic opportunities for photography with the changes in weather. Interesting short walks around Svolvaer and the harbour, boats, colourful buildings and rocky inlets scenery.

Svolvaer has the iconic architecture and "feel" of the Lofoten Islands but is large enough to have some choice in restaurants and easy access to most services. There are many museums and attractions nearby and just driving through the countryside yields spectacular views. Parking in town is limited and expensive, but the central parking lot is free after 7 PM.

Fantastic holiday in Svolvaer.
Fantastic holiday in Svolvaer. A photographers paradise from Fjord excursions to a road trip further a field.
My key highlights were the RIB Sea Eagles tour with Lofoten Explorers and the 5hr road trip with Lofoten Lights tour operators.
I will definitely be returning to see the Northern lights.

My son and I stayed here due to a change in our itinerary.
My son and I stayed here due to a change in our itinerary. We booked the location because it was close to the airport and it was reasonably priced. On the good side the location was on the water and walking distance to the center of town. The room offered a kitchenette with a table and two beds. One could access the deck overlooking the water. The people working the desk were very helpful, even booking a taxi for us to the airport. The bathroom is shared and the desk is closed at night. You have to walk to town for meals or stop by the nearby Circle K gas station for coffee and/or food if you don’t plan to cook. Rooms were upstairs, and there is no elevator.

Most convenient location for visiting the Lofoten islands. The pier for the exceedingly beautiful Trollfjord trip is walking distance from Svinoya.
The enterprising can hike the Djevelporten peak , which has steps for about 50% distance.

Svolvaer is a great pictures town with a bery nice water front.
The restaurants and coffee shops are great and there a lot of activities all around.
We used it as a base camp as we drove all around the amazing Lofoten islands for six days.
Excellent service from the staff and good maintained place, everything neatly arranged so you have an easy time keeping clean after yourself. It is not a location to go and relax for a week, unless you book all the rooms for you and your family. But as some non pretentious nights for people who enjoy walking few extra mins from the city center, it was perfect and lovely. I was offered to borrow a bike, and the outside sitting area was just lovely too. Would surely use again if I'd spend a couple of nights in Svolvær
Location of Thon Hotel Lofoten is TOP - just right on the central square of the Svolver Town, close to the shops, restaurant and marina.
I found the room cosy and comfortable, everything is OK for rest after busy days on Lofotens.
Breakfast at the restaurant us fantastic - very big diversity of the food, including norwegian delicatessen - salted and smoked fish, caviar, and even something which you do not know what is it ;-)
Very tasty.
Good lounge to drink something in the evening with view.
I had the ground floor apartment, which was very clean and cosy and had everything one needs for a comfortable stay, including a washing machine. Conveniently located close to the city centre. The owner replied even in a super early morning hour when I had an issue with the key box checking out (all on me, there was nothing wrong with the box). A great experience, and considering the generally high prices in Svolvær, pretty good value, too!
Great ubication within Svolvær centre, very close to the starting points of the majority of the tours, I'm a latin boy, the hotel's personnel speak a very good English, so I could establish communication with them when I needed, the hotel is quiet enough to have a rest, the views from the room balcony were fantastic!
Got the keys without contact and with a key box. This is super convenient because we didn't always know when we would arrive at a certain location while exploring and driving around with our car. Also could do our laundry here and the laundry machine was efficient and quiet. Nice stay in Svolvær!
This is a modern comfortable hotel, nice breakfast even though the coffee making was a bit confusing. The rooms can be nice if they overlook the sea otherwise you might overlook a very sad parking lot and grey building. Typical big chain hotel, not the most charming but comfortable.
We provided our own breakfast. The location is perfectly charming for discovering an authentic Rorbuer. It was easy to walk around and explore or to walk over the bridge for further options of restaurants. The scenery is Lofoten at its most delightful.
I needed clean room with fulfilling simple breakfast - Marina offered it all. I use hotel rooms for rest/meals so I don`t need high spec facilities, as long as its clean I am ok with it. You don`t go to Lofoten and stay in your hotel room :-)
The location is good, with a nice view of Svolværgeita. There is a lot of space in the cabin. The kitchen is well equipped, and there are hair dryers. Baths have heating in the floor. There are enough parking spaces (we had two cars).
The perfect reception by Kurt , friendly and ready to show us all amenities. Beautiful location facing the leisure harbor of Svolvær, the easy access to town centre yet not a noise to be heard apart from the seagulls😁
- Friendly and flexible staff
- Cozy cabins, with traditional vibe but all facilities
- Good location within Svolvær
- Restaurant (Kjøkkenet) was best we had on our trip
- Free parking
- Free sauna
The breakfast was exceptional, lots of choices for any diet or dietary restrictions.
The room was barebones and simple with simple decor but pillows, beds and bedding were very comfortable.
Very friendly and helpful host. He picked us up at the jetty where we arrived on the hurtigbåt from Bodø and dropped us off at the hotel where we moved on to in Svolvær.
The place is in amazing location. Typical Scandic hotel. Nice/ helpful personel, good breakfast. Plenty of choise. Nothing more to add. Except about the rooms itself.
