Svolvær is the place to stay when visiting Norway's Lofoten Islands, and the best hotels are those that enhance your stay in this rugged, far-north locale. Kimkim recommends properties with distinctive character, such as
Svinøya Rorbuer, which stands out with its traditional fishing cabins set against the backdrop of truly impressive natural scenery. Or, if you prefer a more contemporary option, go with
Thon Hotel Svolvær and its stylish Nordic design, which is situated at the waterfront so you can enjoy views of the harbor and mountains. And to experience the essence of modern Scandinavian living, enjoy the blend of luxury and coziness at
Nordis Suites & Apartments, which, as a bonus, also offers nearly panoramic views of the harbor from your own private terrace.
