The Tide - Hotel

一共只有幾間房，很安靜！早餐內容不是很豐富，味道還行。相比更加網紅的小紅房子，我覺得這邊更舒服，至少不用擔心沒有充足的熱水洗澡。

My wife and I were greatly looking forward to this overnight visit but were unable to travel by car to the Hotel as there was a snow warning in place and the road from our previous overnight accommodation was closed meaning we had to undertake a 535km detour from Sweden to Norway which took hours of course. We messaged the Hotel well ahead of our planned arrival time to advise of the problem but they insisted on charging us for the night anyway. Great hospitality I don’t think; I’m proud to say that this hasn’t been my experience in my home Country. We already have another Lofoten trip planned but needless to say with other hospitality destinations.

We spent one night and decided to come back for our last night in the Lofotons. Very, very accommodating. Very hospitable hosts. The rooms are very nice. The restaurant - The Havet- served one of the best meals we’ve had in Norway. We want to come back the next time we come to the Lofotons

We discovered this new and modern design hotel. 5min from Moskenes. Friendly welcome and amazing view from the room on the harbor. If you book there, you have to experience the restaurant with the panorama view. We had dinner there on thursday March 24th. Fish & lamb very delicious. Good wine recommendation as well. And tasty fondant au chocolat. All in all, excellent and friendly service. Thank you! We will come back!

Considering that Norway is the most expensive country in Europe and that the breathtaking scenery and quaint fishing villages of Lofoten make it the country’s #1 tourist destination, the high price of the converted fisherman’s cabins here is pretty average. The cabins are refurbished to modern standard but are somewhat spartan. Mine had a stove-top but no oven, not even a microwave or a toaster, and the lack of a dish-rack meant that you had to use the dishwasher at least once a day or else improvise. The bathroom was similarly minimal. The bed was comfortable but not properly balanced, so the upper mattress kept on slipping off one side of the bed overnight! I had to park the car on the clifftop and walk the final 50 m to the cabin (which was 800 m from the reception). But these are minor issues: the setting is fabulous in all weathers (and staying a week meant I did see the harbour, village and mountains in brilliant sunshine, torrential rain, swirling fog and eerie stillness). Self-catering is a good option in a country where restaurant meals are exorbitant, and the traditional rorbuer on the water’s edge are definitely the place to stay. The environment is peaceful, the staff friendly and efficient, wifi excellent and everything clean and functional.
