The Room was stunning, looking out over the harbour and the square. And the breakfast... was the best breakfast I have ever had. We didn’t really have the best experience of Norwegian food before, but this place changed everything! Sadly didn’t make it to dinner as the restaurant was closed on Sunday evening when we were there, next time...!

Got a great welcome at this hotel. Happy people in the reception and the cleanest hotelroom we have gotten in a long time. We even got a free upgrade. Really nice view, every season. The breakfast was exceptional, as usual. Close to restaurants and even an art gallery (North Norwegian Art Center) next door to the entrance. (A hidden gem). Parking garage in the basement of the hotel. Looking forward to our next visit there.

The people, the service, the food, the view, the atmosphere... If you want to spoil yourself (or a loved one) in Svolvær this is the place to go! Book an ocean view room and be amazed. Sun or rain or snow, the scenery is breathtaking. And don't hesitate to eat at the hotel restaurant. The food is superb. So was the breakfast. Coffee was served to us by the table and there was something for everyone's taste. I really loved the fresh smoothie shots and the warm buffet with chefs standing by to fill up on bacon and different omelets. The whole experience was top notch and I will definetly go back !

Our room was booked by an agency through which we had organized our bike trip. At the checkin at the Thon Hotel we were directly informed that we would have to pay 300 crowns extra for the second person, because only one person was registered. There was no friendly offer of help like "there is only one person registered, could this be a mistake? Do they have any other information" Just pay extra now please. After we had denied this and had searched out our booking documents it went then nevertheless. However, we got a room in the adjoining house which was probably only designed for one person. It had a double bed, but was super small overall. The bathroom could only be used when the shower door was folded. Overall, this was very disappointing and we would certainly not choose this hotel again. I had emailed Spagat two days before arrival asking about a possible upgrade to our reservation, but never got a response. On the positive side, the breakfast really stood out. Huge selection and good coffee.…

The hotel uses misleading pictures of the rooms. We booked a room with a picture of a new beautiful room with a view. But they placed us in an old building next to the hotel, with a much lower standard and no view. When we complained about the room, they just told us we have to pay extra to get the room we originally had booked. There was no apologies or excuse from the staff. There was also a lot of party noise at night.

We stayed two nights. The guy that checked us in was super nice and so was the rest of the staff at the restaurant etc. Fairly large hotel in the center of Svolvær and close to everything. We had a standard double room which was perfect, and also with a sea view. Parking garage in the basement is convenient. Pet friendly. Breakfast was just amazing! Would stay here again!
