The cabin was cozy, quiet, and had a wonderful view. We also ate at the restaurant where the service and meal was excellent. Only regret was we did not stay longer to do the kayak tour.

Amazing setting in a restored , old fisherman’s cabin. We purchased firewood for the woodstove at the circle k next door. Reine was all I had hoped it would be.

The cottages have an excellent location to the Reinebringen trail. The views are wonderful and cabins have a small kitchen that includes coffee pots and hot water kettle. The breakfast is very good although I thought it should be included in rental as most hotels are in Norway.

Breathtaking views and cozy cabins
The best way to spend a night at Lofoten. Great attention to detail, fisher cabin feel with the comfort of a hotel room. The location is excellent, ferry to Bodø is close and there’s nice hikes close by.

First of all the receptionist Paulina and Blasch are very hospitable, kind and helpful. The cabins are clean, warm and great views from the living room and kitchen windows. A unique location because you are surrounded with beautiful mountains and also convenient to grocery and transport. The property restaurant is cozy and had good food. Our guide Jack, for day tour that was arranged by Paulina is excellent. Our whole experienced was outstanding thanks for the whole team. I surely will come back and I highly recommend Reine Rorbuer. Thank you so much !!! Sincerely, Jane

Great views, comfortable space
The views are the best thing about Reine and the Rorbuer gives fantastic views over the harbor and the fjords. The cabin we stayed in was warm and comfortable. There were towels (no small towels) and sheets and the internet was decent. When we were there, the reception at the hotel closed at 8:30 at night and didn't open until somewhat late in the morning. There are only two restaurants in town and public transport is practically non-existent so you'll be stranded if you don't get the number for the local taxi company. The ferries up the fjord dock very near the Reine Rorbuer and the Aqua Lofoten tours leave from very nearby too.

Cozy, peaceful and homey stay
This place was so sweet, cozy and well done. I wish we stayed longer. It was so special in the cabin and well done like a true home. We even had our own patio and picnic table. I would highly recommend this peaceful, quiet stay.

Spectacular Rorbuer with fantastic views
We were assigned Rorbuer #20, which in my opinion is one of the best due to the excellent views. Rorbuer #20 has 2 bedrooms, each with its ensuite bathroom, and the entire Rorbuer seemed to be newly renovated and was very cozy. It was cold and can be windy in Reine, but the Rorbuer was warm enough for us. The view from this Rorbuer was the highlight, as we got a fantastic view of Reine from the balcony. we also manage to catch the northern lights from the Rorbuer! All in all, this was one of the best accommodation we had for the trip, and we look forward to staying with reine Rorbuer when we visit reine in future.

Comfortable and amazing view!
We love this place so much we stayed here twice! It's the best place to stay if you're taking the ferry to/from Bodø. The first night we stayed we selected the upgraded room and it was sooooo worth it! The suite is huge with two bathrooms and two bedrooms plus a generous living room and small kitchen. The heated floors are the absolute best on a cold day. The view from #33 Artur is just incredible, like nothing you've ever seen. We never ate at Gammelbua, the hotel restaurant, but ate twice at the restaurant next door which is adorable and very reasonably priced. Be sure to try the local Lofoten beers! Reception at Reine Rorbuer is so friendly and accommodating. We asked for extra instant coffee and for our ferry ticket to be printed, they obliged happily. Even our stay in a basic room was awesome! It was so quiet and still tons of space for two people. Note that if you are coming in off-season (October), food options are VERY limited!!! Plan ahead and go to a grocery store when you can as there's no breakfast at Reine Rorbuer or anywhere nearby until 9 or 10am. Overall I'd recommend this place to anyone!

THE Place to Stay in Reine
Lofoten is an incredible destination, Reine is THE place to visit there, and Reine Rorbuer is THE place to stay in Reine. We wanted one of those cozy red cottages by the water - This place exceeded our expectations. The location has iconic views of the town and the surrounding mountains. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The room included a kitchen. The water pressure in our shower was excellent. The restaurant at the hotel may be a little pricey, but had excellent lamb, beef tenderloin, and crème brûlée. Nearby, there is the ferry to the beaches, a gas station, several restaurants, and a bakery. Worth it.

Fantastic lodging with supreme views
Our 3 bedroom apartment was on the second and third floor of one of the fishing cabins. It afforded us quick access to anywhere in the area while having superlative views. The cabin is cozy and well appointed - with countless tea lights in the windows throughout the cabin. The only small nitpicks were a flaky wifi connection and the lack of a curtain in the bathroom. Overall my favorite and most cost effective lodging in Norway. Would definately recommend it to anyone traveling through Reine.

We love Reine Rorbuer
If you want to visit Norway that you must go to lofoten islands and must stay in Reine Rorbuer. We've just left this place for 2days, we are planning go back to Reine Rorbuer.

The PERFECT place to stay!
We originally booked for two nights. We loved it so much we added a third night. Our cabin was terrific! Plenty of room and lots of added extras. The location was beautiful. And the employees went above and beyond. We will definitely be back!

Sensational location.
Amazing experience at the Reine Rorbuer. Quaint and cosy Fishermans' cottage with grass roof, overlooking a sensationally dramatic view. Afternoons spent watching the sun set across the fjord were a highlight of our trip to Norway.
Twilight from our deck.
