Norway apartments

We had a truly memorable stay at Svinøya Rorbuer. The location is stunning — surrounded by dramatic Lofoten scenery and close to everything I wanted to explore. The rorbu (fisherman's cabin) was roomy, beautifully maintained, and offered a perfect mix of comfort and tradition. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the overall atmosphere made me feel welcome and at ease from the moment I arrived. I particularly appreciated the quiet setting and the views across the water. The sauna and four dips into the Arctic waters were amazing! Thank you to the Svinøya team for a wonderful experience — I would absolutely return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Lofoten Islands.

We loved our apartment which was the “biggy” and well worth the extra expense for a longer stay with two bedrooms, full kitchen and 2 sitting areas, bonus is the washer/dryer in the bathroom. We were on the 5th floor so above the noise and had the window open at night, the bedrooms are at the rear not street side so no noise. It is very secure, locked gate and door to access the building. Whilst the area will not suit everyone, it’s busy and “kebab land” no shortage of food, it’s multicultural and shabbier than the other sides of Oslo, it would be impossible to get such a great apartment at this price in a different area, the tube is 200m walk but we actually walked from the main train station off the airport train to the apartment in 15min with cases. The customer service from Bob is outstanding and when we got locked out it took 5min to re send our code, brilliant, definitely worth booking.

Lives area of Oslo, tram nearby but can also walk to many places.Supermarket close and apartment has all you need to cook dinner. Liked ease of access with PIN code provided prior to stay.

Great location, close to the city centre. Walkable distance to bus stops, taxi ranks, grocery store and shopping centre. Was a bit small for a family of three. As soon as the fold out sofa is set up, there is only a few centimeters of space left between the end of the bed and the shelf below the tv. Very hard to navigate in the night if getting up to use the toilet. Main bedroom needs more lights. Can be a bit dull at night. Overall we were happy with our stay.

Hotel in Frogner, close to tram stops. Room was spacious and clean. Need to pay for room cleaning and extra towels at small extra cost of 100 Nok. Staff very helpful and pleasant.

We enjoyed our stay at Tromso Camping. The lodge is surround by beautiful landscapes and staff were polite and accommodating. We had a cabin with no toilet/kitchenette but the shared facilities were clean. Our con would have been how far the walk wasn’t the facilities, being I believe the only rooms without toilets it’s strange they are the furthest from the facilities. Made it a bit difficult when I needed the bathroom in the middle of the night and my child was sleeping. I didn’t want to leave her alone. I knew it had no toilet which was fine, I should have checked how far away it was.
