"You can check in yourself or do it at the reception when you arrive.
Eliassen Rorbuer has a really big area, with its own restaurant and a bakery (which opens in June), and private saunas you can book for a fee.
The place feels cozy and traditional with all the wooden decor. I booked the Waterfront Superior One-Bedroom Cottage. While it's not super spacious, the kitchen has everything you need, just bring your own seasonings. The bathroom is clean and warm, and they have a smaller hot water tank to be eco-friendly, so if two of you are showering, try to wrap it up in about 40 mins.
The outdoor seating area isn't a terrace, you have to go inside to get to it. If it snows a lot, the skylight can get covered and you might not see the sky. I stayed for two nights, on the first night, the skylight was completely covered with snow, so we had to go outside to catch the Aurora . But on the second night, after some rain melted the snow, we could enjoy the Aurora from both inside and out. "
"We booked two bedroom oceanfront cabin which got a very nice view. The cabin is clean but kitchenette facility is a bit short (e.g. cover is missing for pot).
We don’t expect rooms are actually in the loft. So it may not be a good choice for those carrying large luggage as it is difficult to carry to luggage to go up to the rooms.
Staff are very nice and helpful.
Hotel restaurant is cozy with good breakfast.
Overall speaking, we are satisfied with the stay.
