Å Rorbuer

A great location. Room was clean, well decorated. But no kettle for tea drinkers. Ate at the restaurant. The staff were super friendly. The fish soup was sublime. One of the best to be had in Norway.

I have stayed at Å Robuer one night and I wrote to them to express my disappointment about the room hoping for some partial refund but all I got was a reply where they “accepted my feedback”. I have booked directly on their website; the booking was for a 1-bed cabin which was on discount and I was expecting to sleep in one that looked a bit more like the pictures they have on their website (very misleading pictures and probably belonging to a larger 1 bed accommodation). The room was very small, I barely fit myself and sleeping in two people was very uncomfortable (especially when one of them is 1.90cm). The pictures and the description showed a larger living room, a double bed (and larger bedroom/living room) and when I got there it was just a tiny apartment, a twin bed room which was very tiny and uncomfortable. Some pictures of the living room are shown on the website together with those of the larger 1bed accommodation but expectations were to sleep in a larger place as shown in the the pictures (in a double bed at least). In the morning there was no one at reception to file a complain (because it opened at 12) when I checked out. I was very disappointed as this looked very good an nice on their website

A nice place, that offers a somewhat interesting experience, but not much more. The rooms are okay, but different from one another. We booked two cabins, the same ones on paper, but one of them was definetly better in practice (more space in the living room/kitchen). We had booked those via booking, so we received instructions for the check-in. We didn't see one single living soul at the site (there are probably around 40 cabins, next to one another), there's a reception, but it was constantly closed (or looked like no one was there).
