We stayed in a 3 bedroom 2 bath deluxe seaview rorbuer for 4 nights. The cabin was great - wonderful view, comfortable beds, not luxury, but clean and comfy. There is no housekeeping, but the reception desk was willing to swap towels or refill shampoo containers. The area is beautiful and charming. The reason I took 2 stars away is the distraction of the mega tour buses that come down to the village center one after the other from about 10am to 4pm. It really was a nuisance and a distraction to the area. We would be sitting out on our waterfront deck and have dozens of bus tourists taking photos of us. I really can't believe the hotel or the village of Reine lets these buses come down to the village center. A better solution is to have a parking area for tour buses up at the top of the road before coming into Reine. I also can't believe the islands of Lofoten allow them to drive at top speeds on their narrow twisty and sometimes one lane roads, but that's another issue. Regardless, the rorbuer cabins were great, and the staff were excellent. Lots to do in the area if you like hiking, water activities and scenery.
