Catogården

a fantastic stay with not only great accomodations and a gorgeous location, but an almost inimitable sense of community that made this tiny point in Lofoten feel like home

Beautiful inn with beautiful wood floors. Very Norwegian. Lovely sitting room and breakfast lounge. Smaller private rooms but with a great ocean view. We weren’t used to common bathrooms but not a big deal.

Great boutique hotel with excellent views, unique rooms, great location and friendly staff. I would highly recommend staying here.

Great property in a great location with helpful staff.

Great place, clean, quiet and with nice view. Staff was super helpful.

Very nice place. Only disappointment was the hot tub. They advertise they have a hot tub but fail to mention it costs $30.00 per person extra to use. Plus it wasn’t hot and they said it could take 2 hours to warm up. They prominently show the hot tub in all advertising. Very misleading.

The staff here was great, not having an en suite bathroom wasn’t a problem and there were so many bathrooms and showers in the facility to use. Great activities you get a discount on.

Can’t recommend this place more - the friendliest people, large room, bathroom is spotless, yoga room and communal spaces are lovely. Great location - easy walk to the reinebringen entrance, 1 minute walk to the bus stop.

This is the perfect place you always look for, feels like you stays at your old friends home. With a lot of activities, kayaking, yoga, music room, e t c . Beats most of the places I have stayed at. Thanks a lot Runhild hope to see you and your staff again!

Veldig trivelig plass med god standard og masse muligheter. Vil absolutt anbefale dette stedet.

The old townhouse nowadays a Hotel. Lovely helpfull owner and staff. Comfy beds and great location. Shared bathrooms but plenty of them and spotless clean. Overall a very pleasant stay.

Special place. location, host and atmosphere were great. The room (we stayed at the orange room) and the whole site is very clean. The common room is nice place to eat your own meal and mingle with other travelers. There is only one issue that caused me to rate it 4 out of 5. When we booked the room at hotels.com there was no indication about shared bathroom. More than that, it was written that there is a shower in the room. The owner really apologized and fixed it later. This share bathroom in the second floor serves about 10 rooms and you can find yourself waiting even late at night … Apart from the shared bathroom issue, our overall experience and memories from our short stay are very good and we recommend.

I liked meeting other travelers and long term guests. I also enjoyed the free yoga!

Very nice people. Good amenities and great value for the price!

A lovely huge old house (used to be the old town hall!) that has been renovated beautifully. Runhild was super warm and welcoming and showed us around. The rooms are all different and really lovely. Ours had THE picture perfect view of Reine and the mountains in the back. Absolutely stunning. There is a tiny kitchen and fridge space to store things and diy laundry in the basement, which was great. The only downside was the shared bathroom situation. All of the guest rooms are on the second floor (around 12?) and there is only one bathroom up there. It also had 1 of the two showers, with the second being in the basement. So 2 full baths and one half bath spread among 3 floors, with a fully booked house made using the facilities a bit of a hassle. We stayed in other shared bath guest houses this trip and found this one to be the most annoying. Otherwise, this place was so cozy and charming.

The guesthouse is an historical building itself and its owners have been been making continuous changes and improvements for their guests. Beautiful wooden floors, a yoga studio, fantastic views of part of Lofoten’s most scenic areas, and walking distance to the awesome Reinebringen Hike. Groceries and restaurants are a short distance. Some of the best Lofoten kayaking is at your doorstep, one of the owners being a kayak guide himself. His wife, herself a key owner, is the yoga guide. Both are very friendly, knowledgeable, live on site, and will go out of their way to help you. English is spoken!

Great spot!

The property was amazing located in the most beautiful part of lofoten and the views from the property itself is one of the best in the village. Hosts were nice and welcoming. They do have yoga sessions in the morning and there's a common living area with microwave, refrigerator, dining table, fire place and some really good vibes. The entire property has been beautifully decorated with antique articles and paintings. Overall definately a go for place when you are in Lofoten

We arrived in the Lofoten Islands after a record snow a week before, with more snow than in the last 25 years. It was a winter wonderland. Upon arriving at the B&B, which is the size of a small hotel, we were warmly greeted by Runhild, the owner, who showed us around the house. The room we had selected online had a beautiful view. I am a professional photographer, so I was in the middle of photographing Lofoten and she made suggestions on me for both photographing the village and the Northern Lights. My 24 year old daughter accompanied me and she was invited to do a Kundalini class with Runhild the following morning. I had also participated in a regular yoga class, impromptu, the previous evening. They also had an espresso maker that made the best cup of coffee I had in Norway. This is a warm and welcoming place in a spectacular location. I'd love to be there in summer when it's possible to kayak. I'd highly recommend Catogarden any time of year!

We liked it alot. Great personal and service. We would have wanted more hangers for clothes in the bedroom.
