The location is spectacular. We had an incredible view of the harbour and watched the aurora from the balcony at night. There are reading nooks, plenty of spaces to sit and eat - and plenty of room for multiple couples. The kitchen was outfitted with everything you could need. The unit exceeded expectations in terms of space, location, and cleanliness.

There's not a lot to do in Ballstad plus I felt the view from the lodge was just okay. It is on the water but overlooks a cod fishing plant which is authentic but there are other towns whereby the view is in a fjord and much nicer to look out to.
Ballstad is convenient as it is a good midway point for the Lofoten Islands but I would recommend other towns to stay in for views and shops and cafes.

Very small town with limited hotel and dining options.
Very small town with limited hotel and dining options. You visit Norway for the scenery but driving into Ballstad was one of the least scenic roads we were on. No compelling reason too visit or stay.

Ballstad is a beuatifull fishing village with mighty peaks just behind the rorbu houses. There are many locations that are truly inspiring for photographers. I am glad I visited this village, it is on par with Henningsvear or Nusfjord in my opinon.

The shops are far from the hostel (40 min by walking) and not so alive. But if you come to rest and to do small hikes it's great. Easy to reach Leknes (15 min by car) or Reine if you have a car. Not so many busses.

So staying at Ballstad makes more sense that staying at Reine because if you stay at Reine you wouldn't wanna come out of the town towards Svolvaer and in that case you will miss out all the beautiful places in between. Whereas when staying at Ballstad, you will be driving down and returning from the A & Reine and can stop at all the places in between twice. Places like Ramberg, Uttakleiv, Haukland, Hanmoy and gorgeous and would wanna pass through them and stop there as much as one can.
The best hotel we stayed in the entire trip. The owner was friendly, helpful and responsive. Her cabin was in very good condition. I loved all the heated floors and the wonderful fjord views. Towels were clean. Parking was easy. Kitchen was well equipped. We could see Northern lights near the balcony. i like the cozy 2nd floor cozy living room with look through glasses. Highly recommended though the cabin is a bit difficult to find. But with GPS, its not a big issues. Owner was very helpful with all my queries and answered me very timely.
The location is great, accessible and close to Leknes. The hotel has amazing breakfast and a sauna and most importantly the staff!! They are really really sweet and warm and welcoming ! They even packed us breakfast as we were checking out early to catch a flight. The restaurant is one of the best and perhaps only fine dine in whole of Lofoten. Try their fried COD fish it’s amazing. We stayed in 3 other places in Lofoten I should say this was our favourite. One minor feedback the bed is too soft and bouncy for us but that’s alright.
We loved Villa Ballstad! Since we were the only guests at that time, we got an upgrade to a very nice room with balcony (where we were able to watch Northern Lights from bed!). This was already at the beginning of the stay very attentive from the hosts. The whole living area is really nice, the kitchen is quite big and offers everything we needed. We were also able to use the sauna, which was really nice :) We can just imagine that staying here in summer would be magnifique as well!
Thanks a lot for a lovely time!
Clean, comfortable bed, staff at the reception (the lady who checked us in) was really nice and helpful. Our server at the restaurant was friendly and helpful. The location is nice, there is a Joker very close and a nice little cafe. They allow you to use the washer (no dryer available ). Loved the provided soap/shampoo/conditioner. Close to the airport. Ballstad has really nice trails.
I enjoyed my stay very much. It's the perfect space for a photo-traveller. The small kitchen has everything you need even a dishwasher. It's very cozy and comfortable. I felt like home. Ballstad is the perfect place to start your everyday photo-journey on the Lofoten because it's pretty much the center of the islands. You can reach every good photo-spot within 1h 20mins drive.
OMG! What a a place. The best choice in my entire trip. Ballstad is a small town that is close to all the places you want to visit in Lofoten. and this hotel is charming, it looks new, intelligently built and with comfort, cleanliness and beauty both inside and around. We loved it, also the price was very good compared to Norwegian prices
Outstanding location right in the Ballstad harbour. The house is really original and feels genuine Norwegian. Spacy and well equipped. Built in 1930's but everything works and is clean. The kitchen and toilets are renovated. The host Arthur provides outstanding service - he is helpful and really available if needed. We loved Lofoten. <3
Nice little hotel right on the water. Our room was small but had very comfortable beds and a nice bathroom. A plus was that just outside the room there was a small kitchen which was great for preparing breakfast by ourselves. The hotel is in a very quiet area and is in the perfect location for exploring the surroundings.
Everything! I stayed here 6 nights in the hotels cabin (No.1), it was my sweet cozy home during the whole week of rainy and windy weather in Lofoten, even with this weather I managed to see Auroras 3 or 4 times in total. The owner’s family are so nice and welcoming. I definitely want to come back again…
Simple and comfortable cabin with everything we needed to cook a meal, hang out, and enjoy the area. The loft in the cabin was cute. Host was welcoming and helpful, providing recommendations for Ballstad. A little different than a hotel room- just tidy up the cabin before departing.
Superb! All staff are very kind and helpful. The owner was checking on us every time and trying to give us more information to enjoy. The hotel was very detailed and thoughtful. It worth for all, and I definitely come back. Also the food at “Fangst”was great experience.
The place was amazing. The room we get was perfect - the design, coziness and ect. The place of hotel was also great. We get Aurora Borealis that night. The hotel offer dining service. Not much choise but the food was good.
I loved the location as well as the hotel itʻs safe. It was a high end experience with a focus on being eco-friendly! I loved the personal experience with the staff and owner Kristian on our short stay. I will be back!
Cozy place in Ballstad. Excellent facilities include a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, and living.
Beautiful location with nice views out.
Excellent value for money overall, and I would definitely come back!
