Ibestad Vacation Packages

The restaurant was advertised as being open until 2100 on a Sunday. We arrived at 2000 to be told it had shut at 1900. There aren’t many other options in Sortland on a Sunday evening and no other compromise was offered by the hotel staff, despite the fact they were still providing food to a coach party beyond 2100.

The property is well appointed and very nicely curated in a beautiful setting. The proprietor is very friendly and extremely helpful. For us it served as a very nice base while we explored the area for a few days. What is not immediately obvious from the photos is that this property is right next door to the owner's house which really limits your privacy somewhat. It is also located next to farmland (which is pastoral and beautiful) but during our stay they fertilized the fields so we couldn't spend any time outside on the lovely back patio or open the windows. Not the Owner's fault of course, but something to bear in mind. We would also suggest that the linens be updated somewhat. Given the price we were paying we would have hoped for something a little less "family summer house" quality. As compared with other hotels in the area however, we would stay there again.

We could not have had a better visit to the hotel. We call for a shuttle and it arrived very promptly and we were looked after extremely well in all the visits to this hotel. Currently 4 visits😎
