Eliassen Rorbuer

Eliassen Rorbuer is set in Hamnøy in Moskenes municipality — a collection of the iconic red rorbuer (fisherman's cabins) that have appeared on millions of postcards and Instagram photos from Lofoten. The complex is one of the most photographed locations in the Lofoten Islands and has made Hamnøy Bay a symbol of Norwegian coastal and fishing history. The rorbuer themselves are authentic fishermen's cabins from earlier centuries, restored with modern facilities while keeping their historic character and signature red facades. Many cabins have access to a shared sauna facility — an essential experience after a cold day in the arctic climate — alongside a kitchen, living area, and private bathroom. The complex also has a restaurant and a bar focused on local seafood and traditional Norwegian cooking. Eliassen Rorbuer holds a 9.2/10 average rating across 844 Hotels.com reviews, and is particularly popular with photography enthusiasts, anglers, and northern-lights chasers. The position near the Norwegian Telecommunications Museum and the Stockfish Museum adds cultural depth, and Reine and other outer-Lofoten attractions are within a short drive. Free WiFi and parking included.
