Stay close to the ocean, the mountains, and everything that makes Lofoten one of Norway’s most iconic destinations.
Lofoten Apartments sits right by the water in the quiet village of Hopen – a central yet peaceful location between Henningsvær and Kabelvåg. Once a 1946 fish processing plant, the building has been carefully restored and transformed into modern seaside apartments for travelers who want comfort, nature, and adventure within easy reach.
Wake up to open sea views, rugged peaks, and Arctic light that shifts throughout the day. Whether you’re here to explore or unwind, this is the kind of place that invites you to slow down while still keeping the best of Lofoten close by.
When Erik & Fredrikke discovered the abandoned building in 2014, it was little more than a forgotten piece of history. But they saw potential – a place where travelers could experience the same feeling that made them fall in love with Lofoten years earlier. Today, Lofoten Apartments includes three modern apartments and The Basement, a newly renovated gathering space with a professional kitchen, fireplace, and long table for up to 16 guests. It’s perfect for families, retreats, workshops, or groups wanting a shared space after a full day of exploring.
Their original vision remains: to give visitors a front-row experience of how wild, beautiful, and inspiring Lofoten truly is.
Each apartment blends Scandinavian aesthetics with warm, natural materials, creating a calm atmosphere that mirrors the landscape outside. Inside, you’ll find:
a fully equipped kitchen for cooking local seafood and slow breakfasts
a cozy living area designed for relaxing after long days out
fast WiFi
panoramic views across the sea and mountains
a private terrace perfect for summer evenings or northern lights season
The apartments are equipped for both shorter stays and longer trips, giving you the freedom to settle in and truly experience Lofoten at your own pace.
Hopen offers something rare in Lofoten: a quiet, scenic setting that’s still close to everything. From here, you’re only minutes from the lively cafés, art galleries, and fishing village atmosphere of Henningsvær, as well as the heritage and coastal paths around Kabelvåg.
Yet when you return to Hopen, you’re met with calm – open sea, mountain silhouettes, and a sense of space that’s becoming harder to find in Lofoten’s busier hubs. It’s a location that allows you to experience the best of the region without being surrounded by crowds.
Lofoten is known for its dramatic landscapes and year-round outdoor possibilities, and staying in Hopen at Lofoten Apartments puts you within close reach of them all:
kayak or paddle between islands
go fishing for cod in the open sea
hike scenic trails with wide-angle views – view this link for one of the most famous Lofoten hikes: Festvågtind
surf year-round at Arctic beaches
join a RIB safari to spot sea eagles up close
try rock climbing, horseback riding, or scuba diving
explore ridgelines or go ski touring in winter
And of course, depending on the season, you can experience the Midnight Sun or hunt for the Northern Lights right from your terrace or the shoreline below the apartments.
Whether you’re looking to unwind by the sea or fill your days with adventure, Lofoten Apartments provides high-quality, seaside accommodation in Lofoten that puts you at the center of it all. If you would like to get to know Lofoten better, discover our ultimate Lofoten travel guide.
