The staff that runs this unique, neat, and tidy hostel truly respects the history and culture of their hometown of Narvik, Norway. They welcome guests as family, feed them well, and even provide access to the historic church attached to the hostel.

This is a really nice basic hostel. Great staff. Comfortable bed with good bedding supplied. Good shower. Nice common room areas. Great breakfast included in the price. Although it is between the road and the railway line I slept well.

Amazing breakfast and friendly and chatty staff

The friendliness of the staff and the amazing breakfast are two of the highlights of this hostel. The breakfast is outstanding and was included in the price I paid. I remember having crumbled ham, grilled potatoes and prawns fried in garlic butter at breakfast, in addition to the usual cold breakfast options. Highly recommended. The cook deserves high praise for the excellent breakfast. The staff, many of whom are high school students, are very friendly and chatty. Do remember to pack a pair of flip-flops as shoes are not allowed into the hostel rooms. And the communal kitchen can be in a different wing of the hostel from where you are staying. The hostel is conveniently close to the bus-stops for buses going to (about 200 meters uphill) and from (just across the road) Bodo/Fauske.

Mattress uncomfortable needs replacing as springs hurt and it is not flat. Check on late because of private function, sent text at midnight to say breakfast the following morning was elsewhere because of another function. Why do Kate they would have known. Poor communication.

Gemytligt hostel

Ett trevligt hostel centralt i Narvik. Vårt rum var litet men hade allt som förväntades. Trevligt med lakan och frukost. Köket nar lite slitet och stekpannorna har nog sett Diana bästa dagar, men annars fungerade det fint.

Boende i sjömanskyrka
