Kulturverkstedet

Arctic Highway


By the same people who brought you Café Kulturverkstedet, these five guesthouses scattered along Sjøgata can be wonderfully atmospheric places to stay. The decor is, in most cases, delightfully retro and hence won't be to everyone's taste – take the time to go through the pictures on the website to find a style that suits. Reception is at the cafe.
