Furu Hostel  |  Hostel in Bostad

Very cozy and relaxed place. It is a hostel with some full equipped cabins attached - very nice staff and VERY relaxed atmosphere

Since it was a late check-in, I didn't get to meet the staff, but they were really thoughtful and left the notes and room key in the check-in box outside the café. The cottage for four was super spacious and had that cozy cabin vibe, but the heating inside wasn’t quite enough. There’s a nice terrace, but with all the snow, they hadn’t cleared it, so we couldn’t open the door to enjoy the view. One cool thing is that they have a shared space for guests to chill and mingle. Plus, there’s a sauna nearby where you can relax in a comfy, quiet environment and even catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights.

Friendly staff and volunteers. NOTE: The kitchen is only open from 8am-10pm. The door is locked after these hours making it extremely inconvenient for those who wake up early for a morning hike or those who arrive late and want to prepare a meal. You cannot access your own food when locked and there are no alternative fridges in the hostel. There are no exceptions. The laundry is only open from 4pm. You are unable to do any washing in the morning. There are no exceptions. If you decide to bring alcohol, you are not permitted to store it in the fridges in the kitchen. There are no other fridges for storage. They don't like their patrons to consume alcohol within the hostel and ask that it is consumed outside by the lake. Not sure how this works during inclement weather conditions. There is no 24hr common area with other fridges or kettle. If you decide to do your washing, you must pay a fee for this. They will ask you to tip them upon payment. If you decide to use the Cafe, they will ask you to tip them, once again. This is not a budget friendly hostel.

Beautiful place, great common area both inside and outside. We had late check in and it worked great. Cafe is delicious, loved the sauna and the apartment room was comfortable and had outdoor space as well.

Very cozy. Residence have access to drying room and kitchen

Very nice stay and lovely people. We had the chance to discover and there is place for everyone : from shared kitchen exchanging experiences in foreign languages to nice dinner enjoying home made food after a wonderful sauna with view lake and lake swim…. Rosa sunsets with the lake….I hope we could come back.

Excellent accommodation and location. Stagg were very friendly and accomodating. We stayed for the opening night of the restaurant and were nit disappointed!

Wonderful place with friendly & helpful staff. And Northern Lights appeared on our second night there.

Liked the lakeside location and coziness. Stayed in one of the double bedrooms 3 nights. Everything was good but there are signs letting you know of quiet times due to noise carrying throughout the building very easily. Unfortunately, not everyone adhered to the quiet times and I was woken up multiple times throughout my stay with people moving around, talking, and slamming doors. Something to consider if you’re a light sleeper.
