There's some Whisker IoT LoRa module that claims to have better shielding than the hopeRF one - but is pricier, and I'm not sure if it's shipping yet (they ran a KS a few months ago). It also has additional firmware layered onto it, which may be good or bad. I didn't read much about it, but google will find.
I would support @allObjects in recommending LoRa.
Even with cheap Chinese modules I've got 350 Meters from my home in a residential area. Indoors I can't find a place where it won't work :)
These modules are popular http://www.hoperf.co.uk/shop/RFM92W-868S2-RFM92W_868S2.html BTW if your considering this module for commercial projects I've been told it will fail EMF testing.
