The staff were quite nice. It was pretty hot for our two day stay so we were happy for the fan they provided. We appreciated that the room was spacious unlike the hotel rooms we stated at in other Nordic/Scandinavian countries. The Breakfast buffet was really good; excellent variety, healthy, and delicious. It was walking distance to shops, key attractions, and public transit. It was convenient that a train stops right outside the hotel, however on my last night it was too noisy for me and prevented me from getting a proper nights sleep. If I’m ever in Oslo again, I would definitely stay here!

We booked an economy double but our room was quite large with a balcony. The bathroom was too small. Bathroom door would need to be left open when sitting on the toilet. Our room was on the street so was very noisy with the trams running until about 1am and starting again at 5am. We got very little sleep. I asked at reception if it was possible for me to change rooms as I hadn't slept. It was then she told me that we had been upgraded on check in. The very nice receptionist gave me a room to look at on the 5th floor at the back of the hotel. It was a smaller room but nice size bathroom and very quiet. I was happy. We slept well the 2nd night. Breakfast in this hotel was lovely. Very nice staff topping up coffee. Would stay again as long as it was a room to the back of the hotel.

A really cool hotel. Absolutely loved our 2night stay. Very stylish and welcoming. Gave us a lovely relaxed feeling. Good location to walk to main shopping area & restaurants. We had a rental car but airport shuttle bus stops opposite front door. Staff were super nice especially Leo on front desk. Helpful local advice and on arrival told me where to park on street next to hotel which was free after Fri 4pm and Sat&Sun. Saved me about £70😉 We recommend this hotel and would definitely stay again if in Oslo 🇳🇴 Norway is simply stunning. Best touring holiday we’ve had after 35 years together!! 10/10 from both of us. 😎

Easy to find and a great location. Only challenge for us are the trams, we live in the countryside at home, but we did get used to it. Staff could not be better and the breakfasts as are good as you’d get anywhere at this price. If we return to Oslo we’d definitely stay here again.

Really great staff. Everyone went above and beyon

They originally gave me a street view room but I was worried it would be too noisy. Valentina said she’d get me a quieter room and she did. Blackout curtains and inside garden view on 5 th floor. It was very quiet and spacious. It was a bit cold at night in May so they brought in a space heater. The breakfast was great and had something for everyone We loved the assortment of breads, cereals, meats, salad's fish and cheese. You won’t go hungry
