“spacious room, good location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 June 2013

This 3 star hotel located in the heart of Oslo. It is only a 5 minutes walk to the main shopping thoroughfare - Karl Johan's Gate. Our standard room was not readied by the time we checked in. The staff offered an upgrade for NOK250 per night for a superior room and it was available at that time. We opted... More

“Pleasant in Oslo”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 June 2013

The hotel is very good located close to most obvious travel spots in Oslo. If you come via the airport, the place to get off is Nationaltheatret. From there, the hotel is about 650 meters away. The hotel has a smiley atmosphere and the staff was very welcoming. It provides most features needed when being on a business trip, including... More

“Great location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 May 2013 via mobile

Great hotel, great staff, very convenient (right across the street at the Radisson Blu) from the last SAS flybussen (airport bus), good sized room, very good price - and great if travelling with pets. Great location as well - about 500 meters to the Royal Palace, Historical Museum, National Gallery and National Theatre. Will be staying here again when back... More

“The big breakfast!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 April 2013

The bad point: DON'T RELY ON THE WAKE-UP CALLS!!! I asked for a wake-up call 3 times and only one I got to be woken up! The good points: First, the BREAKFAST. Varied and plenty of good food, including fish of course. The waiters were very attentive and nice. I stayed for five days, and it was OK. Wi-fi in... More

“Nice staff for sure”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 April 2013

Good location, just across the last stop of SAS buss from the Airport. Great breakfast, especially the fruits and freshly squeezed juices. The staff at the lobby is great, very helpful and friendly. The only problem…bathroom is too small, (including toilet), very very small… very uncomfortable So, maximum of stay 2 days

“Central location, nice rooms and staff”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 March 2013

Booked twice, but the first time they were overbooked, and we were directed to another hotel. This time they offered an upgrade to a bigger room for a small amount. Quite, clean room. Short walk to the train station with direct train to airport

“Comfortable and friendly”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 March 2013

Centrally located - just where the airport bus stops and a short walk from the harbour/shops/museums. Excellent breakfasts, friendly service - it is the first time I've ever been asked whether I was content with a shower or would prefer a bath, and I appreciated that. My room was not large, but it was plenty big enough, everything seemed very... More

“A quiet room in a quiet city”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 March 2013

I stayed here for a couple of nights during the middle of the week. Not the largest room in the world nor the biggest bathroom but very comfortable, warm and quiet - the very thick door helps. I was offered a room at the front or the quieter back. In fact the only sounds you can hear from the front... More

“Excellent value for money in a pricey city”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2013

Clean, comfortable room. On the small side, but adequate and functional room with a comfortable bed. Almost half the price of the hotel where others in my group were staying and I think I had just as good a night's rest! The breakfast is kind of reminiscent of a school cafeteria - not very charming - but the food was... More
