average standard, not very clean room and the "fitness centre" was a big joke! (just a treadmill & spinning machine) My room was paid for by my employer - but I will never stay here again. Excellent location next to Norway trade fair & Lillestrøm train station (direct links to Oslo aiport & Oslo city centre). The front desk staff... More

The hotel is located just a couple of blocks from the Lillestrom train station, which makes it easy to travel to Oslo and to the airport. Nice and spacious common areas, better than average restaurant, and very nice breakfast buffet. For more food choices you will have to walk downtown; it's a short 10 minute walk. Rooms are quite small,... More

I came to this hotel after another hotel in Oslo sent me here when they made a mistake in their reservation system and sold me a room that they did not have available (long story, but we were about 7 people in this same predicament). At first I was apprehensive as I needed to be in south Oslo and Lillestrom... More

A bit surprised to see the latest reviews. Have used this hotel a couple of times due to lack of rooms in Oslo - and due to the hotel. a) Non-stop trains run every 10-12 min. during rush hour. They will bring you directly to Oslo in 20 min (incl. a 6-8 minute walk from the hotel). Buy a ticket... More

we were a delegation of six looking for a hotel to stay in during the CW23, for various reasons the hotels in Olso's city center were already fully booked so we were put into the Thon Hotel. The good things first: +) it is conveniently close to the Lillestrom train station, a direct train goes every 20 min or so... More

Well if this hotel is number 1 in Lillestrom, God help the rest! A catalogue of errors by this hotel means it gets a 1/5. 1. A lengthy check-in queue being handled by 2 staff. I had to make my first complaint within 5 minutes of entering the hotel. 2. The hotel room was extremely warm - opening the window... More

This hotel I choose only because it is close to exhibition center and really clean. Very good breakfast and you can arrive to second floor to restourant only with an elevator, which can be operated only by a room door card. Really friendly staff as I got some wireless cards against my company souvenirs. Also parking was Ok here. More

Hotels in Norway are always expensive, and this was not an exception. But since the difference between hotels in only few hundreds of NOK, why not to choose the best ones like this? I was in a business trip and choosed this hotel because of the good location - just next to exhibition center that I had to visit. Everything... More

Before staying here, I received some literature that was ambiguous as to exactly how close the hotel is to the Lillestrom conference center. So, just to emphasize: the hotel is indeed immediately adjacent (as in, 100 feet or so?) to the center. And it is a very quick stroll from the train station: no problem at all, unless it is... More

This hotel is not ideal if you want to visit Oslo, as it is in Lillestrom, and you will require to take the train to get to Oslo and back, which can be frustrating if you come back late. However, it is very nice and incredibly clean! The room looked like it was new, although the hotel has been opened... More
