“Great place to stay to explore Oslo”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I was in Oslo work over a weekend. The hotel was a welcome Oasis in this cold (and very expensive) country. Rooms were perfect; staff professional and polite; location great; and the breakfast was exceptional! Only compliant was the bar outside the hotel (across the street) that played karaoke (very loudly) until 4am. Request an inside rooms.

Room Tip: Great location by bus station and center to all activities.

“Great breakfast”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

This hotel is in a good location for trains and buses,however it is also the ugly part of town.Reception staff are slow.
The rooms are small and comfortable,a sauna is available from 5-11pm.

If you want charm this is not the place.

The best part of this hotel is it's great breakfast.The breakfast staff are particularly helpful and quick.

Close by is the Bacchus cafe, has good service,pretty location and OK food.

“Brilliant central location, great staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 September 2011

person found this review helpful

Just opposite Oslo central station, you couldn't ask for a more central location. Easy to get around on foot and very brightly lit and safe at night. i was concerned it might be a bit noisy, but had the best sleep ever on super comfy beds. the rooms are very large, but it was the service on the front desk that really made this a great experience. They girls were so friendly and full of recommendations - very helpful. The buffet breakfast is quite extensive too!

“Only cold water in the shower after less than 10 minutes”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 September 2011

I ran out of hot water in the shower after less than 10 minutes. Otherwise a decent bathroom, but with low water pressure. The superior rooms are very spacious, but cheaply decorated and quite dark. Nice and comfortable bed as well as a cosy sofa group. There is no iron, and one cannot borrow one from the reception (I was asked to use the ironing room instead).

“Close to the railroad station”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 August 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Located only 2 minutes away from the railroad station, this hotel is a good choice especially when arriving with a late train or leaving early. I left too early to have breakfast at the hotel, but when I mentioned this at the reception the night before, they offered to make me a breakfast pack to take with me the next morning. I'm generally not a big fan of floor carpets in hotels, but apart from that, I liked this hotel, and wouldn't mind staying there again.
