Excellent central location, friendly helpful staff, clean, well appointed rooms and a wonderfully generous breakfast buffet (with plenty of labelled gluten free options). We stayed in a basic room that was ideal for our four night stay to explore the city.

Stay here if you’re visiting Oslo.
This hotel is in a great location. It is walking distance from a lot of shops, the train station, and the Royal Palace. Easy access to public transportation. Staff provided great service, the room was very clean, and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast was delicious as well. Highly recommend you stay here if you’re visiting Oslo.

Great hotel at an amazing location
The hotel is a nice part of time close to the harbor. It is a bit of a maze inside the hotel and the gym facilities are limited. The breakfast is really amazing. Excellent for American standards. People are friendly and a late check out at 2pm was possible without cost.

What a location, right in the middle of all the tourist attractions. So easy to walk or catch the metro to any of the sights we wanted to see. And the staff were fabulous. Shame no restaurant for dinner as the breakfast was wonderful, but plenty of options around the hotel for eating.

Great looking hotel in great location. We had a larger room with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the pretty park opposite. This was a highlight for us as nice to sit and sip on a wine and watch street below. Was surprised and disappointed that as part of my VIP package that my 2 x free beverages (no conditions in booking) equated to a bottle of water or coke only. Upon asking why not a glass of wine or alcohol i was advised in Norway free alcohol is not promoted. My view was it was complimentary (i received complimentary drinks in Bergen Norway?). This needs to be reviewed as misleading. Other concern was no top up to tea or coffee pods on the 3 days we were at hotel. Breakfast quite comprehensive so no complaints there. Overall location and hotel great, customer service not at level of any other hotels from our 3 week Scandinavia holiday. PS: steer clear of Scotsman bar nearby, the barman is rudest person I've ever dealt with. Was also rude to my wife and online reviews are terrible.

The hotel was easy to find and convenient for public transportation. The state opening of Norwegian parliament happened right outside our bedroom window which was a pleasant surprise. The fact that you could open the window was a bonus. It is a city and there is noise with the window open. General traffic noise and passers by talking and then a couple of buskers last night in the parliament square - we quite enjoyed it.
