the area was quiet and everyone was so nice and helped me out when I needed it. I was there for about a week and I enjoyed it a lot. They have food options around which is at the bottom of the steps near the hotel that was nice. Everything was cleaned correctly when needed as well.

We had a good stay at the Vulkan although the room was looking a little “tired” round the edges. For a hotel that would be used by a lot of tourists, they had a strangely early breakfast time during the week - finishing at 0930! Location is excellent however with easy walking distance to Grunerlokka for great bars/restaurants and even into Oslo city centre along the Akerselva river.

Scandic Vulkan Oslo is awesome

The staff was very helpful and friendly. The location was excellent, convenient to sites and public transport. It was a great walking area, an interesting and safe place next to lots of restaurants and shopping. The breakfast was absolutely wonderful! A great stay.
