Great location, walking distance to many attractions, but loud at night on the weekends . The basics rooms are so small you have no room to expand your language. The upgrade rooms are a good size. Basic continental breakfast, decent coffee and great customer service . The employees are friendly and helpful house keeping and front desk

Very nice hotel, it’s in a great location. There is free late checkout on Sundays till 6pm which is amazing. Make sure to let staff know when checking in so they can apply it to your room card. Close to main train stations and other transport links. On the shopping street and easy to get to other attractions as well by walk. Breakfast buffet was very good, limited veg options but still very delicious. Hotel was great and staff were friendly.

Ideal location. Solid hotel. Some awkwardness.

Friendly staff and excellent breakfast. Stayed three different days during our trip. Mostly for familiarity and ideal location. Only issue was last day. Signs everywhere say check out is at noon. However, at 11, your key card is turned off. Almost lost our stuff! Also, one of the staff walked in on us changing to “change a battery” and did not want to leave even though we said she could not come in. Made for a very awkward moment.

Excellent location. The hotel has easy access to shopping, dining and tourist attractions. I liked the vibe when you checked in.. The receptionist welcomed us nicely and kind..such a sweet lady.. The free dining offered is superb.. All the staff are helpful except for one evening receptionist who I think needs to improve her customer service attitude.. Shout out to Lena and Andra in the reception, Marichu and Maria in the dining and Yahu housekeeping. They did a very good job to keep the guests comfortable and had wonderful stay..Very well recommended hotel to stay..

VERY POOR SHOW

It is the first time for me, who has travelled for over 30 years, to stay in a hotel room that did not have a phone to connect with the front desk. For any requirement or information, we needed to go down to the ground floor. There were hardly any amenities except for towels and toilet paper, and liquid soap. Could not connect our devices to the TV. The beds were not comfortable, and the family room we stayed in was extremely congested. Not enough room to store luggage to hand our clothes. The buffet breakfast that was offered as part of the stay was the only plus I can say about this hotel. I WILL NOT BE STAYING HERE AGAIN

Lovely fresh hotel with nice clean rooms. In a good location and a lovely breakfast, ideal for our 3 night stay in Oslo. Check-in experience was excellent, very welcoming. Nice bar alongside the hotel, not a lot of choice for food but reasonably priced and excellent quality.
