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.

Great location near Oslo S. Good breakfast and onsite bar with patio. Room was on the small side - which was made clear in the listing- but was well arranged and worked well for one person.

Stylish and welcoming reception/bar area, friendly staff and good general ambience, lots of nice design touches. The room was well-designed and the bed was comfortable, however we did find it too warm and there was a drain smell at times in the bathroom. Despite this, we had a lovely stay.

Christopher

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Conveniently located, close to the cental station and easy walking distance to all Oslo city centre attractions. Excellent breakfast buffet. Rooms were clean and fine for what we needed. Downside of central location was noise and music from nearby bars until late at night on weekends, and because the rooms don't have air conditioning you'll need to have the windows open, meaning you can't shut out the noise

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Expensive hotel that provides very little. Very small-sized room for an expensive two-bed configuration. No refrigerator. No room service. You have to ask to replace towels or room cleaning one day in advance. Not at all worth 300+ US dollars per night. There are much better options. Don’t go here.

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.

Posto tranquillo, centrale. Staff gentile e stanza pulita e silenziosa. La colazione niente di che, è servita nel bar sotto cui si accede internamente. Non conviene pagare la stanza con colazione inclusa: l'albergo ha cucina comune e distributore di bevande calde (economiche), dato che intorno ci sono molti supermercati (economici), se ci si organizza la colazione la si fa con pochissime corone

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..
