Great location in central Oslo

Arrived by train, this hotel was connected to the station by a shopping centre. Very central location minutes form the opera house and Munch museum. All staff spoke English and the breakfast was the best I’ve had in a hotel. Room was small but adequate.

Super convenient hotel right next to the train station and located downtown Oslo. The room was clean and the beds comfortable. The breakfast buffet was absolutely AMAZING!!!!!! There was something for everyone. From crepes to scrambled eggs to cereals to fruit to croissants to fish and vegetables, it was a feast! Absolutely delicious and the staff were super nice and welcoming. The only thing negative we need to mention is that, being right downtown Oslo, the noise level was quite high up until midnight.

Breakfast was chaos and maybe some planning would help that improve. It is obvious how many people are there so should be possible to cover the run

Nice cosy hotel in heart of Oslo

Hotel location is excellent, right in the heart of the city next to Central station and connected to a mall. The rooms were tiny but tidy and well maintained. Breakfast buffet and Egon restaurant was fantastic for a 3 star hotel. Only downside was room cleaning which was rather poor.

Dirty toilet and clogged drains.

Toilet was dirty to an extent it seemed it didn’t see a proper clean in months, it was similar to a very dirty public toilet. Shower cubicle drain was clogged so water would build it. In order to prevent water from building up, we had to have the water opened very little, making it extremely difficult to have a decent shower.
