This property is a gem. Beautiful outside with lots of sitting options. Staff is amazing and your 2 meals and snack was a great option and the variety and quality was wonderful. Transportation (tram) nearby to get into downtown. Very quiet at night. Beds were comfortable. We had a twin room which was a good size. Amenities in the room were sparse. A kettle with instant coffee/tea, not a lot of storage but everything else made up for it. We would absolutely stay again. FYI, for those booking soon, there is a bit of road construction all over Oslo neighborhoods but it didn't bother us at all.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Food was excellent and staff very helpful. Our only minor complaint was that the water in the bathroom took ages to run hot and went cold quickly

Great home hotel!

We had a fantastic stay here. The front facing large room with a balcony was a real great experience for us. The location is very convenient with the tram station for #13 right at the corner. Breakfast and dinner provided by the hotel were all excellent. They are cautious about gluten intolerance, so I had no difficulty eating their meals. Strongly recommend!!!

Excellent hotel near the centre of Oslo. It’s in a quiet area but is walking distance to the centre and has public transport links via the nearby tram stop. The hotel itself is quiet and cozy with great amenities. Both breakfast and dinner were great with a good selection - dinner was more than a ‘light meal’ so ate there every night!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room was crowded by the double bed and a bit unique being right off the stairwell, but I liked the high ceilings and the bathroom was a decent size. Having both breakfast and dinner included was a nice perk, and there were good selections available on the buffets for each. The hotel is in an older building in a neighborhood setting which is nice, and it's within walking distance of the Vigeland Park. While I was there, though, the street in front of the hotel was all torn up with some kind of road construction, and it was difficult for my taxi to get to the front door. The staff was very helpful and it was a pleasant stay.

The hotel is in a pleasant residential neighbourhood of small houses. I walked a lot but there is a tram stop nearby. I was in a single room, small but comfortable and not claustrophobic. Great breakfast, there is also an option of dinner and an afternoon "Fika". Also a drinks bar. The staff is always available and responds friendly to any question. A real pleasure for those who like a special and intimate hotel. Not cheap like all hotels in Oslo but very warmly recommended.
