Clean room. Perfect location to walk around a lot of great touristic spots. The Staff was very kind and helpful. Breakfast was delicious. Only a little problem with a damaged lock in the bathroom door but not a great thing. In general, the experience there was great.

Great location. Staff was helpful in every way. Breakfast was fantastic. No air in rooms so it was a little stuffy but they have fans. The halls n lobby have air. A tiny bit noisy with the buss trams but that didn’t bother us too much as we were out early daily to explore. Would stay here again for sure.

We stayed at the hotel for four nights and found all the staff very helpful and courteous. The room was a great size. Both the room and bathroom were very clean. The breakfast was absolutely fabulous. It was out of the center of town and was more on the quiet side, but was nicely located to access trams and busses. I would highly recommend this for a future trip.

I really enjoyed my stay at the Scandic Holberg. The room was gorgeous - spacious and I loved the sky lights bringing in natural light. The bed was very comfortable. The daily breakfast is amazing! Wonderful to see so many guests there each morning enjoying it. A highly recommended place to stay - close to the tram and local sites!

Clean, quiet, air conditioning, good breakfast, nice location near the Royal Palace near a good neighborhood (St. Hanshaugen is nearby). Standard sized room provided enough room for luggage and one chair for someone to sit, along with a fridge. It was also about a 10-15 min walk from the National Theater transit location, which was convenient. Recommend!

The hotel is in a good location in that you can reach most of the sites in the city within a 10 to 15 minute walk. The breakfast is great and the staff is very helpful. I had a handicap so it was nice of the stop to upgrade me to a bigger room. Be aware if you have a handicap that there are a couple of steps you will have to navigate at the entrance of the hotel. Once you are inside the hotel, there are ramps where necessary.
