Very nice hotel. Breakfast was good, but not extraordinary. Decent gluten-free options. Unlucky for me, the "smart" tv in my room was not smart enough to connect to the internet, and did not work at all. Staff was overall excellent.

The hotel, in general, is just ok. Positive: location and the awesome breakfast. Negatives: very small room; no amenities at all (not even a kettle, and they charge you for a cup of tea!); there's no wardrobe in the room or even space to keep your bag, I've found this very strange; room needs some maintenance; we opted for a daily 'refresh' cleaning, but all they did was to replace the bag in the bathroom bin.

When we arrived, it was raining and we thought we were in the middle of nowhere. The Hotel was a little blah from the outside. However, as things cleared, we realized this is a pretty funky part of Oslo with a river running through it. Have dinners at the big food hall next door--they're delicious. Walk on the river path. Eat at Bonderibyen Olso, and check out the area.

The hotel is modern and laid out very well. The rooms are clean and very quiet with thick double glazing. The room was warm too which was good as cold outside. We didn’t like the ‘separate duvets’ on the double bed but apparently this is a Norwegian thing. Not having any wardrobe or drawers was odd but luckily only a few days so kept things in the suitcase or on the small space for hangers. Breakfast was wonderful, highly recommended.

We had such an amazing stay here. The breakfast is amazing, our room was very clean. It’s about a 20min walk to the centre. The only con is that the room could not be colder than 22 degrees Celsius - you should be able to adjust the temperature in your hotel room within a range. Our other scandic in Sweden allowed you to go to 18 degrees.
