“Perfect location, fabulous breakfast.”
Excellent location by Oslo Central Station and the main street (Karl Johans Gate) that leads to the palace and a short walk from the harbour for the Munch Museum and Oslo Opera house. Standard room is quite small but works fine. Fabulous breakfast at Egons, next door to the hotel. Price paid for a stay in May seemed good value for money.

No forewarning of the strike and not having a room cleaned once in a 5 night stay was a bit much

“Convenient and comfortable option for a short stay in Oslo”
Perfect location, just next to the train station, also a few steps away from the Opera. Rooms were clean and comfy. Good food at the restaurant next to the hotel.

“Much better experience than I expected.”
I think every aspect of the hotel was great: location, breakfast, staff, comfort of the room etc. The view of the room was the bonus. I believe all these positive aspects minimizes the importance of the size of the room, since it was a bit small.

“A great stay, will choose it again. Don't get the breakfast.”
The room was clean, comfortable, quiet, and a good size. The staff were kind and accomodating, absolutely zero complaints there. The location just cannot be beat, and the views from the room were lovely.
