Daniel, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Easy to find and a great location. Only challenge for us are the trams, we live in the countryside at home, but we did get used to it. Staff could not be better and the breakfasts as are good as you’d get anywhere at this price. If we return to Oslo we’d definitely stay here again.

Good breakfast. Pleasant stay.

Great place to stay near good transportation hotspots. You can easily walk to downtown and even the sea side. The place is super quiet and well isolated, I had great sleep. The breakfast are amazing for the price of the hotel.

10/10 Exceptional

A really cool hotel. Absolutely loved our 2night stay. Very stylish and welcoming. Gave us a lovely relaxed feeling. Good location to walk to main shopping area & restaurants. We had a rental car but airport shuttle bus stops opposite front door. Staff were super nice especially Leo on front desk. Helpful local advice and on arrival told me where to park on street next to hotel which was free after Fri 4pm and Sat&Sun. Saved me about £70😉 We recommend this hotel and would definitely stay again if in Oslo 🇳🇴 Norway is simply stunning. Best touring holiday we’ve had after 35 years together!! 10/10 from both of us. 😎

10/10 Exceptional

Really great staff. Everyone went above and beyon

They originally gave me a street view room but I was worried it would be too noisy. Valentina said she’d get me a quieter room and she did. Blackout curtains and inside garden view on 5 th floor. It was very quiet and spacious. It was a bit cold at night in May so they brought in a space heater. The breakfast was great and had something for everyone We loved the assortment of breads, cereals, meats, salad's fish and cheese. You won’t go hungry

Ok hotell.

Flott opphold på hotellet. Litt slitt hotell, men veldig god seng.

8/10 Very good

Check in was great with English speaking staff and very helpful. Room was a twin with tea/coffee and beds were comfy . Bathroom was small but shampoo/body wash Inc . Breakfast was fantastic and I would give it a 10/10 . Hotel is a 10 min walk to centre
Kenneth, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location, but not usual Scandic standard.

Great location for central Oslo. Just be aware there are tram lines outside but not too noisy. Rooms are fantastic in size, but why oh why do you make the bathrooms so small when you have so much room? Shower is crammed into the smallest corner. As a seasoned travel breakfasts are important. You need a good start to the day. This is where it went wrong. A hot breakfast should be WARM, there were ice cubes in the scrambled eggs, and cold sausages and bacon? Come on it’s not difficult to keep food warm. Major Minus points for that. Please fix that!

Slitent hotell. Trangt bad. God frokost, noe utstyr i treningsrommet!
Kristin, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Good breakfast

Although the breakfast is tasty and has a large selection (fresh vegetables, fruit...) during the week it only lasts until 9:30 (a little too short) and after that time the lights in the restaurant are turned off and the food is taken away. The room is tiny, without a kettle or coffee machine. The bathroom is also tiny. My room had windows facing the street and it was very noisy due to the trams. The reception service was very nice, helpful and professional. She provided us with boiling water, so we could store our luggage longer without any problems.
