We are on road for more than two weeks and switched hotels almost every night. Thon hotels are the ones that we felt most comfortable so far.

This hotel is fantastic! Very friendly staff, extremely comfortable beds, small but clean & stylish rooms, and the best part is the breakfast — an elaborate spread that keeps you full for hours! I absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Oslo. It is also super well located.

Excellent location but that means it was very noisy from street noise. The room was hot and needed to leave the window open for air.

Great location but construction
Great location, the free breakfast was great!
Everything was very walkable from the hotel.
I didnt give them 5 stars because there is a lot of construction in the building so it can be loud and we asked fr our rooms to be near each other and no one saw that in the comments until we arrived and it was too late to accommodate.

Nice, clean hotel. Best location. Everything is in walking distance: museums, ferry, shopping.
Public transportation is very good in Oslo. Airport express takes only 30 minutes to the Theater stop, and 7 minutes walking to the hotel from there.
Very good breakfast with great variety, friendly staff.

Excellent hotel
Loved everything about this place - nice location and rooms, excellent staff, great breakfast. Only issue was my junior suite was above a club that played music until 3am. Luckily it was more of a piano club so no drums, but still interrupted my sleep
