We were impressed with the location, it’s on the tramline and really convenient to get all over the city. The team went past the window and could be heard from the room but we really enjoyed the sound of it.

Able to check in early. Friendly, helpful staff. Be aware, like many European hotels, there is no A/C. We were supplied a fan, which was very much appreciated. Breakfast was delicious.

Great hotel and amazing breakfast

Warm welcome despite the early hour. Great mini shop in foyer. Buffet breakfast was amazing. Great location for trams and walking into town.
Jan, 3-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.
