Everything is great about this hotel, with the possible exception of the breakfast which is a bit too focused on healthy alternatives. The area is a bit dodgy after hours, but that is more than balanced by the fact that is situated very close to all public transportation close to the CBD. The decor is trendy but dark and with...

This was a nice hotel. Stayed there 2 days in May. Excellent location, very comfortable, spacious rooms. Best of all was the breakfast. So many choices of delicious food. Very friendly breakfast staff, and so many options of warm and cold snacks. One of the best breakfasts I have ever had at an hotel. Pity other hotels don't have the... More

I stayed at Clarion Collection Hotel Folketeatret for one night on a business trip. Arrived fairly late at around 9 pm and was greeted by a really friendly staff. Check-in was quick and easy - and I was encouraged to try their complimentary dinner buffet - something I really appreciate. The room and bathroom was in a modern style. Everything... More

A great hotel located near the city centre. The room we were in was quiet, located on the third floor. Clean, standard hotel room sized. No noise from the streets or any other rooms. The service was great, we felt very welcome. Good breakfast buffet with a wide selection, and the hotel also offers a complimentary supper from 1800-2100. A... More

I chose this hotel due to good comments on Tripadvisor and due to the description of the hotel (also by itself) as one of the most prestigious hotels in Oslo. It was a big disappointment. If you don’t look at the objects in the hotel room closely then u say:"Oh thats a modern nice hotel with a minimalist design. Not... More

I have recently spent three weeks in Norway and used the Clarion hotels on three occasions. ALL were good in there own way but the Folketeateret was in its class quite exceptional. Friendly and efficient is only one way to describe it - there are many more. When we were confronted with a major travel disruption they could not have... More

The hotel is extremely well located for metro, bus terminal and all the tourist locations. The décor is modern and dark - certainly the first time I have had candle lit breakfast (no natural light- ground floor) The food choice was excellent. Dinner which is offered on a complimentary basis is served on the 7th floor (plenty windows this time)... More

A very comfortable hotel in central Oslo. Good working space in the room, solid internet connection and all the things one needs in a room for a stay. Friendly staff and an excellent breakfast in the attached restaurant.

We stayed at a Clarion Collection hotel in Tromso which was brilliant so picked this one in Oslo. If you use Gardermoen airport just get the local train to Oslo, takes 23 minutes, costs 90 Kr. Don't get the Express it's 200Kr and only 8 mins faster. In the extra 8 minutes plan what to buy with the money you've... More
