Excellent location - can't be beat. The hotel is full of historic charm. Our room was quite small and the bed wasn't exactly comfortable, but the ambience of the rest of the hotel made up for any shortfalls. The restaurant has a lot to choose from for breakfast (included in the room rate).

Centrally located , a couple of minutes stroll from National Theatre station. Old style class, with greetings by doorman. Efficient check in. We had a deluxe room, very spacious with couch and desk area. A bit gloomy as it looked on to a central courtyard and a lot of light kept by skylight above the restaurant. Large and very comfortable... More

At the start of my trip I stayed at the radisson blu plaza, small room, ordinary location. I booked the grand at the end of my trip for something different and was pleasantly surprised. The location was great, the room a great size and the bed was a proper king, not 2 singles pushed together which is common in Norway.... More

We arrived around 7AM after a long night train travel from Bergen and were very happy to be allowed to check-in right away. We had a nice room at decent size with quite comfy bed although the linen was a bit harsh to my taste. Lightnings were a bit weak and we couldn't get a room with city view. The... More

I stayed at the Grand on 2 occasions and would stay there again for it's very friendly and helpful staff and great service. The hotel is a historical building that has kept it's charme by not modernising it too much with over the top renovations. The Grand cafe where you have your breakfast ist the nicest I know so far,... More

Being allowed to check in early after the overnight DFDS ferry from Copenhagen was an immediate plus in this large, comfortable, elegant hotel. Our room was huge, the breakfast buffet varied, with delicious eggs, cheeses and pastries, and the concierge staff all very friendly and helpful. If you like classical, older hotels in fascinating European cities, the Grand will not... More

We are in a Jr. Suite-lovely! There were no bellman to assist us with our luggage as we exited a taxi. Just arrived and feeling refreshed after a long bath. There is some sort of protest or focus outside with clapping and people gathering. Don't understand a word!

Perhaps I've been spoiled by the boutique hotels. Orbitz gave a good price on the air plus hotel, including the Grand Hotel, and I went for it. It's another big old hotel with tour groups. It has the location. If you want to be in the middle of the restaurant and bar scene in Oslo, you couldn't ask for more.... More
