Being so centrally located (right opposite the main railway station) you might not expect such a cosy hotel, but despite being quite big, it is very welcoming. Rooms are not modern in style but all the furnishings are new and the standard of decoration high. Some of the rooms are quite small, though others are enormous. You wouldn't stay here... More

Helpful friendly staff. Excellent location, walking distance from main train station, buses and tram stops. Rooms were good size as well with a bit of a view down the walk street. The breakfast is excellent with a wide choice of hot and cold food. The Standard Room, did not have tea/coffee making facilities. More

We stayed here for 4 nights during the WC in skiing 2011. It couldn't have had a better location. Just a few step to the train station where we could get directly to Holmenkollen. Great breakfastbuffet,and very caring and friendly staff. More

I was in Oslo work over a weekend. The hotel was a welcome Oasis in this cold (and very expensive) country. Rooms were perfect; staff professional and polite; location great; and the breakfast was exceptional! Only compliant was the bar outside the hotel (across the street) that played karaoke (very loudly) until 4am. Request an inside rooms. More

This hotel is in a good location for trains and buses,however it is also the ugly part of town.Reception staff are slow. The rooms are small and comfortable,a sauna is available from 5-11pm. If you want charm this is not the place. The best part of this hotel is it's great breakfast.The breakfast staff are particularly helpful and quick. Close... More

Just opposite Oslo central station, you couldn't ask for a more central location. Easy to get around on foot and very brightly lit and safe at night. i was concerned it might be a bit noisy, but had the best sleep ever on super comfy beds. the rooms are very large, but it was the service on the front desk...

I ran out of hot water in the shower after less than 10 minutes. Otherwise a decent bathroom, but with low water pressure. The superior rooms are very spacious, but cheaply decorated and quite dark. Nice and comfortable bed as well as a cosy sofa group. There is no iron, and one cannot borrow one from the reception (I was... More

Located only 2 minutes away from the railroad station, this hotel is a good choice especially when arriving with a late train or leaving early. I left too early to have breakfast at the hotel, but when I mentioned this at the reception the night before, they offered to make me a breakfast pack to take with me the next... More

We are a family of 3 persons (husband, wife & 14 year old daughter) and spent a night at this hotel on 19 July 2011. The hotel location is just great right near the Central railway Station and within walking distances from Oslo cathedral, Parliament, Opera, Royal Palace etc. Situated just about 100m from Karl Johan Shopping Street, this hotel...
