For those who care about the environment, choose this hotel: one of the few hotels to have the ISO 14000 certification for their operations (they have a concrete environmental plan and are audited on their actions regularly.) For instance most of their breakfast ingredients are organic (bio). The shampoo is in a refillable container on the wall (they don't throw... More

Stayed 2 Nights with a Mate for the recent England game! Room was spotless and the Breakfast was very nice- Little bit of 'Home from Home' with a Hot option available. The Hotel can best be described as having 'character'. We were on the 5th Floor and had panoramic views of the Building Site right next to us (Although we... More

In a city as prohibitively expensive as Oslo there can be few better options than the Clarion Hotel Bastion for a three night stay. This centrally-located hotel (10 minutes walk from the main station) offers an inclusive breakfast buffet, free 'make your own' pancakes in the afternoon between 3pm-6pm as well as a complimentary buffet between 6pm-9pm. With a basic... More

The rooms were lovely. We had a superior room for 3 of us and there was lots of room. it was only 10 min walk to central station and Karl Johan Gate, with loads of shopping, and easy access to the trams and busses. The best part was the complimentary meals as food in Norway is super expensive . The... More

It's not a big hotel, but it's very nice and cozy. It's only a 10 min walk to the Oslo central station, which makes it very convenient. There is a vinmonopolet inside the station to buy wine if you need any. I stayed for one night in one of the bigger rooms on the 8th floor, with a queen bed,... More

Room is tiny but well equipped and cozy, very forthcoming staff, complementary delicious titbits in the evenning, complementary hot beverages throughot the day, free wi-fi and excellent location. The icing on the cake are the free waffles in the afternoon. My son loved it. Would definitely come back. Look out for combo-deals, e.g. with Color Line to get bargain prices.

We arrived in Oslo this past Wednesday evening by train and walked to the hotel we had booked online(considering the great reviews here). As we walked along Skippergata, we were dismayed to see many drug addicts along this street, and a very depressed neighbourhood. Needless to say it was quite a contrast to the beauty of the fjords in Flam,... More

I must remind you- In order to review a hotel on Tripadvisor, you have to try the hotel. As i read and understand from our receptionist, you never even saw our rooms or tried our... More

My husband and I just stayed here for one night. The room was enormous, clean, and very comfortable. Our suite had two full bathrooms, one with a big jacuzzi tub and a candle holder even! The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. We had the evening buffet, which was totally adequate and plenty of food for a light... More
