Stepping into THE THIEF is sure to rob you of something. Something familiar and shall we say, enslaving at times. And the thing is that the hotel is so good at it… that you might not notice until the end. You suddenly find yourself engaged in a world of new impressions: cutting-edge art, architecture and world-class gastronomy.And then it hits you, what’s been stolen from you…you haven’t had a single thought about your very long to-do list, the responsibilities at home, the everyday worries.

Hotel's Favorite
It's difficult to compare THE THIEF to any other hotel in Norway, as it is quite a unique little gem in the hearth of Oslo. I've stayed at THE THIEF once before, but I've worked at the hotel as a photographer before a couple of times. All times I've been really impressed by the service, the staff and facilities available. The ambiance and feel of the hotel is unique, it's modern, relaxed and contemporary. I've stayed in a Premium Room on the 8th floor for a couple of nights, and it's probably one of the best rooms I've stayed in at any hotel. Bed is excellent, and facilities otherwise are great. View and balcony has a unique view over the fjord and Tjuvholmen. When I've worked here we've been working in a couple of the conference rooms and in the Oslo Suite. Both stunning locations for both work and pleasure. I've stayed here only during the pandemic, which might make the stay a little amputated. The spa was closed and only open for individual treatments, and breakfast spread might be a little reduced. Anyways, it's always comfortable staying at THE THIEF, and I'm looking forward to staying here again.…

Our stay at The Thief was perfect - absolutely faultless. All the staff were welcoming and very helpful. The hotel itself is stunning and in a beautiful part of Oslo. The room was well equipped and spotless. We are at the restaurant for dinner and breakfast - both of which were superb.

Positive: Nice hotel in a great location, with attentive staff and a good-sized room. Negative: * Difficult to figure out how to turn the lights on/off in room/bathroom * A very disappointing lunch! The other hotels in this chain have great lunch buffets. However, The Thief served a TINY portion of creamy (and nice-tasting) risotto, with a mid-size chicken breast, dry-cooked with crispy edges. There was no salad, no side-dish and no bread. Our party of approx. 15 people left the restaurant starving... * The prices in the bar: 175 NOK for a small glass of house red??? Go figure... The poor rating given is no reflection on the staff or the surroundings. But given the cost of this hotel, you should be able to expect leaving the restaurant satisified. Personally I am embarrassed thinking about foreigners visiting our country, having to pay around 20 euros for a glass of wine...…
