Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a convenient location near the main train station, perfect for exploring the city. The rooms were quite small but clean, and the service was friendly. The dining options were satisfactory, and the hotel's facilities were well-maintained.
The hotel had a few drawbacks such as noisy rooms, incorrect room assignment, and the need for renovation. However, the staff was polite and helpful, and the location was perfect for exploring Oslo's main attractions.
I requested a quiet attic-style room and despite the non-room controlled air conditioning, the room turned out to be peaceful. It was clean, overlooking a central atrium and away from street noise. However, the location can be noisy at night, affecting sleep quality.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were very clean, but a bit stuffy with some noise from the street. The service was friendly and helpful despite some delays in clearing tables. The location is very convenient, right opposite Oslo Sentral station, though it can get loud due to nearby karaoke clubs. The dining experience was amazing with a wide variety of choices. Overall, a good value for money stay.
When we first arrived, the rooms seemed small, but they turned out to be just right for our needs. The quiet room we requested was sparkling clean and neat, a true haven. The price should ideally range between NOK 1,200 and 1,600. The hotel service was extremely helpful in every aspect, offering a range of amenities from dry cleaning to a welcome drink. The location, just across from Oslo Central Station, offers convenience for exploring the city. The dining experience was stunning with a variety of healthy options. Overall, a great stay with some minor room for improvement.
