Easy to find and a great location. Only challenge for us are the trams, we live in the countryside at home, but we did get used to it. Staff could not be better and the breakfasts as are good as you’d get anywhere at this price. If we return to Oslo we’d definitely stay here again.

A really cool hotel. Absolutely loved our 2night stay. Very stylish and welcoming. Gave us a lovely relaxed feeling. Good location to walk to main shopping area & restaurants. We had a rental car but airport shuttle bus stops opposite front door. Staff were super nice especially Leo on front desk. Helpful local advice and on arrival told me where to park on street next to hotel which was free after Fri 4pm and Sat&Sun. Saved me about £70😉 We recommend this hotel and would definitely stay again if in Oslo 🇳🇴 Norway is simply stunning. Best touring holiday we’ve had after 35 years together!! 10/10 from both of us. 😎

Really great staff. Everyone went above and beyon

They originally gave me a street view room but I was worried it would be too noisy. Valentina said she’d get me a quieter room and she did. Blackout curtains and inside garden view on 5 th floor. It was very quiet and spacious. It was a bit cold at night in May so they brought in a space heater. The breakfast was great and had something for everyone We loved the assortment of breads, cereals, meats, salad's fish and cheese. You won’t go hungry

Great location, but not usual Scandic standard.

Great location for central Oslo. Just be aware there are tram lines outside but not too noisy. Rooms are fantastic in size, but why oh why do you make the bathrooms so small when you have so much room? Shower is crammed into the smallest corner. As a seasoned travel breakfasts are important. You need a good start to the day. This is where it went wrong. A hot breakfast should be WARM, there were ice cubes in the scrambled eggs, and cold sausages and bacon? Come on it’s not difficult to keep food warm. Major Minus points for that. Please fix that!

Kan anbefales.

Jeg og min datter var på Oslo-tur og bodde på Holberg. Betjeningen var veldig hyggelig, og vi fikk sjekket inn før tiden. Rommet var rent og pent, med alt vi trenger. Litt bråkete rom da det vendte ut på gaten og trikk etc. Veldig god frokost. Alt i alt er god opplevelse og kan absolutt anbefales.
