"An amazing place with a fascinating history and incredibly beautiful surroundings. The staff were mixed - some excellent, some medium. The restaurant is an beautiful environment with views of the forest on 3 sides. The food there is fine but extraordinarily expensive, e.g. $60 for an open face sandwich."

What is a historic hotel like in Oslo?

The two are similar. The term "historic hotel" is more common in the U.S., while "heritage hotel" is often used in Asia and Europe.
