Reviews and Ratings
I stayed at this hotel for a getaway, and it was a mixed experience. The rooms were comfortable and spacious, offering a lovely view of the dock and our DFDS ship from the 4th floor. The bathroom was nicely appointed and the space was ample. However, the dining experience left something to be desired, especially during busy times. The location, close to the central station and main attractions of Oslo, was convenient for exploring the city.
The hotel was centrally located, close to transportation and attractions, with good service and a few minor drawbacks. The rooms were decently sized for solo travelers, though a bit dark and could benefit from soundproofing. The service was pleasant overall, especially in the breakfast area, though some staff seemed overstrained and not very customer-friendly when handling issues. The hotel's dining experience was satisfactory but could get crowded during peak times. The location, despite ongoing redevelopment, was convenient for accessing the central station and sights like the Opera house and Aker Brigge.
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, though slightly small and cold, feature adjustable electric hospital-style beds and a nice range of Ritual toiletries. The service is exceptional with helpful and friendly staff, offering amenities like dry cleaning and pet services. The location is central, just a short walk from the main train station, despite some surrounding concerns. The dining experience is top-notch with a variety of delicious options. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were not big but adequate for one night, cleanliness was below my standards, and the view was disappointing. On the positive side, the room was ready upon arrival.
The hotel's location is convenient, close to the main railway station, and the rooms, although small and lacking air conditioning, were upgraded to a deluxe room. The service was exceptional, with a kind and responsive staff, though some confusion around payment card details. The dining offerings were enjoyable and included in the room price. The location is central, offering easy access to key attractions but the surroundings are a bit seedy. Overall, a good value for the price paid.
The hotel location is a major plus, with easy access to tourist spots and attractions. The rooms are simple but may not be ideal for couples with a lot of luggage. The service was exceptional, especially when we had to cut our stay short unexpectedly. The dining options were varied and satisfying. However, some additional room decoration would have been appreciated.
