Don’t recommend for families

You know it’s a lovely hotel but I wouldn’t recommend it for a family at all. We stayed for a night after a ski trip before our flight back late the next day. The room itself was nice - we all watched a movie on a big TV (streaming), beds were comfy and the room was a good size. The view from the room was terrible - inward facing to air con units. The main entrance and shared areas are dark, uninviting and not very nice tbh. The worst problem though - I booked this hotel for our 14 and 10 year old to swim with us in the pool but they get 2h on one day at a set time and you have to pay for it! And also pay for all our breakfasts at a high price. I wouldn’t stay here again. Really unimpressed. And not worth the price tag I’m afraid.

The staff were incredibly attentive and helpful. The lobby bar and library were ideal for meetings over tea or drinks. The rooftop bar added another dimension. The food was fantastic. The room was spacious and beds very comfortable. I highly recommend this hotel to business travelers.

A nice hotel very convenient for all Oslo has to offer. Close to train station and other transport options. Breakfast was very busy at the weekends and queues were a result. The food could have been much hotter. I would not expect to pay extra to access the pool in a five star hotel. Room service was very quick and the food tasty.

Natalya

Disliked: Cleanliness
The property itself is beautiful and in a great location, but there were some significant downsides to my stay. First, the room was a disappointment. It looked nothing like the photos advertised, it was very basic and lacked the charm or luxury I was expecting based on the images. Additionally, the design of the hotel is not practical for travelers with luggage. There are stairs in the hallway, which made carrying my suitcase incredibly inconvenient. I would not recommend this hotel if accessibility is a concern. Lastly, cleanliness was an issue. When I checked into my room, I found hairs in the bathtub, which left a bad first impression regarding the hotel’s attention to detail and hygiene. While the overall property has potential, the experience fell short of what I hoped for. Improvements in accuracy of photos, design practicality, and cleaning standards would make a huge difference.

The hotel was “good”. Was probably great in its earlier days, not that happy with management, I was in a business trip and booked 3 days, circumstances changed and I needed to modify my reservation, Management said no, so I had to pay for a night I did not use. That is a first in a very long time where the hotel didn’t work with me.
