What a wonderful hotel! The front desk staff are amazing! We had an issue unrelated to the hotel (crashed iPhone) and they worked with us while we got it resolved. We so appreciate their kindness. The breakfast buffet was great and the room was beautiful and comfortable. We’ll definitely stay there again on our next visit to Oslo!

Among Oslo’s best hotels

Excellent hotel. The highlights are the comfortable beds and the Karoline breakfast. Not so good would be loud music on the weekend and sound from the tram in the mornings.

Ideally located in the center of Oslo. Easy walk through the Christmas market, and five minutes from the piers hosting fjord cruises. Breakfast was perfect, plentiful options - fresh juices, broad selection of cheeses, pastries, etc. Concierge was phenomenal at locking in a multi-course dinner, same day. Room was immaculate.

This hotel is very well-appointed with a helpful staff. The problem (hence 4 instead of 5 stars) is that it is like 2 hotels. The first night my room faced a major turnaround that has the constant (all night) noise of trams - it has a turnaround for them in addition to being along tram lines. If you want a quiet place to street you need to ask NOT to face this street. After a sleepless night I asked to change rooms and was put in a very quiet room facing the courtyard. At that point it was an exact opposite experience. Apart from that, the hotel is extremely well-appointed in terms of amenities in the room - and the on-site restaurant is lovely. It is near a harbor with lots of shops and restaurants, as well as the National Museum. All in all, the experience was terrible the first night, but turned wonderful as soon as I changed to a much quieter location.
