We arrived Oslo on Dec. 25 by train, walkable from the Central station. The Christmas market at Karl Johan Gate was right outside the hotel. Great vibe. Hotel facilities are excellent and the included breakfast was awesome. Out family had a wonderful one night stay.
Our stay was excellent! Our room overlooked the Christmas Market and Winter Festival. All of the staff, from front desk, housekeeping, breakfast personnel, were friendly and helpful! Made our trip most enjoyable and pleasant! ❤️
Great location however the hotel was not worth the price. Didn't even have a proper mattress just a thin mattress topper. Was not comfortable at all. No drinks in the mini bar fridge, not even water. Had to carry 2x 30kg suitcases up stairs as lift didn't go all the way to our room. Not worth the price in my opinion
The property was excellent, clean, great location and they offered healthy breakfast with good gluten free options. The breakfast staff was very friendly and helpful; however, we had an unpleasant experience with Anita at the front desk. She was rude and very reluctant to help, short tempered and when we ordered breakfast to go for the last day, the request was for three people and two had to be gluten free. When we got downstairs on 11/30/2024 at 7 am all breakfasts had gluten. The front desk man was so sorry for us that he run to the kitchen and got us some gluten free goodies. I would definitely recommend this hotel, however there are three people who work the front desk that probably need more training. Everything else was very good.
