Hotel has the best location for airport and all local transportation. Very easy to get around town from this location. Delicious buffet breakfast, food for all cultures and tastes, as much as you want to eat. We ate at early time and at peak time and had no problems. Ours was a standard room, recently renovated. It was smallish but... More

I was in Oslo for about 16 hours and needed a hotel that was central and easy to find. This hotel was both, about a 2-minute walk from the central train station. A quick check on Google Earth the day before told me which direction I needed to exit the station, and street view told me what to look for.... More

I would not stay here again and the reason is the poor value for money. I came down for Breakfast at 7.50 only to find the area over-crowded, no white bread left, only hard or rye bread, no tea mugs left, only minor coffe cups, no large plates left and various food items missing from the buffet. The staff was... More

Over all pretty ok hotel. But the rooms should be nicer for the price they charge. Allthogh clean, my room was ver worn and should need some renovations. Location is great. It's really close to shopping and train station.

Great location 2 minutes from the airport express. Friendly service and nice rooms - the suites are really good. The breakfast is excellent in the large open restaurant. I always stay at this hotel when I am in Oslo.

I usually have good experience with Clarion hotels, but this one was not great. Crowded and noisy breakfast setting, lights not working in the room, slow and silly elevators and a hard bed. The service was good however, and plus for having a minibar

I am currently check in the hotel. Horrible service. No power in the room n they don't care. They make you wait n just say they will send someone repeatedly. They are not apologetic. N their attitude belongs in the worst possible hotel. What a shame!!

I stayed at this hotel in June 2013. I arrived at the hotel around 5pm and was checked in fast. I had to admit that I was surprised when I walk in to my room; this is definitely one of the biggest rooms I have received ever in Norway, must have been at least 50 square meters, and included a...

2 minutes from Oslo central station, and easily walkable to many sites, eg National Gallery, Historical Museum etc. We arrived on the first Saturday evening of June - and were treated to a lot of loud heavy rock from a concert outside somewhere. Apparently, there are lots of concerts all over Oslo on the first Sat of the month. Luckily... More
