Likely a norm in Norway, but we couldn't get past the size of the room. We almost had to brush each other's teeth it was so tiny. If you can't afford to stay in a nicer place with reasonable room sizes, I'd consider shortening your stay purely for sanity's sake. The breakfast was good - which is important considering the...

Hotel managers, chains in particular, always focus on how to make the enterprise a profitable one. That's an understandable, even acceptable notion, but it is also a tricky one. Because if they, as in this instance, only keep the focus on putting a maximum number of single beds into miniscule rooms without a trace of hospitality or athmosphere, the guests... More

Single room was tiny with no view, but actually had almost everything I needed, including free wifi and a very comfortable bed. Only thing I missed was aircon. The location can't be beaten, being just a few metres from Karl Johans Gata, ten minutes from the waterfront, tourist information office, hop on hop off bus stop and a few metres... More

The location is excellent being close to the city centre. Being so close does have its downsides. Saturday ight very very noisy with the nightclub and bar next door. The other nights were fine. We had a family room which was a very good size. Breakfast was very good for the class of hotel. The rooms was clean and bed... More

I was there in the beginning of June 2011 for 1 night, the hotel is small but clean with friendly staff, nice small-size breakfast , free wifi and it's close- 1 min walk to Karl Johan Gate and the restaurants and bars in central Oslo. I liked Oslo so much that if i come back for pleasure i'd stay there... More

Speedy in and check-out and friendly service. Good central location. Room was one of the best I've stayed in on the 6th floor. Probably lower floors do not have the same standard. Tea and coffee making facilities, good shower room, large double bed. Breakfast wasn't the largest selection but more than adequate. Good with early start at 6.30 and not... More

Yes, my small room was tiny - i.e. a narrow single and a small studio room. But it's a no-frills budget travel option with friendly helpful staff, quiet central location and inexpensive. So no complaints. If anything, they had a nice big breakfast spread and everywhere I wanted to get to was a short walk. I took some walks in... More

Wow, what a disappointment. The location of this hotel is great, really perfect. Smack in the middle of the city centre, about as close as you can get to everything. I'd know, I grew up five minutes away and only recently moved away. The sad thing is that the good things stop at that. My boyfriend and I first entered... More

After staying in many different hotels in Oslo, I always look for my new favourite - the one that stands out. I booked Rica Travel Hotel based on the reviews here at Tripadvisor, but I had no expectations other than the location beeing good. However everything from contacting the hotel, the director Ulf - to checking in - breakfast -... More
