Simple, easy and very pleased with my stay sums it all up. Very friendly staff, both reception, restaurant but also the maid! Very good! The only complaint I can think of must be the annoying little tractor running up and down in the near-by parking house, but that is really not the hotel's fault is it.. :) needless to say,... More

Good hotel located within walking distance to offices in the area. Some of the rooms have been upgraded to a modern standard (possibly only the ones facing towards the main street??). These have a modern bed, chairs, TV, desk, etc. The bathrooms however are the same in the modern and old rooms. Note that shops and restaurants in the area... More

The hotel looks quite fine and the rooms are decent (although the bathroom had a part of a tile missing...). But if you're unlucky, you get a room faced towards the E18 (highway). The trucks could easily be heard from my room due to bad window isolation, which made it difficult to sleep.

Not exactly in the center of Oslo, but conveniently situated near the Skøyen station, from where you get to Oslo center within 10 minutes. The hotel is a bit hidden.
