Worked great for a business trip n

My first room was on the 5th floor and it was very warm. I was moved to a room on 3rd floor and a major difference. Comfortable temps. Slightly smaller but worth the trade off. Staff is very friendly. Great breakfast spread and hotel is super convenient to transport.

Excellent place to stay for our few days in Oslo. Just steps from the train station and a main stop for trams and busses. The staff were friendly & helpful, the place was clean and the breakfast was a great way to start the day. Found the room to be small, but that might just be the case in central Oslo. The room was also warm and the only way to cool it off was to open the window. Given the hotel’s central location, it was loud on a Saturday night, with the window open. When closed, no real noise problems. Would definitely stay here again.
