"It was a great location, near the Oslo Airport. Even though you could see the runway and planes taking off, due to their excellent insulation and great windows, noise was never an issue. Staff were very helpful."

"The hotel has a wonderful history. We enjoyed our stay and the breakfast was wonderful. We did make use of the front balcony. It was nice to see Oslo in motion from that standpoint. Our room was very small so I would look into a larger room for our next visit."

"The rooms were a bit crowded, or tight, with not much space between the end of the bed and the desk and the cabinet with the fridge in it. I never like a step up into a bathroom but it wasn't so high as to be a problem."

"Staff were excellent at check in ensuring we had a packed breakfast (since we left before breakfast started) and offering dinner reservations due to a full hotel. Room was a good size with nice shower, mini fridge and comfortable bed. Shuttle from airport runs until 1am and starts leaving hotel at 330am. Shuttle does cost 80NOK each way. They do provide coffee and tea in lobby but sadly no take away cups for early mornings."

"The hotel is beautiful, staff are all very friendly and helpful and breakfast is excellent. The rooms are not the quietest, with noise from the street audible in our room on the 11th floor but this is minor and didn't detract from the stay. I would absolutely stay here again when we're next in Oslo."
