    The room we stayed in was fantastic - the modern design with wide wooden floors really stood out 🌟. It's conveniently located just minutes away from the train station, which was super handy.

    Good looking and very fancy hotel with great facilities and customer-facing employees at the restaurant and reception desk. Location close to the restaurant in the evening, and the main Oslo museums...

    That was awesome. One of the best hotels in my life. 1. Location is the highest score. 10 minutes leisurely step from the station. Get out of the station on Karl Johans gate, walk in a straight line and after a few turns, turn left on Kongens gate and follow it, on the right side there will soon be a hotel. I bought coffee from the Starbucks at the station and brought it to my room - it didn't even have time to cool down. It's very close to the fortress and observation deck. 2. Terrific staff. Friendly, polite, cheerful, atmosphere is wonderful. Once my card did not work, I came back for a new one, so the receptionist then called and asked if everything was okay, if there were any other problems. 3. number is fantastic. Perfectly clean. Plenty of room. giant bed, five soft pillows. sofa. Closet. Safe, fridge, iron, ironing board, fridge, slippers, bath accessories, hair dryer, lot of different towels. Hot floor in the bathroom. Excellent plumbing, strong water pressure. Everything works perfectly. room has different modes of lighting. There are mirrors everywhere, full-length front door, whole bathroom wall, in the hallway... 4. Nice design in the hall. Cozy twilight, candles, in the street real fire on coasters. nice atmosphere. 5. New elevators. 6. fast wai file. signal is strong, you can both work and watch or listen to music - everything goes perfectly.

    Sincerely, it was a brilliant stay at my next visit-which will be soon. Everything was modern as expected, nevertheless the bathroom was very dark. This hotel was located in a central area right by the major attractions in Oslo and shops / restaurants / bars. I ate in the rooftop restaurant nearby.

    The location is perfect. I had an event at Gamle Logen and was less than a five-minute walk away. It's also about a 10-minute walk from Central Station. The reception staff is very friendly. The check-in was supposed to be from 3pm and if you came in earlier you paid for every extra hour, but I arrived around 12:30pm and, as the room was ready, he let me in without paying anything extra. In fact, as there was availability, he gave me a slightly superior room without paying more . The breakfast is buffet style and is very good.

    There was no lunch service, only dinner, but in front of the hotel there is a small restaurant with organic food that offers a great variety of dishes and also has takeaway food: everything is very tasty and healthy. Normally there is a rooftop bar, which apparently is among the best in Oslo, but it was not open yet (they open from mid-April to mid-September) . There was no gym or swimming pool

    I booked a standard room, but I was checked into a huge attic suite, nothing extra... Magnificent beds with a foot and headrest, chic bed linen... Equipment room, a lot of space - living room and bedroom, a huge corner sofa, a large table with 6 chairs, 2 TVs. Refrigerator, safe, desk, shelves, tea set, capsule coffee machine with a set. Excellent bathroom. Dressing room. Excellent ventilation system... Interesting design of the hotel as a whole... Incredibly varied and rich breakfast, all delicious. The ability to make your own coffee in a French press of several coffee options... Location in the heart of ... At the top of the veranda bar, nice and cozy to relax in good weather.

    There's a complicated lighting system in the room, I'm having a hard time going... The room is huge and relatively small window - it's dark, the bedroom has no windows at all... The hotel has no restaurant for lunch, but there are many restaurants nearby.

    Excellent location, clean rooms, modern conceptual design, silent.

    Extremely small shower space (smaller than 1m2), the breakfast could have been better.

    Good breakfast, hotel has a modern look-and-feel.

    I had a room without curtains seeing out on the lobby, did not feel confortable. Also shower did not function in the beginning, and lightning system very complex.

    The location was absolutely perfect, close to Akershus Fortress and all the highlights in Oslo city. I liked the room, it was well-equipped, nicely decorated, and had a Scandinavian decor.

    Great location, lovely roof top bar, nice rooms except for color schemes

    Strange color scheme, dull colors, need to brighten up reception area and rooms
