Lovely setting, plentiful breakfast w lots of choice (no rotten or mouldy food while I was there, to address earlier reviews). Staff are very helpful and the grounds are beautiful. It’s not central, but is good value. Easy access to public transportation. Kitchen is clean and well equipped and breakfast meal service is good.

The towels we got were dirty and stained. We could not use them. We took pictures and went to the reception to get new towels. The gentleman refused to give us towels as he wanted proof that the towels were not cleaned by their cleaning contractors. This shocked me. I gave them the original towels and finally got fresh towels.

Beautiful stay, good breakfast and super helpful receptionists!! Cleanliness and services were perfect! Location is the only setback as you almost have to climb a mini mountain to get to the hostel but once you’re up, it’s worth it all! Overall stay was great!

Great Experience

My brother and I are backpacking through Europe and we stayed here for 1 night. It was out favorite spot we’ve stayed. Staff were very pleasant and the rooms were very clean. Temperature was nice and they gave us a room to our selves. The breakfast was also a nice addition, nothing over the top fancy but most places like this don’t even do that! If you’re just backpacking through, highly recommend!

Great Budget Stay with Beautiful Views – But Plan for Transportation. I stayed at the HI Oslo Haraldsheim Hostel and had a comfortable and pleasant experience overall. The hostel offers a free breakfast each morning, which is a great way to start the day. There are also snacks and drinks available for purchase in the lobby. The rooms are clean and come with a sink, while restrooms and showers are located in separate shared spaces. Note that there are stairs to access different floors, so if you have mobility issues, it’s worth requesting a lower bunk or a more accessible room. One thing to keep in mind: the hostel is located in a residential neighborhood that doesn’t have any food options within walking distance. It’s also a bit far from the city center, so you’ll likely need to take a tram, taxi, or Uber to get around. On the plus side, the hostel has a large outdoor yard where guests can relax or enjoy a game of yard chess. Overall, it's a great value if you're comfortable with hostels and are okay with using public transport. I’d definitely stay here again with proper planning.

Good hostel

It was a great to stay. What you expect from a hostel, with free lunch, you can't complain either. But it is near a main road which you can hear throughout the night and out of town. However, that isn't the hostels fault and public transport in Oslo is brilliant.

The room was a good size and clean. The bathroom and shower were easily accessible, just outside the room. There was a laundry which was really helpful. The property is 15-20mins out of the city but there is an easy train or tram down the hill.

Good hostel

Great hostel for what it’s worth. Breakfast was included by default, which included a series of breads, meats, and some vegetables and drinks. There is no AC so it can get a bit warm in the summer, and the community bathroom got dirty easily due to a leak in the sink. Otherwise, it was great. Linens and towels were included by default and check in even at 1am was good; the receptionist on the phone instructed me where to go. It’s about a 10 walk down the hill to a tram or bus station, the latter of which has direct lines to/from airport (nearly 1 hour).

Zeer grote hostel, goed en praktisch maar ver uit het centrum. Er is wel een goede busverbinding naar het centrum. Bij het boeken kon ik kiezen voor een kamer met 3, maar bij aankomst kreeg ik een kamer van 6 en bleek het niet mogelijk om een kamer van 3 als dorm te boeken. Ik zou kunnen wisselen naar een kamer van 4, maar de hostel was volzet.
