Very nice hotel. Breakfast was good, but not extraordinary. Decent gluten-free options. Unlucky for me, the "smart" tv in my room was not smart enough to connect to the internet, and did not work at all. Staff was overall excellent.

The hotel, in general, is just ok. Positive: location and the awesome breakfast. Negatives: very small room; no amenities at all (not even a kettle, and they charge you for a cup of tea!); there's no wardrobe in the room or even space to keep your bag, I've found this very strange; room needs some maintenance; we opted for a daily 'refresh' cleaning, but all they did was to replace the bag in the bathroom bin.

When we arrived, it was raining and we thought we were in the middle of nowhere. The Hotel was a little blah from the outside. However, as things cleared, we realized this is a pretty funky part of Oslo with a river running through it. Have dinners at the big food hall next door--they're delicious. Walk on the river path. Eat at Bonderibyen Olso, and check out the area.

The room we had was showing its age a little, lots of scuff marks on the floor and no USB fittings in there, with scratches on the plug fittings. Our children noted the showerhead in their bathroom fell down a couple of times and couldn’t be tightened. The breakfast spread was great though there was nowhere to sit, it was so busy. Shame there couldn’t be an overspill in the floor below or something. Good location near Grunerlokka and easy to get into the centre on a bus or a longer walk.

Pros: The room was very clean when we entered, the breakfast was absolutely amazing, and the staff were very kind and helpful. Cons: We didn't get any slippers, even when asked they said "we are ECO friendly".Housekeeping only changed the bathroom towels and emptied the trash, bed sheets/blankets weren't changed nor was the floor wiped/vacuumed. I personally don't mind if the bed isn't made everyday, but not cleaning the floor is pushing it especially when you don't get any slippers. 8/10

The hotel is modern and laid out very well. The rooms are clean and very quiet with thick double glazing. The room was warm too which was good as cold outside. We didn’t like the ‘separate duvets’ on the double bed but apparently this is a Norwegian thing. Not having any wardrobe or drawers was odd but luckily only a few days so kept things in the suitcase or on the small space for hangers. Breakfast was wonderful, highly recommended.

Nice Hotel, in an interesting district with great bars and cafe's. Really good Food Hall next to the Hotel. A short (2 stops) bus journey to the city centre or a 20 minute walk. Breakfast was excellent and all the staff very helpful and friendly.

The Vulcan area is conveniently located. The rooms are compact but contain all requirements. Breakfast although self service is well managed, with an excellent food selection and has a peaceful morning vibe. The Mathallen food and drinks area next store appears an excellent option for dining and socialising.

Pretty hotel in modernly developed area. Spacious rooms. Very good breakfast. No underground parking, but there is one nearby (expensive though). About 25m walk to the city centre and 7-8m cycling. Recommended for a short stay in Oslo

Great hotel. Frequent visitor, great breakfast. My only gripe would be to have blinds instead of curtains that don’t quite have the reach to block out the light. If you’re staying in Oslo in June bring an eye mask.
