Hotel berhampiran Kragstøtten, Oslo

Hotel is good quality, good location, staff are nice. But the most important thing of this hotel is that they feed you a GOOD breakfast and dinner, with tea and cakes in the afternoon as well. This is important because food in Oslo is EXPENSIVE and difficult to find. You might look at the cost for a night, whatever it is, and think ”Ah, too high, I'll pick a cheaper place”. But eating in Oslo either means 7/11 hot dogs, or meals that will set you back 20-30 euro per person. For every person who stays at the hotel, you say up to 50 euros in the cost of feeding that person, unless you want to exist off of sandwiches and hot dogs. Consier that when buying. Breakfast was a traditional Norwegian meal with all types of good breads, jams, cheeses, fish, plus yoghurt, cereal, eggs, bacon, croissants, and more. Lots of it was quite uniquely Norwegian. Dinner had delicious meat, potato, soup, bread and veggies. Seemed fairly Norwegian. Warning, it was the same each night though. My friend and I found both very delicious, I could not imagine somebody complaining about either, unless they stayed for a full week, by which I could imagine getting tired of the food by the end. Eat well at these two meals, and all you'll need to spend money on food during the day is perhaps a sandwich. Norwegian food is ”meh”, you're not missing out on anything by not eating out. Other reviews can tell you about the hotel itself, it's a nice hotel, same as nice hotels anywhere, including many others in Oslo. But not having to worry about food was by far the biggest relief, and made this unique. Consider that when picking hotels, because picking a hotel thats 30 euro cheaper a night won't be worth it if they don't offer breakfast or dinner.

Very helpful staff and great place to stay in Oslo. Close by the bus and tram stops. Everything was tidy and clean. Highly recommend!

The hotel is very near all landmarks and easily accessible by train stations and tram. It’s a self check in hotel. The bed and pillows are very comfortable, tho the room is quite small so if you have two big luggages then its already crowded. At the lobby is a bar that is open til late at night and in one night of our stay, there was commotion and so many police came around 3am. It woke me up because of the loud noise of people shouting etc.

Went for a concert- hotel was clean beds were comfortable and shower was hot breakfast was awesome the tv in room didn’t connect though the only down side. I would definitely stay again

知名的挪威連鎖飯店 離中央車站很近是最大優點 房間大且舒適 但整體飯店設施並非最新癮的 好處： 豐盛的早餐 大廳有免費水果與咖啡機， 熱茶可使用； 對於寒冷的北歐是一個好處； 離車站近是最大好處 壞處： 電梯不多 設備較有年代感 但房間基本上算新

Overall the environment is cozy enough but there’s some issues like the room had not be cleaned properly and there few items within the room is broken

I would really have liked to have given this a five star review, because the reception staff were super friendly, making sure I knew where the tourist attractions were and how to get there on my first day and letting me use the toilet when I popped back on my last day well after I’d checked out, as well as giving me a room with a phenomenal view of the fjord, but a couple of things took the shine off for me. One was the lack of air con. I mis-understood how hot Oslo could be, which is kind of on me and not the hotel BUT the DIY open window and fan arrangement weren’t entirely satisfactory, and while I was in my room, I never felt entirely comfortable with how hot I was. I guess the opposite could also be true if you can’t control how hot or cold your room gets in winter (when I assume my imaginings of snow drifts is actually a thing). Secondly was the breakfast. I can in no way fault the food - smoked salmon, scrambled eggs, bread, carrot cake (always a joy, whatever the time of day), melon, cheese and ham, but trying to find a table was sometimes impossible. It was particularly difficult for me as a solo traveller. It involved getting up early, crossing my fingers and piling everything on my plate in one go, just in case. Some days it was fine, but one day, after walking what felt like the entire length of the shopping centre getting increasingly dispondent, I had to perch on the end of a table with a group of pensioners who were staying there after two weeks travelling up and down Scandinavia together on train. Fortunately I am mature enough to be able to make small talk, but I can see how it wouldn’t go down so well with everyone else. Coffee was also a hit hit and miss - I was only offered some two out of four days. These little quirks are a real shame, because the location is great (handy for the train and city centre tourist attractions), and as I say, the staff on reception were lovely (and based on what I heard while I was standing in line, some of the other guests can be quite demanding). If I’m in Oslo again, I would definitely consider staying here again (but maybe bring a handheld fan or multiple layers of clothing, depending on the season) and maybe avoiding the breakfast.

Excellent location for direct airport transfers by express train as well as commuting around Oslo. Walking distance to POI as well as shopping belt. The hotel is only 5 mins walk from central station yet not affected by the bustle of the station. Self Check in was so super easy. We had a room on a high floor with terrace which had a vantage view of the central station. Room is clean & good size although the mattresses could be firmer. All things considered, a very good 3 night stay. Will definitely recommend!

This review combines both the hotel and the restaurant The Social Bar & Bistro. I had a really pleasant stay at this hotel. Check-in was flawless - I had the key within 30 seconds of arrival. My room was located in the south-west corner of the hotel. There was no noise from the airport, even though the runway was less than 500 m away. Everything was clean, the bed was comfortable and the minibar was reasonably well stocked. There was a balcony equipped with a small table and two chairs. I would have appreciated it if someone had removed the dust on the furniture. Also - there were bird droppings on the railing - it seemed that a clattering of jackdaws lived nearby. Please do clean the bird excrement. I visited the Social Bar & Bistro for an evening meal. I got seated quickly. There were not many guests - perhaps around 10. The waiter was quick and attentive. I chose the ”Catch of the Day” from the menu: Oven baked or perhaps fried salmon with oven baked small potatoes, vegetables and sauce. When it was served - to my surprise - it was really warm, probably straight from the oven. Nice! And it was really, really tasty. Unfortunately - during the time I was eating the main course - 15 more guests arrived, and service broke down, as there was only one useful waiter. I waited a while to order dessert, but it took too long so I decided to pay at the counter and leave. I parked my car at the hotel - NOK 345 for 38 hours.
