Hotel berhampiran Rundtjern, Oslo

The location is great, right in the centre of Reykjavík, 5 minutes walk to reach the main attractions. The room was clean and tidy and there was a complimentary breakfast offered which was great.

My understanding, and that of a couple who shared the apartment with me was that we would each have a private room in a hostel. This isn't a hostel at all, the budget option is actually an apartment share which we were only informed of when we arrived. Firstly, I will say the bed was really confortable with nice linen and the space for my possessions in my room was good, a nice large mirror too. The kitchen was ill-equiped, the door on the fridge only sealed if I placed a chair against it, and the utensils and knives and forks etc were not adequate if the place was full. Could have done with being re-decorated as rather tatty. The bedrooms have windows into the main living areas, but not to the outside, so fresh air was limited, and with flimsy curtains over those bedroom windows there was less privacy than was optimum, particularly when sharing with strangers. The doors to our rooms were extremely squeaky. Three bedrooms share the kitchen/living area and bathroom, so up to six people which should be manageable but IT IS NOT A HOSTEL. There was no information at all concerning local amenities, and no cloths etc for keeping the communal area clean. I requested and received dish soap from reception and was given a towel instead of a cloth to keep the kitchen clean. No hand soap was provided as the dispensers in the kitchen and bathroom were empty, something that should never happen at the present time. Whether you share or rent self-contained accommodation for your own party greater attention to detail would greatly improve things.

In a city with expensive hotels without a good reason, I dared to tried the luxury package of this hostel: Own room with bath, linen (you still need to make the bed yourself) and breakfast. All for a reasonable rate of 850 NOK. The location is nowhere near where you are likely going, but it is possible to walk to/from the metro stop and Storo shopping centre if you're ready for 15 mins walk or so. The hostel is acceptable though totally without charm. The view from the window is over the parking lot but the room and bathroom feel sufficiently clean. Sleep quality is OK, some noise travels in the building and quite a lot of people hanging around. The breakfast is below expectation. Dirty dishes mixed among plates and cutlery make you think the attention to detail might not be there in the food either. You do not take a big breakfast here; just not feeling that hungry. The big plus is the price. But even given that, the experience is so-so.

Very good location to everywhere . 2 stops tram from main station. Walking to shopping street nearby. Clean hotel and the staff very friendly. Good breakfast also.

酒店非常暖和前台也非常好。設施齊全。早餐特別好吃。都是喜歡的吃的。離車站走路也不算太遠 總體來説很方便。

The hotel is great in general. I like the auto check in/out system, specious common area, friendly staff. House keeping won’t tidy your room everyday, unless you request. Which is also fine, coz I don’t really need it everyday. :)

Location is fantastic. It's very near to the train station once you familiar with the travel. The hotel is very close to the famous boutiques like LV, Chanel and Hermes. Just that the facilities are very limited due to this is a very small hotel. Front desk is very helpful for late check in and early check out.

This hotel is well located to explore Oslo. The breakfast buffet is large, varied and excellent. The staff are friendly, but could be better informed to help guests with their questions. Rooms are relatively spacious with a. funky modern decor but aren’t cleaned unless guests request it. The included dinner can be hit or miss in terms of quality, quantity and service. Overall, a good, not a great, choice.

This was the cheapest accommodation that I could find in Oslo for a dorm. I was very pleased that they had a female only dorm which was not advertised on their website. The dorm was fine but the bunk bed was a little bit flimsy and it was difficult to get up and down the ladder as the rungs were so thin. There is no longer an extra charge for bedding. The lockers were on the ground floor near reception and you needed your own padlock. The kitchen was like a sauna/greenhouse as windows were not opened but very spacious with useful cooking facilities (that you did not need to hire). The toilet and shower facilities were also good. The rooftop terrace was fantastic. The cleaners do a great job of keeping the place spotless. The downside is that the hostel is 1.5 miles from the Central station, however there is a lot to see and do in or near Grunerlokka such as the bars, nightclubs, Botanic Garden, Nedre Foss and the Labour Museum. Lockers were free at Deichmann library, National Museum and Munch Museum in the centre if you needed to store your luggage before or after check in/out.
