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.

Nice hotel right next to most attractions in the City, if you looking for a budget hotel in the city this is the one, we stayed in the small double room though the room is small but if you just using it to sleep and shower and then spend most of the day out its perfect. Big lobby downstairs for comfort and outdoor area too.

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 location was away from the city center which was not a problem at all because if the available buses of not too far bus stops, the fare to city center was also cheap. The area was quiet and had a scenic view. Breakfast was great although they could’ve considered more food choices. Cleaners were obviously hardworking because they clean, change towels and refill soaps EVERYDAY considering that we paid the lowest priced room. I’ve stayed at 4 Scandic branches around Norway and I could say that this is one of the best I’ve been to.

Bit outside of town but a 30 minute bus trip gets you near the front door. Super friendly staff. Quiet and close to nice trails.

This was a great hotel. The room was good, as was the gym and the pool. The range of breakfast items was one of the most amazing I have ever seen. There was literally everything you could think of (apart from alcohol - well, this is not Spain!!). Some of the hot foods (turkey meatballs and fried eggs) were a little on the cold side on two of our four mornings at the hotel, but, to be fair, they were topped up with fresh items for later customers so I guess we were just at the wrong time. However, I went back to the breakfast bar on a couple of occasions and had more than enough to eat. The hotel restaurant is temporarily closed. I’m not sure whether this meant upstairs or the small brasserie by the bar area, as both were closed. Food was available from the bar, though the menu is quite limited (about 4 items, I recall). We opted for the fish and chips. It has to be one of the best fish and chips we had eaten in a long time. It was so good that we had it on our second night at the hotel. Unfortunately, the bar is not open at any time on Sunday, so that meant nothing to drink nor eat. Fortunately, we were invited to a barbecue on that night so didn’t miss out on food. The hotel is well located and the area felt very safe. The railway station is literally five minutes away, as is the bus terminal. We also walked into the centre of Lillestrøm one day. That only took about 12 minutes and was fairly straightforward. All, in all, a good stay at a great price. Highly recommended.
