Hotel berhampiran Siggerud Pumptrack, Ski

I have stayed at this hotel many times as it is located close to my family when I visit Norway. Another important issue for me has been the free parking outside, but now this has come to an end.. A private parking company has bought the area outside, and there are just a few small signs that indicate so.. This has been the ”carrot” for me, but this time, and when seeing all the cars that had received a parkingfine - it:s enough for me. I will not stay there anymore with this kind of unfriendly welcome harassment! A hotel should take care of their guest - not leave them with stupid and high parking fines..The location of the hotel is outside the border of Oslo, and no one benefits of parking there.. Besides from this - the breakfast is good, but the rooms are very small. You will have a problem to fit an average sized suitcase in the room. The personel working there are very nice though :-) and there is also a well fitted gym in the basement.

Very well located in less than 10mn walking distance from the airport train central station. Staff were concerned about my wife’s security when I was 2 days busy in my business’s meetings.

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.

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.

We travelled to Son Spa from the UK as a couple, not really knowing what to expect. We discovered Son Spa through Choice Rewards (previously Radisson US) so booked 2 nights in the one-bedroom balcony suite using points. Really easy drive from Oslo airport (OSL), lots of car hire options (and large proportion are electric cars - there are charging points everywhere). As it was an early flight, we arrived before check-in time, but was welcomed warmly by the reception staff. As the room was already available they let us check-in straight away. Lovely room with separate living room, and outdoor balcony looking out past the marina. Easy walk to Son, a coastal town 10-15 minutes away, where there is a couple of restaurants, a supermarket and an amazing bakery (tucked underneath a building, but you will smell it!) Breakfast is included, large buffet selection, that you can enjoy indoors or outdoors. The spa is fantastic, with indoor and outdoor pools But our favourite bit of Son Spa is the Aufguss ritual (sauna experience on the floating sauna rafts) with wide glass windows looking out across the water. A massive thank you to Thorun and Lars who were so lovely, welcoming and inclusive. The smells they make by mixing different oils with ice before putting them into the sauna are so refreshing. You are ready to jump into the cold water outside afterwards! We were fortunate to be able to see the Northern Lights one evening from the pier as well as Jeløya. We have recommended Son Spa to all our friends and family, and would love to come back!
