Unbeatable location on Karl Johans gate right next to Parliament
Historic grandeur that feels like the 'living room' of Oslo
Rooftop bar 'Eight' offers some of the best city views in town
Hızlı Özet: A legendary dame that rests on her laurels—expect 5-star history but occasionally 3-star service and surprising extra fees.
@dreamtravelvoyages tarafından değerlendirildi: I stayed here during the holidays and it was pure magic. Waking up to the view of the Christmas market and Ferris wheel right outside my window was worth every penny. It's the ultimate winter bucket list stay.

The hype
Travelers adore the location and the historic lobby vibe, but many feel the rooms are small and the service can be aloof.

You will likely be charged for things you expect to be free at this price point, like the pool and breakfast.
You are a history buff who wants to walk in Ibsen's footsteps
You need to be in the absolute center of Oslo for business or sightseeing
You appreciate a bustling, high-energy lobby scene
Temizlik & Bakım
8.5
Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though recent reviews mention missed dustbins and leftover items.
Bathroom hygiene: Bathrooms are usually spotless, but grout in older rooms can show age.
Maintenance: Historic charm means occasional peeling paint or creaky floorboards.
Linens & towels: High quality, crisp white linens; towels are fluffy but check for wear.
Odors & scents: Lobby smells expensive; some smoking rooms (historically) may have faint lingering scents.
