The hotel had a cozy and warm atmosphere, with friendly service and a convenient location in the heart of Oslo. The dining options were varied and satisfying, but there were some issues with temperature control in the rooms.
The hotel had both positives and negatives. The rooms were large and very clean but unfortunately too hot. The service was a mix of not knowing basic operations like the thermostat and being exceptionally helpful with local recommendations. The location was perfect for exploring the city, very close to the central station. Dining offered exceptional options but was not perfect the first time around. Overall, a good value for money option with a mix of great features and some minor downsides.
The hotel has a typical Scandinavian shower, cozy but slightly small rooms, and a dark ambiance even during the daytime. However, it feels like a luxurious living room setting, which was interesting, especially in the constant daylight of summer.
My stay at the hotel was delightful, with spacious and beautiful rooms featuring a unique 270-degree balcony inside the room. While the room lacked some elements like a safe, it provided a cozy space with a bed, bedside tables, and a fold-down desk chair.
