What guests think

Reviews of Citybox Oslo describe a centrally located, budget-friendly, self-service hotel with clean, compact rooms, comfortable beds, and handy common areas like a guest kitchen and laundry, alongside easy kiosk check-in and convenient access to Oslo S and trams.

Many note minimal in-room amenities (often no TV, cups, fridge or kettle) and very small rooms, with temperature control a common pain point due to limited ventilation or lack of AC. Noise from trams and hallways disturbs some stays, and housekeeping and maintenance quality varies, with occasional dirty floors, shower drainage problems, or broken dispensers. The contactless model suits many, yet several mention missing check-in codes, mixed staff responsiveness, and an unmonitored luggage room (one theft reported). Expect a simple crash pad best for short, value-focused stays.

They upgraded me to a double room for free! Also the whole checkin process such as having a separate luggage room and everything is a very smooth, digitized and modern experience. There are also really nice common areas to watch TV, play games, and nice resturaunts with discounts.

Just a terrible stay. My luggage was stolen from the room where everyone placed their bags, which could be accessed with a card, and the reception girls didn't want to know anything, even though supposedly there were cameras. They didn't even want to check the recordings and just told me to go file a police report. It's completely unacceptable. Even if travelers are responsible for their luggage, the hotel cannot absolve itself of responsibility, and a simple sign in the room has no legal value. They do not have the right to tell people that there is no insurance for this. They really didn’t care at all that my luggage was stolen. One piece of advice: never leave your luggage there because you will have absolutely no means of recourse. As a result, I had to buy all my things again. To avoid!

Quick and efficient contactless check-in process. Great facilities downstairs in the communal areas, from games to meeting rooms to vending machines, microwaves and tea and coffee. Room was sufficient albeit a little basic (no TV, ironing facilities or coat hangers) but nothing significant enough to spoil the experience. Excellent location within walking distance of Oslo S rail station, the Opera House and many other locations in Oslo City.

This hotel is in a great location near central train station and cruise ship docking. It is very basic with machine check-in and check out. Therefore you will not have assistance for any questions however that is also reflected in the price. Luggage storage is available but not really safe as it is not monitored.

Rommet var praktisk og minimalistisk. God plass og god seng. Det var imidlertid ikke rengjort skikkelig og gulvet var møkkete.

Dette er ett selvbetjent hotell der man ikke har noen interaksjon med mennesker. Man sjekker inn og ut selv. Vi velger ofte dette hotellet når vi har mye som skal skje nå vi er i Oslo og tilbringer bare tid på hotellet for å dusje og sove. Denne gangen var dessverre renholdet av hotellrommet dårlig, både gulv og bad og dermed får hotellet dårligere rating enn før.

It was wonderfully close to the train station. The room was clean and check in was a breeze. Staff are kind and helpful. Extremely small room. I’m 5.0” and normal Build, anyone over that would have difficulty moving around the room, the location was very noisy, we were unable to rest as we heard cars, motorcycles, people talking and waking outside all night until the morning. The room was very humid, hot, with no circulation, we tried to keep the window open but couldn’t because the noise was too much. There wants any tissues and No TV which isn’t a problem if you enjoy your company or don’t watch tv. For us it was wasn’t the deal breaker, it’s all the other things that would not put this place back on our list again.

Budget hotel but not as I would have expected. Great self service check in until something goes wrong and you have to wait….no one came even though machine said they would! Fortunately someone coming out let us in so we could find the support we needed hiding behind an unmanned reception! Room was a decent size but had a sloping roof so you couldn’t easily get out of bed without having to bend to avoid it…and we are not tall! The under floor heating was lovely but only in the bathroom the bedroom floor was like hard plastic matting not comfortable at all and hare to think what it would be like in the winter! No way to manage temperature of room. No shampoo and conditioner as advised. Hairdryer wouldn’t hook on so was on floor constantly which was a hazard really given shower leaked all the time. Not much space for hanging clothes which was ok for us given only staying for 2 nights but any longer you would have to live out of case. No drawers to put anything so we had to have things in case anyway. Decor etc lovely and great kitchen area but I would have preferred some tea and coffee in room without having to pay for it though a crap machine that you had to buy milk for separately and place it in a shared fridge…very odd. We were in room 655 but whatever room I was in don’t think review would be much different! Would not recommend to anyone even though in a fantastic area and easy to get to everywhere walking
