The hotel was not air conditioned and was oppressively hot. The hallways smaller stale and smelled like a barn: The hotel lacked proper ventilation. The windows in the room were not operable. We were asked if we wanted our room cleaned at check in and we said we wanted it cleaned daily. They didn’t clean the room even once. The room was extremely small and felt claustrophobic . However the staff was friendly and the breakfast was really good. The location was extremely convenient.

Ingen aircondition på værelset. Så under en hedebølge - som der var på vores tur - er værelset næsten ulideligt. Åbne vinduer i en storby giver ikke meget søvn. Der er meget støj fra gaden. Men det er som forventet. Ellers var alt perfekt. Værelset rent. God morgenmad. Tæt på transport. Meget serviceminded personale.

The best part of the hotel was its location. It is located next to the train station permitting easy transportation almost anywhere. The staff was polite and helpful. The biggest downside of this hotel is potentially very long and confusing walks to your room. We wondered down partially lit hallways with multiple turns trying to find our room. Once we got there the room was clean and functional. The included breakfast had a wide variety of tasty options. The area around the hotel was busy, but seemed safe. There was not excessive noise from the street. Near the hotel there was an abundance of shopping and eating options.

We were beyond pleased with our stay at Scandic Oslo City! It had a most convenient location since we were traveling in and out of the city by train, and the staff and service were excellent - very accommodating and helpful. Our room exceeded our expectations and was extremely spacious and clean. We easily walked to the shopping street and town center, as well as several places to go for dinner. Breakfast was included and fantastic, which was a great help as we were traveling with our kids. Highly recommend!!

As a couple with an 18 month old toddler we had a fantastic stay at the Scandic Oslo City. It’s in such a great location, convenient for the train station (easy train from the airport) , walking to points of interest and public transport - the tram is so easy! We requested a cot when booking and it was ready in our room upon arrival. Our room was much bigger than expected and this made our 3 day stay very comfortable. The fridge was ideal for storing milk and fruit for our little one and having the ability to screencast on the TV was also great. The breakfast was excellent with lots of options. We would definitely stay again when visiting Oslo.

Mye bråk fra gaten da vinduene er svært dårlig isolert, spesielt med musikk som ble avspilt av fra restaurant utenfor helt til midnatt. Rommet er knøttlite, madrassen gir vondt i hoften og putefyllet er ganske løst. Temperaturen er satt på 23 grader som man ikke får gjort noe med, så rommet er svært varmt. Booker du her bør du ha med øreplugger og sove med kun dynetrekk. Renslig rom og grei frokost.

Very good stay here. Hotel was in ideal location for station, buses, trams and metro. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Our first night was marred by loud music on the street until 2am. When we asked the next morning if it was possible to have another room, we had a key to another room away from the street within 10 minutes of asking, all done efficiently and with no fuss at all. Thanks to Lars for being so helpful. Our new room was also much bigger and really comfortable. Good breakfast as well.

Excellent place to stay for our few days in Oslo. Just steps from the train station and a main stop for trams and busses. The staff were friendly & helpful, the place was clean and the breakfast was a great way to start the day. Found the room to be small, but that might just be the case in central Oslo. The room was also warm and the only way to cool it off was to open the window. Given the hotel’s central location, it was loud on a Saturday night, with the window open. When closed, no real noise problems. Would definitely stay here again.

Staff were friendly amd helpful. The room was great, extra spacious and clean. Location was conveniently located across from the train station downtown. That being said, that comes with outside noise and we had two uncomfortable interactions with some unhoused individuals. The last night we were there a non profit had set up outside the hotel with sleeping bags and other items for the unhoused. Next time , I would stay at one of their hotels further outside of downtown town for a quieter experience. Overall the hotel itself and staff were wonderful.
