Breakfast was excellent

Stayed in May 2024

the only real issue is about soundproofing. In the early morning you can clearly hear the doors slamming and this woke me up many times. for a 4* hotel and the price payed, this is unaccetable (at least they should provide earplugs). The bathroom also is not that of a 4* hotel. Anyway it is functional, as the whole room, but bathroom is tiny and more typical of an old fashioned 3* hotel. Of course bidet is missing, but I would expect more space where to put things. Again, for the price paid it is not enough and not coherent with hotel category. If it costed less and was a 3*hotel (as it was before refurbishing), then it would be perfect. Price quality ratio is not good, particularly on booking.com, but Oslo is expensive and I guess this area more than others (even the city centre is even more costly). Finally, as the water is drinkabkle from the tap, they do not even offer a bottle of water for night in the fridge (which I find absurd) so that they force you to buy it at the reception at a crazy high price! This is not acceptable again for a 4* hotel in my opinion, but maybe it is a typical habit in Norway, but everywhere at least a welcome water bottle is given, in Italy and Greece even in 2* hotels! Also, the taste of the tap water was not good at all... I would not stay again here if visiting Oslo for holidays, at leat at the high price which I payed (before seeing my room).

the hotel is quite newly refurbished, rooms are big and modern, the king size bed was super comfy. Breakfast is compelte and good quality weven not excellent as many thinbgs seem to bve industrial. Even the fish was not bad nor excellent, anyway it offers a good sweet products selection whic is not easy to find in Northern Europe (at least in Ireland and UK). the hotel is located in avery quiet are and the position is excellent both for offices in Skoyen but also for beaches and museums in the wonderful Bygdøy peninsula. The room was super modern and had a terrace and dark curtains which filtered sunlight properly. The cleaning standards were very high, towels were always fresh and changed every day even without reqyest, which is good in my opinion. Of course one can choose to keep the, but without the sign on the door they change them (proper policy). Finally the staff is really super, all the girls are very kind and helpful to every request, from the digital invoice to printing my boarding pass. The cleaning service is super and the lady was really polite and cleaned even the floor in each room, which is not common. Last but not least, even if it was a vacation day in Norway at the reception you can always find fresh water bottles and sandwiches which are really good, at least compared to what I spent to eat in an Asian restaurant nearby. I never tried the restaurant and bar (Skabos Hage) but I guess they offer good scandinavian food at fair prices compared to rubbish Asian food at very high prices. I suggest Scandic Syolist for who goes to Skoyen for business and work but not to tourists. I guess there are better options at lower prices, maybe a bit far away from the main attractions but you can exploit public transportations which are super efficient and save money which you will need to eat and drink and visit the city. If you are refunded on work travel this is a good option where to stay.

It was difficult to find the entrance to the hotel as the address on Booking.com does not give the correct street number.

We were traveling w children btw 4-8y and had a family room. The darkning curtains wasn’t long enough to keep out the sunlight. The kids’ bunkbeds didn’t have polstring at the sides and the lowest bed did not have any side framing to protect a child from falling to the ground. Also parents double bed consisted of two separate beds placed side by side, making it difficult to co-sleep w children coming over during nights. It should have had a double topmadras in order to meet family needs when travelling w smaller children.

Very nice location close to public transportation, airport transport + everything you need, shopping, dining, beaches at Bygdøy and in walking distance to the Frogner area.

The restaurant and bar was closed on Saturdays and Sundays which I found super odd, and we were a bit gutted to find the high chair we’d used at breakfast the day before not cleaned when we came back the following morning (we’d quickly wiped it ourselves to not leave it too messy but it had just been put away by the looks of it).

Nice room, lovely reception staff, accommodating of small child though it didn’t seem like a typical family hotel. Great breakfast.

Very nice hotel, but ridiculously expensive (4000 NOK for one night). The brekfast was alright, better than on some other Scandic hotels.

Allocated room was comfort for 2 persons not for 4 persons. We booked for 2 adults and 2 kids. But it was not comfort for 4.

Brekfast is superb. Cleaning also very good. Faced little uncomfortable about space for 4 members. They must arrange a room which can be comfort for 4 persons. We have already mentioned all about our members details.

The breakfast was below average, limited choices and the same every day. The breakfast was only open until 9:30 which is too early. Most 4 or 5 star have breakfast open until 10:30 or 11:00. For people that like to start their day late, they will probably miss breakfast. Food at the main restaurant, Skabos Hage was also not very good. The room itself is a 3* room, not a 4* hotel room. The bathrooms are small, there is only a very small stand-in shower and only one sink. The lighting in the room is not the best and the room is dark. The kingsize bed is actually two twin beds put next to one another. The beds themselves are not very comfortable. The heating system in the room is pretty old and hard to use. There is no AC, so the rooms might get hot during the summer. There is also no proper closet for your clothes. Housekeeping is only working until 5 PM. If you are working from your room during the day, there is no time for housekeeping to actually clean your room. There are also no amenities provided other than shower and hair gel.

The stay was OK overall, the staff at the reception were polite and helpful. Check-in was smooth, and the room was ready when we arrived, and we could do early check-in. The location is very good, close to public transportation, and close to some of the most beautiful places to walk in Oslo. Wireless internet was also very good, perfect for working.
