Lock in a great price for Hotel Continental – rated 9.1 by recent guests!

to get started.

They have an amazing brunch (ours was included in our price). All rooms are newly renovated. If you like a classic hotel - a la Ritz Carlton - then this hotel is for you. We kind of regret not staying at The Thief as this is located on the Aker Brygge, all the buildings there are new and super modern Scandinavian design. The Aker Brygge is a short walk from Hotel Continental.

I like the location of the hotel it’s in my opinion is a good location.

Mohammed, Qatar

Extremely professional staff from checking in to checking out! The breakfast was exquisite. I wish i could take the mattress with me! Thank you again!!

Location was excellent, hotel staff very helpful, room are good sizes, bathroom and aminities are good.

Al, Oman

The breakfast was amazing for us Americans. The staff was very helpful in giving us assistance on traveling in the Oslo area and the room was very comfortable and clean!

Susan, United States of America

A Wow! hotel in Oslo-close to fjord waterfront with many good restaurants, ferries, shopping, museums, theater, etc. Very helpful staff stored some of our luggage during our side trip to Bergen. Our suite was large/clean and overlooked the castle/palace. The downstairs Theatercafeen is a must-visit: excellent menu and service in Art Noveau setting (reminded us of Prague). We will stay here in our next trip to Oslo!

ALL IF THE ABOVE !! WOULD STAY THERE AGAIN HANDS DOWN!!!

Jaime, Sweden

Love the location. And my childhood memories from this opulent hotel makes it so precious for me to stay here. And the smoothest ride, literally, from the Airport train but the hotel needs to sort out its central heating system. It has left me with dry sinuses and a headache ever since I started staying here TWENTY YEARS AGO! Seriously! Even with the renovation, they have the same problem; the fact that guests can't control their own temperature is a real problem. Not sure I will risk it next time I am in Oslo! Although their rival, The Thief, turned out to be an over-hyped, complacent alternative.

The hotel only had a very small fitness centre, perhaps they could do a deal with a nearby gym.
The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom excellent with a large bath and shower. Staff where attentive and polite and the location a short walk from the waterside (lots of restaurants) as well as next door to the metro and tram stop.

The ground level is a very active restaurant and coffee area, both are excellent.....but it turns into an awesome nightlife scene but that comes with some late night noise (not extreme but you can hear it)
