Scandic Vulkan
Maridalsveien 13A, Grunerlokka, 0178 Oslo, Norway – Great location - show map
Location is great and the breakfast was quite good in quality and quantity.
Mexicobreakfast was very nice! Great selection and nice place to sit.
DenmarkFriendly staff; excellent breakfast selection; great location next to Food Hall as well as bus lines; easy walk to heart of Grunerlokka
United States of AmericaThe hotel had everything I needed, and I slept well both nights I was there. Breakfast was really good---highly recommend! The area close to the hotel is really fun, with great coffee and good food in a walking distance. Getting to city center was straightforward too.
United States of AmericaThe hotel is located right across from Mathallen food hall. Breakfast was delicious and the room was clean and quiet. During our time in Oslo, we stayed another night in the Sentrum neighborhood. We much preferred the Vulkan neighborhood. While everything is a bit spaced out, there were great coffee shops and restaurants. It was also nice to walk along the river.
United States of AmericaIt has the most fabulous breakfast buffet I’ve ever had. Hotel beds are usually very uncomfortable for me, but their beds were amazing. It was close to bus lines and had free bike rentals, so getting around was so simple. They are located right on a lovely food court and shopping area and are only a mile walk or short bus ride from downtown and a lot of other attractions. I came to Oslo because my mom broke her hip while she was vacationing here and had to have a hip replacement and I needed to get her home. The staff were so accommodating and helped me with everything I needed yo make her comfortable when she was released from the hospital. They even changed me to a handicap room the day she was coming so she would have all the facilities she needed.
United States of AmericaEverything, easy access by public transport The location was perfect, supermarket, tram stations, bus stations, local market near. The breakfast was amazing and tasteful.
ColombiaThis is a very nice hotel with the best breakfast close to nature but also the center.
AustriaThe WiFi didnt work at all during my stay. The breakfast was nice and the room was comfy enough. Its all right for a short stay although it is pricey.
CroatiaWhen we got to the room after check in we were really unhappy, the room was suffocating, with the smell of cigarettes and very different from the room we booked and the pictures. We approached the reception and provided her that we were really unhappy and the girl changed our room and really worried and helped. Thank you very much for the service, listening and quality. Enjoyed very much.
