We booked via third party which price wise was great but a little bit more confusing. Leading up to the trip we were asked for booking information we were never given. After a couple emails back and forth I think we solved the problem. Once we arrived to the terminal it was easy to check in with the gate agent and then get onto the boat. Our bags were not search before getting on board and we were able to get on the boat a little early. Once on the boat there was a couple of dining options. We ate at the Italian restaurant first and little to no complains. For dinner we did the steak house and honestly it was a let down. Fairly expensive and mediocre food, I would not recommend it. I think next time we would do the buffet or the Italian restaurant again. The room was small, and slightly different than the photos but it did the job. For a quick trip we couldn't ask for much more. I think I enjoyed breakfast the most- highly recommend! If you are going to book you might as well book a nice room because it includes the breakfast. We paid about $160 for two people in a large room which felt like a good deal. There are a ton of cheaper options on the boat if you are looking for a cheaper option.

The station is clean, well signposted and easy to navigate, even for first time visitors. Platforms are spacious and trains run frequently throughout the day. I particularly appreciated the straightforward connection to Oslo city centre, which makes travelling much easier. The entire area feels safe, efficient and well maintained. The ticket price from the city to the airport for two adults and one child was 320 NOK.

Only thing to note is that the trains are on the outside of the main central station on the back side.

Check-in was smooth, and the staff were friendly and efficient. The room was clean, comfortable, and stylish, though on the smaller side. A/C was weak, and rooms aren't refreshed or restocked unless requested. One notable element was the breakfast. It is one of the most comprehensive I've seen at a hotel. From fresh pastries and hot dishes to Norwegian specialties and vegan options, it had everything, even individual packets of Omega-3's. Overall, a well-located, stylish and modern hotel with standout breakfast. I'd definitely stay again.

It's located in an extremely busy area, but there are several restaurants within walking distance. The feel I got was it's older and has been renovated. The front entrance is a bit confusing and hidden. Apparently there are two entrances to the hotel. I only figured that out when the Uber driver picked me up. The hotel seemed dark and unwelcoming. Also, there's some construction going on so I would hear noises late at night at least until midnight. The hotel rooms are not equivalent for the same price you pay. I found that out through my colleagues because they had bigger rooms. I'm petite and the room I had was barely enough space for me. A group of my colleagues and I had the smaller rooms while our other group had much bigger rooms. The only thing I liked about the hotel was the cozy comforter, but the pillows were terrible. I couldn't even stack the two pillows up to make them firmer.

We stayed at the hotel- which was lovely. Tacking the train from the airport to the city center will leave you with a 14 minute walk to the hotel. With luggage this wasn't ideal, we'll Uber moving forward. Once inside it was nice but simple- honestly it's what we expected in Oslo outside of the 4/5 star hotels we have booked for later in the trip. We had a large room which fit two perfectly, and the beds were super comfortable. Free WiFi which is expected in my opinion, and a breakfast Buffett in the morning. I found staff to be friendly and we actually had no issues during our one night stay. I'm not sure if I would stay here for more than two nights based on needing a little more from a hotel room but it's a solid choice. Oslo is expensive so be prepared to spend money, even on a limited frill hotel for a night,

Radisson Blu Hotel, Oslo (Holberg) - Great Location and Warm Service…read more After a long transatlantic flight, the welcome at the hotel was exactly what we needed--calm, friendly, and refreshing. The staff were excellent and kindly accommodated an early check-in, which made a big difference after a tiring journey. The hotel itself could benefit from a light refurbishment in parts, but this is more than balanced out by its many strengths. The location is fantastic, and the top-floor bar offers great views and a relaxing atmosphere. Access to the Lagoon pool and gym is another strong plus. Breakfast was a highlight. The staff were professional and attentive, and the selection of Norwegian food had that distinct, fresh quality that simply feels good--both in taste and overall experience. With views stretching toward the Royal Palace and even glimpses of the fjord, the stay felt special and memorable. Overall, a very enjoyable stay with excellent service and amenities. I bit pricey but I would definitely return.

Public transportation options are also quite accessible for things that are a little farther afield. Getting there from the airport was rather easy. The train line from the airport ran directly to the Nationaltheatret station. From there, it was a reasonably easy 8-minute walk. The hotel itself was not necessarily what I would call elegant, but it was quite nice nonetheless. The lobby was spacious, warm and welcoming with an interesting fire place structure in the middle. There was a convenience store entrance off the Lobby for good measure. The service at the front desk was polite and efficient. Our check-in and check-out experiences were trouble-free and the time or two that we had questions involved very pleasant interactions with prompt answers. Our room was on the 9th floor affording a nice urban view. I was a little afraid of the size when I booked. Our only experiences to date with Scandinavian hotels in Sweden and Denmark were cramped rooms for very high prices. But we were pleasantly relieved with the discovery that our room was more comparable to American-sized rooms than Northern European rooms. We had plenty of space to feel relaxed. The decor was pleasant and the room was in good shape. The Wi-fi signal was strong and did not fail us at any point during our 5-night stay. The bathroom was clean with all fixtures working as expected. The room was equipped with a refrigerator which allowed us to keep leftovers, minimizing our food costs. The coffee provided was instant, but with the fast water heater that was OK. The hallways were neat and well-kept. We did not take advantage of the pool, but we noticed that other patrons clearly enjoyed that amenity. One of the notable things was the restaurant. I highly recommend booking a room rate that includes breakfast. The restaurant itself had quite a large seating capacity, so even at its busiest we could still find seating. The buffet was fabulous, rivaling many that I've seen in Asia. The hot selections were plentiful with eggs, potatoes, meats, pancakes and more. The bread selection was quite good and the yogurts, fruit, cheeses and greens were all you would want. The local specialty brown cheese was worth trying and became a favorite. The coffee was good as well. The cost was well worth what we received. It helped immensely that we visited in February allowing for us to take advantage of off-season pricing. But this still worked well for us because the weather was not overly cold and most attractions were still open. Our pre-paid rate with breakfast was around $656 including taxes for five nights. At about $131 per night, you really can't beat the value. The fact that we could walk or easily ride everywhere we needed to go made this hotel the perfect choice as an anchor point for our visit to the wonderful city of Oslo.

Outside of the door to our room someone has shattered a glass and the shards could be seen in the carpet. We asked the front desk everyday to have it vacuumed up but did NOT happen during our stay. Two major lights in our room did not work, I assumed that the bulbs were burned out. Everyday we asked that they be looked at and fixed but that never happened either. On our arrival to Oslo, one of our airline bags did not arrive. The airline was gong to deliver it the next morning. I went to the front desk and asked them to please notify me as soon as the bag was delivered and they said that they would. After waiting for hours the next day, I got a message from the company delivering the bag that said that they had delivered it over an hour earlier. I went to the front desk and they said, "let go look". They opened the bag room door and there was my bag that had been delivered earlier. No notification from the hotel as had been asked for. This was a HORRIBLE hotel and a horrible stay. Anyone thinking of staying there should look elsewhere.
