The room was a bit larger than European standards, which is great since we had two large suitcases. The hotel is also in a very good location; all the major train, bus and tram stations are within walking distance. If you're staying in Oslo as a tourist I highly recommend the Oslo pass since it covers transportation within zones 1 & 2 as well as the entrance fees to most major museums.

Before we headed far north, we stayed a few nights at The Thief in Oslo. Our experience here was so amazing it almost beat out the northern lights! the property is stylish and artsy, our room was GORGEOUS with stunning views, every detail was perfect. The staff was friendly and attentive, from the bartenders to the dining staff. But Juliane, the hospitality manager, really stands out! She was so kind, warm, and sweet. Not only did she give us a guide to the beautiful city, but she also managed to get us a last-minute reservation at an excellent restaurant nearby that originally had no availability. I've stayed in hotels around the world... Do not miss the Thief, it's one of the best stays ever. Thank you so much to Juliane and the rest of the amazing staff here! I can't wait to come back!

Staff at reception and restaurant are friendly. Food is very expensive in Norway. Since the breakfast is included and is really good, it is a big advantage. There is no traffic is the dead-end lane so there is no noice at all. The sport center is on the 8th and top floor. It is rather small but well equiped. It opens from 7am to 10 pm. Less than 100 m away from the hotel there are two pizza place. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and can only recommend.

Really a 3.5. I…read moreattended a meeting here that took place over a few days where the topic was ironically, luxury adventure travel. The Scandic Homenkollen Park was a decent host with both hits and misses. HITS: The entrance and main lobby to the hotel was beautiful and welcoming. The food served at breakfasts, the included lunches, cocktail party and the farewell dinner were all very very good. The meeting room set up was comfortable and run well. Lots of us commented that the one big culinary surprise was how good the reindeer main dish was at our dinner. I loved the bed in my room with the double separate duvets (I must be in Europe!) - the rest of the room, not so much - see below. Wifi worked well. MISSES: Many of us ended up in very small, dark rooms. Very basic. If there was a room safe, I couldn't find it easily. After I checked in, I had a really hard time finding my room. I asked several housecleaning staff for help, and I was sent down long corridors to no avail. We had lunch one day at the dining area near the main lobby. Service was pretty atrocious and unfriendly. Overall, it served as it was meant to be - a conference hotel.

We chose this hotel because they also have "apartments", which is found in a separate building, and a couple of blocks uphill, than the hotel. Items that were included that I very much appreciated: - WiFi - Luggage Storage - 12 Noon check out (not 11 AM) - Body wash, shampoo, hand soap - fully equipped kitchen and dining - Nespresso machine and pods Not Included: - Breakfast Saga Hotel is in a quiet area near and to the west of the national theater-- near enough to the Metro/light rail/train station to walk, but feels really far when you have luggage. It's doable but feels really far when you're carting a heavy luggage.

The breakfast was one of the better spreads we experienced in Norway during our 9 day trip. Lots of clean fluffy towels, great water pressure, nice hotel robes (I am a basic B!). Windows opened, thankfully, as they were having a heat wave and there is no A/C here so that was not ideal but at least they provided a fan which did help a bit.

The location couldn't have been better and we had only a short walk for our onward exploration in Norway. It was also close to the MUNCH museum as well as the opera house and very central for using the public transport to get around Oslo. The hotel itself is very up to date and our suite had all the expected amenities from power access to big modern bathroom. One complaint and I've seen this elsewhere in Europe, is your inability to control the temperature in your room. If you want it cooler you have to make a request to the front desk. Our room on the 6th floor was fairly large (by European standards) and was comfortable with a nice view to the train station. Our rate included the lavish breakfast buffet with loads of choices as well as a few made to order items like eggs Benedict and something I've never seen in Europe-bagels! A lovely stay except for the warm and stuffy room. Oddly they keep the hallways and other public spaces cooler. Be sure also to check out the fantastic hip cocktail bar-pier 42-in the lobby.

Walking is possible but it would take awhile. The hotel itself is quite clean and the staff are courteous and helpful. In the lobby there is a Nespresso machine and small chocolates for you to enjoy. There is a small restaurant off the main lobby. The room I had was small but sufficient for my needs. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. Included with the price of my hotel room was an excellent buffet breakfast. The room in which the buffet is held has a view of the inside of the soccer stadium which was quite interesting. The food options are very varied, with both hot and cold foods available. There were cheeses, fish (including caviar paste!), meats (both hot and cold cuts), eggs, cereals, yogurts, fruits, bread and pastries, coffee, tea, juices, hot chocolate and freshly squeezed orange juice. Definitely make time for breakfast. Overall a very nice hotel, just a bit far from downtown Oslo, but with the excellent public transport system it's well located both by bus and train (as well as for the shuttle bus that takes you to and from the airport)
