Oslo hotels near Akershus festning

Pros: Rich breackfast Friendly staff Central

Cons: Can not set the heating, Small room, don't have even wardrobe.

Pros: Hotel was neat and tidy... Staff were friendly Great stay thank you guys

Pros: Good location

Cons: Not a good pressure in shower. Ok breakfast but not too much to choose from. No control to the tv in my room so had to go to the tv to find a button behind it. Only stayed from 9:45 pm to 7am so didn’t bother to inform but doing now

Pros: We liked this place. Really good location, perfect price. Comfortable bad :) a good matpakke for breakfast :)

Pros: Perfect location in the heart of Oslo - walking distance to all most important places in the city center. Very good breakfast with large selection of products. Friendly and helpful staff.

Cons: Walls in the rooms are quite thin so we could hear TV planing in the other room. Apart from that everything was ok!

Pros: Breakfast is great we have everythng we need, enough to satisfy us in the morning they have differently variety of cheese and ham and fruits its not super buffet kind but were happy about it. Location is fantastic very close to tram ovre station and its 3 stops goin to terminal ...there coffee shops nearby and some restaurants. Room was ok its clean and size of toilet is very good .

Cons: The hotel is Fantastic no bad comments about it they just need to add little stuff in the room which probably some will agree on like a hair dryer and a coffee pot.

Pros: central location, good breakfast

Cons: old furniture, small room

Pros: Lovely experience overall, in a thoughtfully designed and sparkling clean room. Major plus is the fantastic sauna with harbor view due to its glass walls. There's also a nice but very narrow pool (really best for one lap swimmer at a time).

Cons: Here's the elevator issue: If user forgets to swipe card first, response SHOULD be an error message such as Please swipe card. Instead, response is that system sends user to an elevator, elevator opens, then nothing happens! Needs a fix ASAP.

Pros: great location and facilities

Cons: they forgot to clean our room

Pros: Great location right next to the rail station. Very nice hotel and room. Excellent breakfast.

Cons: No power plugs near the bed. Bed only had bedding for 1 person, even through we specified 2 at reservation and check-in.

Pros: It was clean

Cons: The hotel was very basic. We had stayed in a Thon hotel for two nights prior and this was much nicer. Breakfast had more choice and tv had more channels. The swimming pool is on a different floor to changing rooms so had to walk in a towel down some stairs. Outside lift was not working which my daughter wanted to use. Then found out lift was working but not for hotel guests.

Pros: Close proximity to train station and airport Right in the center city

Cons: very busy lobby and breakfast area

Pros: Good food Location Great view Fast service...minus the bar.

Cons: Bathrooms a bit dated. Wifi was spotty. Business center computers so old they weren't comparable with any up-to-date programs, so I was not able to conduct business as I wished.

Pros: Outside Main station in Oslo. Beautiful large airy rooms. Staff lovely, great variety at breakfast. Good value for money.

Cons: All good.

Pros: Great design and amenities, helpful staff (especially front desk and restaurant), amazing food and taste of Norway in restaurant. Good leisure facilities. Surprise upgrade to a business room for being a return traveller. Fantastic location.

Cons: Housekeeping in the room. Found a little brown "surprise" in the toilet when first arrived and spotted some black residue coming off of the plug in the bath

Pros: Arrived late, got bags and extra bed delivered. Breakfast room service - awesome meal! Great location

Cons: Strange drunk or druggie people outside hotel between hotel and train station. More than other EU capitols, all begging for money.

Pros: Hotel itself and our room was very nice! Very clean and good views from 28th floor. Also elevators were super fast so you didn't have to wait long to get up to your room. Very near to the centre. Excellent breakfast!!

Cons: We had little bit more exprectations for the sauna and pool area. Kind a wanted to enjoy it together with my boyfriend, but saunas were separately and no jacuzzy, only pool. A lot of kids were playing there, so perfect for kids to have fun. Otherwise everything else was nice :)

Pros: When purchasing, it felt like a nice hotel we were splurging for. When we got there, we realized it was anything but.

Cons: The area the hotel is located seemed like the shadiest part of town. I know this because I walked 15 miles the best day around the city and the only place that felt sketchy to me was outside and around the radisson plaza.

Pros: the receptionist was truly outstanding at her job, the bed was the most comfortable i have ever experienced EVER. the views from the rooftop bar is breath taking and its location is perfect for exploring the city.

Cons: i couldn't stay longer is the only issue i had.

Pros: Really lovely and helpful staff! Amazing breakfast too.

Cons: Was rushed out of the breakfast hall before it was officially closed. Also no mugs in the rooms, although there's a kettle.

Pros: Stig the Receptionist at front desk who tried to rectify the problems with our rooms

Cons: My wife and I arrived on the 17th August 2015, and on attempting to check-in we were told the "computer system" was not working and therefore we we not able to check in. We were told to either wait (they could not provide an estimate on how long it would take). After a 15-min wait we were checked in "manually". As an American Carlson member, I presented my Club Carlson Gold card, but it wasn't accepted because my trip was booked through Kayak! Nevertheless after a short delay we were in our room. Immediately we noticed that the carpet in the room was dirty, and there were 2-single beds (as opposed to a double as we booked) Credit to the front desk staff who promptly reassigned us to a "newly refurbished" room. The room was a marked improvement over the last, and we happily settled in; unpacking our suitcases and preparing for an afternoon of sightseeing. On return in the evening, we prepared for the night and around 20:00 we tried to lock the door. The door lock did not work. A call to the front desk and a couple of minutes later someone from maintenance was at our door. I explained that the door wouldn't lock from the inside and he insisted that the lock was working. I was a bit taken back by his curt response, but nevertheless invited him to try. What followed next had me flabbergasted! The maintenance employee closed the door, and using his body weight proceeded to to yank on the door handle until he could engage the lock. Curtly he replied, "There it is locked". I attempted to unlock door by turning the lock itself and when I couldn't he demonstrated how to unlock the door. Standing on his toes and again using all his body weight he pressed down on the door handle until the lock disengaged. Again the curt response, "There it is unlocked". I couldn't believe it! Visibility annoyed at this point, when I pointed out that locking the door in such a manner would be a fire hazard (not to mention my wife will never be able to unlock the door if I locked it), he suggested that I actually didn't need to lock the door as no one from the outside could get in without a key. In response I stated that any member of staff could enter if the door was unlocked, to which he acknowledged was true and said I could either call the front desk to arrange a new room, lock the door as he demonstrated, or leave the door unlocked; but there was nothing he could do to fix the lock. Another call to the front desk and we were offered a room on the 20th floor. So after repacking we moved to our 3-room for the day. From then on the only issues we faced were with our room keys. Every time we left our room, the room key would not let us back in. So we had to make our way to the front desk where they would make a new key. Every time without fail!

Pros: Comfy, great breakfast, sofisticated, well located and kind staff

Cons: Too much dust inside the room

Pros: Breakfast buffet was nice, good location

Cons: Didn't really have air conditioning -- our room was really hot which was disruptive

Pros: King-sized bed, which was hard to find in Oslo, or Europe for that matter. Comfortable, quiet room. Helpful staff. Great breakfast.

Cons: Carpet next to bed needed cleaning, and our daughters' shower did not drain. reported both.

Pros: The staff was excellent - they helped me recover my kindle when I accidentally left it on the airport shuttle. They also helped me with directions and provided assistance in finding my way around Oslo. The breakfast buffet was very good as well.

Cons: Room temperature was a bit warm for my taste - the ac was apparently not on yet (early spring), so I could not make the room cooler.

Pros: The hotel is located in walking distance to the metro station. Easy to get Express Bus to Airport.

Pros: Beautiful.

Cons: No more breakfast. ..because of v

Pros: We don't know what we would have liked because our reservation was cancelled on the morning of our flight to Oslo because of a hotel workers strike.

Cons: Obviously, we didn't like the need to find another hotel at the very last minute.

Pros: Clean and close to senter

Cons: Everything was great

Pros: Central location great for access to central station/fly to get to airport, breakfast started at 6.30 am but stopped at 9.30 am ( but early for tourists )

Cons: view of wall from window of adjoining building

Cons: No wardrobe in the room, not any shelves either to put one's clothes on, no fridge, no comfortable table or chairs, and that at a quitr high price. I don't thunk I will choose the Comfort chain again.

Pros: Location

Cons: Room was to small for two persons

Pros: Really good breakfast. Lots of choice in relaxing dining room. Perfect location. Very central.

Cons: Coffee unavailable in rooms. No storage space in rooms

Pros: The location close to the train station, spacious room and above all the friendliness of the guy at the reception in the evenings of the 13th and 14th of March, a big thank you to him.

Cons: The room was cold even with the heater on. We had to request another heater which helped. The buffet breakfast was not available because of the Coronavirus which we totally understand. However the packed breakfast offered was light, we had no choice and the same package for 2 days in a row. We booked the place specifically for the large breakfast options so we asked if we could have another pack since we were still hungry but no, "the chef said no, 1 pack per person". No hot chocolate available either. So the price/quality ratio was not good.

Pros: The breakfast was amazing!! The underfloor heating was an extra plus and the staff were super friendly and helpful. Thank you.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: There was zero communication about the shutting down of Norway and that any one entering the country would be quarantined. The fact that even though the country shut its borders it was not allowed to get any form of refund

Pros: very good breakfast buffet, great location easy walk from train station

Cons: we paid extra to get into our room when we arrived at noon. since the room was ready I don't see why there was a fee to get in early
