Pros: I like how clean the room and comfy bed.
Cons: Didnt like the noise outside, got the room front of the streets and pub. And if maybe if theres a couple staying, it will be great having a room that its quiet and peaceful when waking up. Woke up because of drunk people shouting outside.
8,3 Excellent
Pros: Very friendly staff, excellent breakfast, central location.
Cons: A lot of noise from the bar below my window and loud partygoers all through the night made sleep very difficult. But the reception kindly changed my room the next day and I had a quiet night.

Pros: Great location, close to the Central Train Station and Oslo Opera House. The breakfast buffet was outstanding. Great selection with something for everyone. The heated bathroom floors have spoiled me for life.
Cons: This is absolutely no fault of the hotel, but there is a rock club next door that can be a little loud. Kudos to the hotel, though, they provide free ear plugs!
6,5 Good
Pros: Breakfast was included and good. Was central to many tourist attractions.
Cons: There was no AC in the rooms and we were there during a heat wave. The street it was located on had several drug users soliciting outside. The street it is on was loud at night making it hard to sleep with the windows open and with no AC you had to have your windows open.

Pros: Nothing
Cons: We arrived after being on the road for 10 hours with a confirmed reservation only to be told at 11:45pm that they had made a mistake and there weren't any rooms available for us. After charging full price to my AMEX, they never made an attempt to contact me via email or phone and tried to repeat that they would pay for a taxi to and from the other hotel property they had transferred the reservation to without my consent. I go online and see that that hotel was charging half the rate of the Vulcan. Frustrating and highly disappointed by the whole ordeal. Cherry on top: when we got to the other Scandic 20 min away, we were greeted by a bathroom what wasn't cleaned and there weren't house keeping staff around until morning. Wouldn't recommend such an unprofessional chain if you have a choice.

Pros: Terrific value in Oslo. Walking distance to Munch museum (very close), central station, as well as downtown and harborfront area. Good, affordable (for Oslo) restaurants nearby. Hotel's extensive breakfast was much appreciated given high prices for food in Oslo. Taxi stand right out front and very close tram service was extremely convenient. Our room was plain, clean, and provided everything we needed. We were surprised by how quiet the room was, even being right across from the elevator. I would definitely stay at the Anker again in the future.

Pros: Property itself was great. Clean, tidy and comfortable. Superb breakfast selection!

4,0 Okay
Pros: the staff are friendly, the rooms are clean
Cons: It was our first trip and first stop in Norway in our life, our expierence with parking by Anker Hotel was absolutely terrible and we will not recommend this place to anyone else we care and will never visit this hotel again.
Ankel hotel has a parking place BELONGS to a private parking company. But on the entrance of the parking it's written clearly: Q-Park Anker Hotel. The parking lot welcomed us with a fine of 80 euro, while we were trying to pay the parking fee in the hotel, in about 10 minues before we returned to the hotel. Anker Hotel claimed they are seperated with the parking lot and asked us to complain to the parking company. How can a hotel list its name on the parking place without being responsible for the parking management? We have to pay this extra 80 euro for the 10 mins absence while Anker Hotel claims nothing to do with it. Therefore we regret our stay there and will never come back again.

Cons: The bed sheet should provide for free.
5,4 Okay
Pros: It's clean.
Cons: The hostel is very far from the central station. There is construction going on all the way till the hostel so it seems much more farther. The breakfast is for 45 Nok. They have only cereals in that. No coffee. So I'll say avoid. The hostel staff at the reception is not that helpful. They don't have a lot of information on what places to see around, good restaurants, money exchange etc.
9,6 Excellent
Pros: Great location and lovely comfortable beds. Staff really pleasant and helpful. Everything you need and value for money.
Cons: You have to pay for linens and towels which you must use.. 50NOK for linens and 20NOK for towels per person. Maybe be easier just to include that in the price??

Pros: Walking distance form train station.
Cons: Have to pay 50 NOK for Linen. No proper kitchen . Understand you need to pay a deposit to use the utensils.

Cons: There is a roof-top viewing area that we have access to from 9am to 8pm was locked throughout the day, meaning I never got a chance to enjoy the views from the hostel roof. Noise isolation wasn't great, you could hear the water pipes in use throughout the building.
