Chosen for its proximity to the club I was going to. Friendly staff, warm room, comfortable bed, clean bathroom. Breakfast excellent. Only downside the state of the clean but needing renewing carpets.

We were a group of about 10 people staying at Scandic Grensen. Had a long great breakfast with friends in very nice surroundings. Rooms and service excellent. Absolutely the place to stay in the center of Oslo city.
We will all be back in 2025.

Cool top-floor view
It`s a really practical location for a hotel in Oslo, great for visitting all the attractions in the city center and getting to public transport for other attractions. We were lucky and got a room on the top floor with a nice view, appreciated that

The breakfast was fantastic!!! The location was great-just a block off the the main pedestrian zone and between the train station and national museum. Room and bathroom were small, but nice and the bed was comfortable. Only negative was that the carpet in the room and hallways were pretty stained and could really be replaced.

Perfekt for sen innsjekking
Utrolig bra at jeg kunne sjekke inn så sent (01:30).
Veldig stille, behagelig seng.
Badet begynner å bli slitt.

Litt støy fra trafikken, ellers bra
Bodde her en helg. Perfekt beliggenhet, kan gå til «alt» i Oslo. Koselig rom, god seng, fantastisk frokost. Eneste negative var at det er ganske lytt, så man hører trafikken godt. Det går trikk, biler og utrykningskjøretøy ofte forbi. Større eller ekstra pute hadde også vært fint.

Un vrai raté
Quand on demande un lit double, qu on se le fait refuser quand on redemande a la reception sous pretexte que l'hotel est complet et qu on recoit un message comme quoi l'hotel n'etant pas complet donc qu'on pourrait avoir un lit double.... Qu'on demande un service écologique avec un seul passage ménage pour 3 jours et qu'il ne se fait pas...c'est sure qu'on recommande pas cet hotel !

Bra opphold. God beliggenhet. Rommene er veldig små. Savnet en lobby man kunne sitte i. Det beste med oppholdet var frokosten. Den var variert og god!
