Great and cozy stay at Oslo city center, really convenient to be next to the Central station and also the early check in was super helpful after a long flight to Oslo.

Probably the most basic hotel.

Nothing to shout about. The most basic hotel we have stayed in. The bed was quite dirty also. Basically no amenities.

Hotel in need of repairs

The fit-out is in dire straits condition. Hole in the wall, broken toilet seats, run down door jamb. We would not recommend to stay in this hotel.

Average budget hotel

Totally average budget hotel. No frills. Not a particularly pleasant experience.

Decent hotel, wasn’t dirty but wasn’t anything extraordinary. You get what you pay for here. The lobby is kind of confusing and dark - common areas aren’t very well taken care of. The check in and check out process via kiosk was nice. Other than that it’s nothing to write home about

Convenient

Hotel conveniently located close to central station, staff less check in, a couple of restaurants and cafés are located in the same building. There’s also an umbrella renting machine for 39 NOK in case you get a rainy day in Oslo. Common areas were a little messy and untidy, room was ok with small bathroom. Convenient for one or a couple of nights.

Barebones room: a bed, a table, a chair, a mirror and a couple of hangers on a bar. That's it. No shelves, no box of paper tissues, no teakettle, no coffee machine, no TV. No effort in decoration to compensate for the lack of amenities. All this at luxury prices.

A Perfect Place (except room 613!)

My room was perfect. I have come to CityBox a few times before and have always enjoyed it except for the time I was given room 613 I believe it was, which was way too small. So small I could only stand in about half the room. That room should be turned back to the broom closet it once was!
Yann, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Be critical to choice of room. I got a room ( corner room) where parts of the seiling had a height of approx 150 cm.. During my first 10 minutes I bumped my head 10 times

Disappointing Experience Despite Prime Location

The hotel is situated in a prime area of Oslo, which initially gave us high expectations. However, our experience was disappointing from the start. Upon arrival, we were met with a rude and unwelcoming receptionist, which set a negative tone for our stay. The cleanliness of the room was below standard—no daily cleaning was provided, which was quite surprising for a hotel of this caliber. Most concerning was the condition of the washroom in Room 411. The toilet commode was broken, and despite our request to change the room, we were simply told “sorry” with no further action taken. Customer service and maintenance need serious improvement. Sadly, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel based on our experience.
