Thon Hotel Rosenkrantz Oslo

"What a fabulous place to stay - lovely spacious rooms, high quality staff where nothing is too much trouble, and a restaurant that is lovely. Have to mention the fabulous breakfasts, and very attentive and happy staff - especially our blonde short haired lady who greets most diners - she is the sunshine that starts the day in the breakfast area. Loved everything about this place, including location which is perfect. If coming by train it is an easy walk here, don’t get a cab, they are scammers that try to rip you off badly. ALWAYS get a price from a taxi before committing to the ride. Thankyou Thon, your hotel and staff are a credit to the hospitality industry"

"Excellent location just a couple of blocks from the main pedestrian street. The hotel is walkable to most of Oslo’s main attractions and the staff was friendly and very helpful. We had a very nice room with a view and nice decor. It was an an excellent value for the price. We were there the night the Norwegian football team returned from the World Cup and 100,000 people came out to greet them!"

"We had an excellent stay of four nights at this hotel. The place has a mod decor. The staff is super friendly and very helpful. We had a few special requests and they handled them quickly. The location is good - just a couple blocks off the main pedestrian thoroughfare and about 1km from the main train station. The room we got was a decent size with a large bathroom. We were on the sixth floor on a side street -622. We like having an open window but at night the trams run very frequently until 2am so it is good their windows are quite soundproof. The other side street would be louder since there are a few bars right around the corner - so beware! They actually have ice machines on each floor! A rarity in Europe. Of course there is no AC since it would be seldom used though they did provide us with a fan. The breakfast buffet is fantastic. A great selection and their pancakes with salted Carmel sauce are awesome! The staff at the buffet was very friendly. Also for 125NOK you can pack a lunch from the buffet. This was a stunningly good experience! Bravo!"
