    The hotel was tidy and reasonably priced, had attentive staff and functional rooms. I had the buffet breakfast with organic products. Superior and ideal location in a quiet area made it easy to get to key attractions. Bar Hard Rock Cafe located 1 km away was a nice surprise. The nice service and the attention to detail! Loved a fabulous short stay, I would love to return.

    The value for money at this hotel is excellent and really central to everything. The basic amenities in the rooms, including the bathroom, are more than a 5-star hotel in Tokyo. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast, given its superior location, will go a long way in an eye-wateringly expensive city like Oslo- and it included smoked salmon, which is usually paid extra.

    All was ok.
