A lovely hotel in a great location.

2-night trip

10/10

Room is a bit more basic than I usually get, (e.g. no iron and board as no wardrobe - but was available from reception to loan) but nonetheless comfortable. Was concerned that it was across from the tramline but noise was barely noticeable. Shower was very good. Breakfast was excellent with a lot of ingredients that would never have been in a buffet in a British hotel such as avocado. Location was excellent, right in the heart of the city but away from most of the noise, yet a relatively short walk (even with luggage) to the nearest train station that could get you to the airport in less than three stops.

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.

I didn’t saw pancakes/waffles. The rest was perfect. Very walkable and centric for a great price.

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.

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

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

Ingen aviser. Bestilte matpakke dagen i forveien, men ingen matpakke. Ikke kvittering fra oppholdet. Det vil jeg gjerne ha kopi av for å få dekket Pasientreise.
