Oslo zu Fuß? Im Scandic kein Problem!
Pros:

Die Lage ist ideal für die Erkundung der Stadt Oslo. Wir konnten mit einer Übernachtung fußläufig alle Orte erreichen, die wir uns zur Besichtigung vorgenommen hatten. Angenehm, wenn auch ein wenig eng, ist die Tiefgarage mit direktem Zugang zur Rezeption. Das Scandic hatte zu unserer Reisezeit das günstigste Angebot in Oslo.

Cons:

Das Haus ist ein wenig in die Jahre gekommen. Insgesamt wirkt die gesamte Hotelausstattung renovierungsbedürftig. Für unsere Übernachtung war das jedoch noch immer ausreichend denn immerhin haben wir von einem günstigen Angebot profitiert.

Great value for an excellent location.
Pros:

Very convenient location, easy to walk or take the tram pretty much anywhere you would want to go. Very close to the best coffee in Oslo (Fuglen).

Desayuno excelente, hotel descuidado
Pros:

La ubicación es excelente, perfecta para moverse por Oslo andando. Además, el desayuno era súper completo, variado y estaba muy bueno.

Cons:

Durante los tres días que estuvimos no hicieron la habitación. Además, había polvo y el hotel se nota bastante desmejorado por el uso. En general, nos pareció caro para la relación calidad-precio que ofrece.

Loved everything about our hotel stay, especially the breakfast buffet!
Pros:

Bed was very comfortable. Location was great. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. And breakfast was incredible, exactly what I was looking forward to in Norway. Especially appreciated being able to select a full lunchbox from the buffet to bring on the train trip to Bergen, for a most reasonable price.

Cons:

A minor thing: the suitcase ramp at the front entrance was difficult to use. I think it could be improved.

Très bien !
Pros:

L'emplacement était parfait, très facilement accessible, à pieds et en transports en commun. La chambre choisie était petite, mais était tout à fait suffisante pour moi avec tout le confort nécessaire.
J'ai été très bien accueillie et renseignée par le personnel à l'accueil, merci !

Good Scandic hotel
Pros:

The staff was lovely, so helpful, giving us suggestions and directions. The facility was good and the location was great. There is an exceptionally good noodle bar across the street and the hotel is close to the central station.

Cons:

There isn't any place to put our bags or hang clothes.
