Sommerro

Reception staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great variety and high quality ingredients. Oslo sights, museums, restaurants etc are spread out across the city so location was very good to access most of these within a short walk or bus trip. Also close to train station for access to airport (given Oslo expensive taxi rates).

This is a luxurious, very well appointed hotel, well situated for the commercial part of town, with the waterfront fifteen to twenty minutes’ walk away. The service at the hotel is excellent, and the breakfast buffet up there with the very best. It’s great that they are dog friendly, at least as far as having them stay in designated rooms is concerned.

Super location in Oslo, right next to bus, tram and subway. Easy with car and valet parking. NOK 795 per day. Smiling staff, everyone very attentive, efficient check-in. Great rooms in terms of style - retro, large bed (very soft), large bathroom. It is mainly double rooms. Paid extra to get to the roof terrace and pool. Decent area, a bit small, and on a hot summer day there was nowhere to sit (full). But we were able to cool off in the pool. The best thing about the whole stay was the breakfast. Fantastic atmosphere, delicious buffet, separate menu for omelettes / pancakes etc. It never happens that I am stuffed after a breakfast, but I was this morning, and was almost a little sick for having eaten too much.

The Sommerro is a wonderful gem of a hotel, in a wonderful gem of a city! It’s Art Deco personality suits the neighborhood, the location is a 5-10 minute walk from everything, there’s two tram stations within 100 ft from the front door that will take you anywhere in Oslo, the staff is super helpful, and the breakfast is one of the best ever. They also have a jazz band playing in their main restaurant on summer weekends to go with the Art Deco theme, and the downstairs pool is drop dead gorgeous. Room sizes are good for Europe, beds are comfy and there’s black out curtains fit the long summer nights, toiletries are luxurious, and there are plenty of nice touches to each room. Overall, a very well thought-out hotel!

Very beautiful hotel and lovely staff. Our room was very small, but we loved our cubby hole twin beds with curtains, the single beds are really big and very comfortable. The breakfast buffet is superb. The location is great, very close to lots of attractions, and tram stop right outside the front door. Oslo is wonderful, stunning waterfront, Munch is a must see as well as museums peninsula and the Ferry journey.
