2 Best Hotels in Oslo, Norway

Background Illustration for Hotels

Most lodgings are central, just a short walk from Karl Johans Gate. Many are between the Royal Palace and Oslo S Station, with the newer ones closer to the station. For a quiet stay, choose a hotel in either Frogner or Majorstuen, elegant residential neighborhoods behind the Royal Palace and within walking distance of downtown. Television and phones can be expected in most Oslo hotel rooms, and Internet connection is found in all but budget hotels. Most hotels in Oslo include either a full or continental breakfast in their rates.

Comfort Hotel Grand Central

$$$$ | Jernbanetorget 1, 0154, Norway
Behind the central train station, this modern hotel would be popular for the location alone, but it also scores points for smart, sensible design. The reception area is bright and comfortable, a great place to tap out a few emails on your laptop and watch the people, and the restaurant serves top-notch seafood. The guest rooms are spacious, and some have views of the opera house.
