Scandic Grensen

Good location, good breakfast, bed is not big but comfortable, friendly staff, our window was facing street which was a bit noisy

good hotel in the city center, 15 minutes from the railway station, 25 minutes from the DFDS pier, currency exchange 15 minutes on foot, metro and public transport nearby. we arrived late, settled without problems, the room is small but cozy. , all is clear. everything you need is in stock. liked the full wall window to the beautiful buildings of Oslo. breakfast is good, breakfast until 9.30, we came to closing, and stayed until 10.30, everything was in order. hotel recommend .

Super séjour au Scandic Grensen, établissement très bien placé en centre ville et proche de toutes commodités (tram, métro, supérette, boutiques, magasin de souvenirs, bâtiments historiques, musées ..), chambre de taille correcte, bonne literie, wifi ok, grande salle de bain et douche impeccable avec savon et shampoing, petit-déjeuner très varié et super bon avec une grande salle pour s’en délecter, personnel vraiment au top et qui a à cœur de répondre à vos besoins ! Je recommande les yeux fermés !!

It was indeed a great stay in Scandic Grensen hotel, very nice and kind receptionist staff (Nichlas and Brigette) very sumptuous breakfast, nice view upstair since we are at the top. Thank you so much. Recommendable place

Spent two nights here with great location right next to Karl Johan. Simple hotel with a very good selection of varieties for breakfast. Clean room but small, and the bed was very soft so I had trouble sleeping during our stay here.

In general, I liked the hotel. It is located right in the city center of Oslo. There are many shops, restaurants, cafes and many other different businesses and city sights around. The entire city center is pretty walkable. My check-in was very easy and fast. The front desk guy was very nice (as were all the front desk workers) and gave me a room on a high floor with a city view like I requested before arrival. The thing I did not like about the lobby is that it was very tiny, and there was not enough space there to sit, just a few chairs basically. Also the elevator was not very big, plus, it was slow. Unfortunately, my Standard Room was small too. Spacing was barely enough for one person. But in general I liked the room design even though it was pretty simple, but I still felt comfortable there. The major minus of the room was that it was not soundproof. I could clearly hear all the noises from the hall, including the noise from the elevator, because my room was just across from it. All the furniture in my room was in very good condition. The room was ideally clean. I really loved having a big panoramic window, that gave a lot of natural daylight to my room. I enjoyed the Queen-size bed, it was super comfortable. Another minus of the room was no refrigerator which was very disappointing. And one more issue for me was no actual closet in the room. There were just some hooks on the wall and also a little section next to the bed to hang clothes, but these hooks and hangers were not enough to hang a lot of clothes. Coming back to positives, I liked the bathroom. It was kind of small, but it was remodeled and looked very nice. I liked the heated floor there. And also the bathroom amenities were of a very good quality and smelled nice. Wi-Fi was working very fast during my entire stay. I paid approximately $110 per night for my Standard Room, and I find this deal was very reasonable for the good hotel quality I got in Norway, that is a very expensive European country. I absolutely can recommend this hotel for a stay if you go to Oslo and wanna be in the city center.

My first time trying out the Scandic Hotels was great. Awesome room, with super confortable bed. The personal is very friendly and helpful when recommendations are needed. My favourite part was the breakfast. Super good.

The breakfast was fantastic!!! The location was great-just a block off the the main pedestrian zone and between the train station and national museum. Room and bathroom were small, but nice and the bed was comfortable. Only negative was that the carpet in the room and hallways were pretty stained and could really be replaced.

The hotel is located in central Oslo which is a plus. Unfortunately at my arrival the room wasn’t properly cleaned. I complained to the reception and was promised better cleaning next day. This didn’t happen until my third complain. Almost every day at my week long stay there was some issue about room cleaning e.g. lack of toilet paper, bins that didn’t get emptied in my room etc. Overall the staff at the hotel were friendly, but the cleaning was not up to standard and was so poor that it effected my stay in a negative way. I don’t think the stay was worth the value/money and I can’t recommend the hotel.
