Round Bygdoy

Everything is great except the shower door. It gets water all over the bathroom and on the floor. I was afraid I was going to fall and I’m a pretty limber person. Also there was no soap at all. Not sure I missed that it wasn’t provided or housekeeping forgot it.

1. Hotel itself was charming, especially the bar and dining area. Breakfast was great. 2. Our room was small, not furnished for us to unpack our suitcases, so we had to pull them out every day to get our clothes; the closet was dark and inconvenient. 3. The room had no ventilation, and the small refrigerator contributed to the heat. When we opened the windows to cool down, the noise outside was too loud. Upon request, the staff did provide a desk fan, which helped. 4. It was Summer, so the sun was up most of the night. Again, the staff provided darkening curtains upon our request, but why did we have to ask? 5. The bathroom had minimal shelving, so we moved the luggage rack into the bathroom to place our toiletries. And the bathtub had no non-slip mat or safety bars for us seniors. I shared my concerns when we checked out with the hope some of these issues will be corrected for the next guests.

There’s no denying this is the best hotel in Oslo. From the moment we stepped in the door, the service was on another level. Everything here feels premium, from the incredible cocktail menu at the bar to the out-of-this-world breakfast. It’s unfair to call it a “hotel breakfast,” honestly… it’s a five-star dining experience. I could go on, but this property is simply outstanding, and if you have the opportunity to stay here, you should.
