Expensive but nice

The room was tiny for the price but it was convenient as our cruise was starting from there. Shower did not drain well and was not fixed despite notifying staff immediately.

Excellent value and superb breakfast.

Location is excellent and staff are very friendly. Breakfast was outstanding.

Bottled water in the room would have been a nice touch. There were a lot of glowing or blinking lights in the room at night.

Location was great. Large variety for breakfast. Room was spacious.

I booked a deluxe twin room and I didn’t want corner room at first so they gave us another room. The room had a small window and a pillar in the middle of the room in which I didn’t feel comfortable. Then I asked for the corner room again. The staff first claimed that the lighting and the size are the same but I remember seeing the emergency route map that the other room was bigger. The staff at first was a bit reluctant to change for me and I had to request several times and they ended up changing the room for me. The corner room ended up to be much bigger and has 3 windows. Overall the stay was great.

Clean and good bed. Also good to have a desk since I was working.

It was very cold in the room and I have never seen so little room. I tryed to turn on heating but that was not possible. The bathroom lacked a magnifying mirror typically used for applying makeup.

My second stay at this lovely hotel.

Lovely hotel in great location. The room was small and you have to climb over the bed to close and open the curtains as you can’t walk round it. The room was very dark too, insufficient lighting so difficult to see dark clothing which had fallen on to the floor beside the bed. I think there should be one good overhead light to help with packing to leave.

Very convenient place to stay

Great hotel. Convenient location. Friendly staff. Food in restaurant was delicious. Great cocktails while looking at the view was wonderful. Loved the way the lifts work.

The bed, it was way, way too soft. Weird pillows too, they were workable but one was large enough to use as a floor cushion and the other so soft it needed to be rolled twice to make it useable. Not enough storage space in the room or hooks in the bathroom. Room looked great but was more design over substance.

Clarion Hotel - The Hub. A large but very well organised hotel.

Breakfast was excellent. Massive selection. The breakfast room is a large area and although there were many people it never gets uncomfortably crowded.

I had a very nice room for a single person. My biggest complaint is, why do you have to have so many pillows and bed "ornaments". There is nowhere to place all this "extra junk" so you can go to bed. Even the bedside table is loaded up with lamps etc and nowhere to operate a portable computer.

The breakfast selections and presentation was as good as any, better than most, in my 27 years of travel.

There was nothing to dislike! We were so pleased with this hotel on all levels from location to staff to comfort. This was a perfect place for us to explore and enjoy Oslo.

Cozy and clean hotel, excellent breakfast, excellent location

The hotel is located right off the high-speed train from the airport, perfect for those who need easy access to the airport. I arrived for one night so I didn't have time to experience all the hotel facilities but the room was large and clean and the breakfast was very varied and delicious.

You stayed for one night and there was nothing that bothered me or that I didn't like. no complains :) But I did not use the various hotel facilities so my opinion is limited to the service, breakfast and the room itself.

Large city centre international style hotel very convenient for the station.

Big city centre international style hotel. Comfortable room. Truly excellent breakfast. They had a room at short notice.

I arrived late about 11pm. Hungry. Kitchens closed - no bar food or room service. Strange for a hotel of this size and style. No tea in room (only coffee). No complimentary water. Not a great welcome after a long journey.

Lovely central hotel but very noisy.

Great location by the central station. Lovely interior and very nice, clean and large room with great amenities. The breakfast was superb for this price range.

The noise. Unfortunately there was a ton of noise from the tram that ran on the street outside my window and it was very disturbing when trying to sleep.

Luxurious and reviving break.

Spacious room with a great view. Helpful staff. Fabulous breakfast. Very stylish hotel in a great, convenient location.

Management of fire alarm and evacuation was poor, exits needed me to be manned by staff to assist, especially those with small children or mobility issues.

An enjoyable comfortable Hotel x

Loved the location and breakfast and loved the rooftop bar!!

The air conditioning in the room was not very easy to operate? The rooftop bar staff could have been more friendly, as they were not the most welcoming sadly! The bar needs to purchase paprika or chillies to be able make a spicy margarita!🤗

Ideally located for a short city bfreak.

Location was excellent. We didn't eat in the hotel because there were many cheaper cafes and restaurants nearby. Staff were particularly helpful and the room was very comgortable/

There was no milk or tea in the room - just coffee and the machine was difficult to operate.

Fantastic hotel, definitely 5 stars, rooms very comfortable and spa was very relaxing and nice

This hotel is absolutely gorgeous and so modern and clean. I couldn’t fault anything. The room was very modern and had everything I needed. The pool area and sauna was lovely and again very clean.

The room was stunning, the breakfast was amazing. So much choice of food I was spoilt I couldn’t recommend this hotel enough. The interior in the reception was unreal and the bar and restaurants were really good.

Breakfast was a huge buffet with a wide selection with a large amount of availability. Nothing was out of stock. The hotel itself is centrally located and right near the train station which we took for the airport and for touring. We had such good experiences with staff (Emma who checked us in was incredible and super helpful!!) and the hotel itself was clean, modern, fun, and very comfortable. We liked the rooftop bar too. Would definitely come back.

Unfortunately the steam room was out of order but it did not affect our stay much.
