Scandic Holmenkollen Park, Oslo

View, breakfast

Lovely and quiet neighbourhood. Great breakfast.

Just check the age requirement for the swimming pool because it could be an undesirable surprise for the kids and the requirement is relatively hidden in the hotel description.

The view from our room was incredibly picturesque, the hotel oversees almost entire city of Oslo. We enjoyed the dinner and breakfast buffet, which was very varied. The staff was very nice and helpful. There is also a nice small place for kids to play inside the hotel, my son especially liked the table football :)

I had to ask for another room, because the cleanliness in the first one wasn’t acceptable to me. One other small thing which might need some improvement: when you‘re having a shower, the water goes far further than the glass panel and ends up very close to the toilet, so you have to watch your steps when you go make use of it :)

Highly recommend. Great, uncommon hotel. Breakfast was good. The view on Oslo is perfect. Rooms are clean and very comfortable.

Bit far from city centre.

Fantastic hotel with amazing views over Oslo

Steep walk back from the bus stop after going into the centre of Oslo

Very nice place with total view of Oslo.

Ras

The location and view were amazing! The staff was friendly for the most part

The pull out couch bed cover had a large stain on it - my daughter asked for another and was given a sheet. I had to go back, take the stained mattress pad back and ask again for a new mattress pad.

An exceptional hotel with wonderful breakfast and buffet breakfast. The rooms were quiet and beds comfy. And the view was amazing.

Bit warm at night and unsure how to lower the temperature.

The views and the location!

For people wanting to stay in the city centre, it’s not the best but for people wanting nature, it is great!

The view of Oslo was amazing. The staff were so helpful.

Superb breakfast variety, hotel beautifully located up on the hill, ideal gym facilities with premium equipment. Friendly staff, nice cocktails at the entrance lobby, easy to navigate around.

Inadequate bathroom drainage, needed to add towels to collect the water from travelling outside of the shower area. Rather small room for a family of 4, couch unfolds to a bed the clearly blocks the access to the small veranda.

Great view, nice and helpful personell.

The pictures presenting the hotel are misleading as they present the old, rustic part of the hotel while in fact almost the entire hotel is located in the modern building.

Lovely view from our bedroom. Good food choice at breakfast.

Breakfast too busy. Should be separate bookings. A little far out of town but rewarded with the views. As a family of 4 the room was very small.

Views, breakfast, lobby, and architecture

We requested 2 days to make up the room, and it was until the 3rd day they cleaned. However, after the cleaning, the used tea cups were still left there dirty. There are no phones in the room to call the main desk to request cleaning, towels, etc

Family room is spacious, good view, the dinner buffé is good

No power socket in the bathroom

Excellent location with great views of Oslo and the ski jump. Room facilities were new and comfortable as the place was renovated year 2021-2022. Adequate breakfast variety and overall helpful staff. Onsite paid parking with EV charging. Free parking nearby short distance of 200m from hotel entrance. Bus connection to Oslo centre tagged 1B, tickets from Rutep app, extremely easy to tackle.

Location and view from the hotel

Timings of facilities like spa.

The view at the top is incredible, very good dinner buffet, expensive but I think it’s worth it. Breakfast very good. Ski museum right next to it.

Sofa bed was not comfortable as it sinks in the middle and noisy springs. Not good enough to support even two kids sleeping on it.

The family room is spacious and comfortable, offering a wonderful view. The breakfast selection was diverse and delicious.

Location was excellent. Fantastic historic building. Staff were great. Breakfast was really good.

Breakfast buffet layout was chaotic and needs addressing. Food was fabulous though.

The room was big, stylish and clean. Wonderful view over the city and sea. Breakfast was good but very crowded. Good parking.

Flaws in houskekeeping. Not enough toilet paper in the room (less than 1 full roll for 4 people for two nights), shower initially out of soap and shampoo. The water was draining from the sink very slowly, hardly at all. These were not checked and fixed while the room was checked and rubbish taken away on the second day, so had to contact the reception. Other than these, the stay was very pleasant and we would come again.

Great view over Oslo. Big rooms, good Wi-Fi and excellent breakfast.

The hotel has two parking garages. It is quite expensive to park your car here and not included in the price.

The property is out of the hustle and bustle which is what we wanted after a lot of traveling to cities. The hotel is out of the way so it’s a good place to go if you want to enjoy walking around the hills. We really enjoyed the food and the spa (which you book in and pay for). The gym is fantastic. The beds were comfy. The views over Oslo are great!

The room was hot and the fans were loud so we opened windows for more ventilation. There does not seem to be air conditioning even though there were climate controls in the room- they didn’t work and it was fans only.

amazing facilities, gym, gigantic room for families ! plenty of space. the kids loved it

Amazing location. Easy parking, at a reasonable price.

Room was small. The air from the AC smells of perfume.

Lovely modern hotel, excellent breakfast, clean rooms, friendly staff, beautiful views, parking (although paid)

As the hotel is a bit out the way it would be good if they served snacks / food all day long as we arrived in the middle of the afternoon and needed something to eat

An exceptionally comfortable stay. They arranged adjoining rooms for us, and the staff were polite, helpful, and genuinely kind. Children could freely enjoy the garden without any concerns. The location is beautiful, offering a scenic view of Oslo from above. Breakfast was excellent. I highly recommend this place for travelers with children and their own car—it’s nearly impossible to find free parking in Oslo, making this stay even more valuable.

Nothing

Overall the property was quite pretty with a very nice lobby area. The location was good for walking and exploring around the ski jump area. It took a bit of effort to get into town but public transportation was quite easy to navigate. The family room was quite large and perfect for 4 of us. Breakfast was excellent.

The property would benefit from new carpet and some garden clean up. Rooms we generally clean though. The location makes it hard to go anywhere but the hotel for food, nothing very walkable. The dinner was either a pricey buffet or a burger for about $28 so we walked to the nearest store one night for food.

Nice hotel in old building

To big and crowd

Breakfast and dinner were amazing

Lower sockets didn’t work, pool was 16+, gym wasn’t included, dust on skirting boards, carpet covering over hole in floor just outside room

Spectacular views from the hotel. It was a a little distance out of Oslo centre but great transport links made getting to and from the hotel easy. Lovely comfortable room

A little disappointed we couldnt get the kids in for a little swim but appreciate its a spa. Managed to get open water swimming so all worked out ok

Everything was just excellent: nice quiet room, not too hot despite being hot outside, excellent restaurant, food and breakfast, kind and helpful staff. Superb view and location.

Very minor feedback: there was no towel to put on the floor after showering.

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The breakfast is good, although if you stay for a longer period of time, there will be no variety. The rooms are clean, the hotel staff is quick to respond and answer messages. The gym in the hotel is great 👍 High-quality equipment and a large space for training

I didn't like the fact that you can bring children to the gym and none of the employees enforces this rule. I felt anxious because the child could be seriously injured while playing with the machines. The hotel is located on a mountain. It offers a great view, but to be very honest, without a car, you need to make some effort to get to the hotel (if you use the bus, the way up takes about 8-10 minutes)

Beautiful location and the view was sublime very large smart tv's in every room with cromecast Food and drinks 10/10

Nothing :) its on top of Mountain, but í like that

Spacious family room, amazing view, super buffet breakfast, good facilities

Pool was extra which I didn't expect

Comfortable, clean, good breakfast, great views from terrace, hospitable staff, gym

Not much, note that swimming pool use is quite expensive and not for kids

Everything was just perfect, the bed and the linen were amazing, the room was immaculately clean, breakfast was outstanding, loved everything.

Amazing location

Amazing views, disc golf track and a pond behind the hotel, below the jump tower. You can opt for a walk around the area, lots to see and admire. Our family of four really loved it. Parking is well managed, paid parking in the parking house below the hotel or free parking ca 200m away. Kids receive a free mocktail upon the arrival. The staff is friendly and helpful. Breakfast is delicious. Stayed in the Standard Family room and it was comfortable, spacious, and clean. Would definitely book again.

A bit disappointed that visitors are not allowed to sit outside after 22:30 local time (we were told that it's mainly due to noise as it may bother other visitors). Would have loved to stay out a bit longer as you pay for location and the view.

Excellent views, friendly staff, and clean property.

Distance from public transport options.

This hotel was AMAZING and one of the best we have ever stayed at! Our room was fantastic with an unbelievable view of Oslo and open porch with French doors that let in a beautifully fresh breeze. Walking trails to the ski jump and an amazing breakfast with all the works! We loved the old Norwegian style and architecture of the historic part of the hotel. This is an amazing stay and well worth the extra money especially in a room with the deck and view we had! Huge exercise and fitness center as well!

Everything was excellent!

Excellent location, great view from the rooms, amazing staff and great breakfast!

Food options in the evening are very limited, buffet or burger, which in fact was very disappointing.

The hotel is located above Oslo, with wonderful views of the city. The family room was the most spacious we stayed in out of 10 hotels in Norway, with plenty of room for suitcases. When we stayed, the hotel was full of families with children of varying ages so it feels extremely well-suited for families. Breakfast has many options (and a gluten free section) and was wonderful!

Cleanliness beyond the general cleaning of the rooms would benefit the hotel. Hallway carpets throughout the floor we stayed on were full of stains. The sinks in our bathroom had a cool design but unfortunately the place where two slabs of stone meet to form the drain were full of visible mildew which you could smell once the water was on.

Excellent

Bed a bit soft

The views were out of this world!!

Location of the hotell

There are no facilities

Location, view, character.

No a la carte menu in the evening, only buffet

Good breakfast with wide variety of food. Clean room. Stylish main building.

There were some small damages/unrepaired issues, e.g. socket, piece of furniture. Shower head spayed water in all different sides.

Absolutely beautiful hotel! Well worth the trip out of Oslo. Staff was great. Breakfast buffet was by far the best we had during our trip. Dinner buffet was worth the price! Surrounding area was fun to explore. Highly recommend

A shuttle from train to hotel would be nice. The walk UP with your luggage was rough.

The location and views are incredible. Hotel, food and drinks were all excellent. My son very much enjoyed the buffets.

A little pricey for meals and wine but that seems to be Norway.
