All you need to know

Located in Frogner, Saga Hotel is a four-star design hotel that was originally constructed in the 1890s, but was then restored and renovated in 2011 by Delotis Design. The result is a historically significant structure that perfectly blends old and new.

Comprised of 47 thoughtfully-designed rooms, Saga Hotel provides a warm and welcoming atmosphere with soothing design elements. Room options include Double Rooms, Single Rooms, and Suites. Every room includes WiFi, a work desk and chair, a minibar, and a flat-screen TV. Upgraded rooms have separate living areas, Nespresso machines, sofa beds, bay windows, and/or meeting rooms. Apartments with kitchens and balconies are also available, located just around the corner from the hotel. There are 50 apartments total, which were renovated in 2015 to include several modern amenities.

You’ll notice plush furnishings, ambient lighting, and rich colors throughout each hotel space. On the top floor, you’ll find a 200-square-meter apartment with an incredible city view. Many guests use this space for board meetings, conference facilities, and TV and movie filming.

A complimentary breakfast buffet is included in the price of your room, served in the Breakfast Room. There is also an onsite bar and a restaurant with white tablecloths and ambient decor.

This hotel is located in one of the best neighborhoods in Oslo. During your stay, you’ll only be a 10-minute walk from the Royal Palace, a 12-minute walk to the Majorstuen metro station, and three kilometers from Vigilance Park.

Picturesque area with easy tram ride to city. Modern facilities and quality decor.

Excellent breakfast. Beautiful decor. Lovely seating on street for a drink. Excellent bathroom.

Too much of our room was dedicated to bathroom hence the bedroom was tight.

A hotel that you should book

Everything about this hotel is as described. A gorgeous hotel with a lounge area that makes you feel relaxed as soon as you walk in. The breakfast is great, one of the best. Location is great to be in the middle of all different districts (20-35 min walk), which if you don't mind walking it's perfect.

Nothing to dislike at all.

Our stay was easy - a great base for exploring the city!

It was very clean and comfortable - a lovely quiet neighbourhood but close to shops and bars and excellent transport links to everywhere!

Could have been a little more choice at breakfast…

A hotel and city I definitely would come back to

the Hotel is located in the heart of a beautiful city area // charming & cozy house - from size to interior to breakfast and team working there

the only thing which was hard for us or better our backs were the very very soft mattresses of the bed

A great location, excellent breakfast & super friendly staff. Would definitely recommend!

The location was perfect & in a quiet area although not too far from shops, bars & restaurants. A great selection at breakfast & a nice little bar area. Very friendly & knowledgeable staff who would go above & beyond to make your trip an enjoyable one!

Could have done with air conditioning in the room as it was quite hot during our stay.

Loved Oslo and the hotel was perfectly placed to take advantage of getting around the city.

Breakfast was very good, location was perfect.

The beds were a little too soft and we prefer a much firmer pillow. Also there was minimal room in the bathroom to put washbags and the items inside those bags.

Both of my rooms during my 2 stays were roomy, comfortable, and clean. The hotel is in a great neighborhood within walking distance to all cool parts of Oslo.

Small friendly hotel in a good location.

The property was centrally located in a quiet area but within easy walking distance to the city centre and public transport. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast was a buffet style breakfast which was fresh with a variety of hot and cold options.

Nice, quiet hotel.

The hotel is stylish and is located in a quiet neighborhood with large mansions.

There was a hole in the wall and the room was somewhat worn out. For users of public transportation the hotel is not optimally located. You need to walk for a quarter of an hour to get downtown.

The breakfast at the hotel was great. The hygiene is very clean. The bed was also very comfortable. The attitude of the staff is also very good. It's just that the traffic is a little inconvenient. It takes seven or eight minutes to get to the nearest bus. Everything else was perfect, it would be nice to have more paper in the room.

Great cute hotel in quiet part of Oslo. Fantastic helpful staff, incredible breakfast

Great breakfast, was not expecting the spread put on that we had but was fantastic. Comfy beds, clean rooms.

Bathrooms are tiny, If you're over 6ft you won't fit in the shower. Room temperature control was not the best, but I made it work.

Lovely stay in Oslo

We had a lovely stay at Saga Hotel. It is located in a very good position, so you can walk to the centre, or get public transport easily. It's clean and comfortable, and offers an excellent breakfast. All staff members are kind and helpful. We would choose this hotel again if we were to come back to Oslo.

My friends and I all found the beds and pillows to be a bit too soft and not very comfortable. The room also gets quite warm, even with the radiator turned off!

Great boutique hotel in a quiet - yet relatively central - part of Oslo

I have stayed at Saga Hotel Oslo before and had yet another great experience. The room was sufficient in size for one person, quiet, clean and comfortable in every sense. Overall, the ambience of the hotel is very somber and relaxing. The breakfast buffet is excellent (including good coffee of your choice). The hotel is located in a very quiet area, which is generally a plus although you have to walk a bit to reach the closest restaurants and the very centre of Oslo.

Nothing. Everything was great and I would not hesitate to stay here again.
