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.

We enjoyed our stay at the Saga Hotel

The hotel delivered as promised. Lovely, quiet residential neighborhood, away from the main tourist district, but easy to get almost anywhere on public transport. We enjoyed the breakfast every morning, which was first-rate. Staff were very helpful, friendly and accommodating. A small hotel, quiet and homey; the sort of hotel with an ambience that suited us very well.

No complaints. Dunno, maybe a few more hangars in the closet?

Charming Cleanliness

During our stay at the hotel, we were struck by its exceptional cleanliness. I had one chance to witness the cleaning staff in action, and noticed how thoroughly she cleaned. We really appreciated it. The breakfast area is modest and cozy, and the staff are very friendly.

The hotel seems to cater primarily to Northern European heights. If you are under 160cm, you need to stand on tiptoe when you hanging up the towels, using the magnifying glass, seating on the toilet, etc. This was a pattern we noticed not only at this hotel but also during our stays at various hotels in Norway.

A great hotel with a lot of character and friendly staff.

A good size room with a comfortable bed and great shower. Not far from the center of Oslo for a great walk through the sights.

The breakfast room is in the basement and the choice of colors for the walls makes it a little dark. Perhaps a lighter color next time?

The room was quiet. The breakfast was good, we appreciate that it seemed to be good quality food, we liked the location too. Afterwards we’ve been in other hotels in Norway and this one was the best price quality for us and the room where it was easier to sleep (quieter).

As we arrived the “welcome” of one of the woman was quite cold, tells us almost nothing, no word about important things like wifi for exemple and when we ask she seems to be quite annoyed so we didn’t felt welcome at all on the first place. But the other woman and the manager that we met other days were nicer and helps us to check the train situation etc.

A pleasant neighborhood. Fine and rich breakfast buffet. Convenient and spacious room.

A coffee machine but no electric kettle in the room. Attic room with no window which can be opened to get fresh air. No cable TV, with only a limited number of mostly local channles

Good value for money

Great, quiet area, a bit out of the busy centre but close enough to bars and cafes. Lovely, big and clean room and bathroom. Bed very comfortable, breakfast was plentiful and had lots of choices, especially the choice of coffee and pastry. Different selection every morning as well. At checkout staff was happy to allow us to stay in the lobby for as long as we needed to avoid the heavy rain and offered us tea and coffee. Would definitely stay again.

A musty smell coming through the vents in the morning.

The middle class of hotels. Kinda of nice but not wonderful.

The atmosphere and the bedrooms were very pleasant. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

The free parking is subject to availability, which means there was not enough space in the first day, because too many guests had cars. Also, when I entered my room, it had not been cleaned after the last guest used it, meaning towels, bedsheet, trash can and cups were all over the place. Luckily they had another room ready.

Nice stay in Oslo for a short stay

Wonderful breakfast, comfortable bed, friendly staff and a really good location. Also free parking was a really decisive factor. We really recommend this hotel for your stay in Oslo.

Everything was good, there is no room for improvement.

In the heart of the city

Central location, walking distance to almost all attractions (~2km radius); good breakfast, free parking

It is an old building that we can heard people walking up and down the stairs. But it was quiet after 11pm.
