Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“Sommerro, in the elegant Frogner neighborhood, is one of Oslo’s newest hotels, housed in the former Art Deco headquarters of an electrical company. All velvet upholstery and curved polished wood, the hotel has a wonderful pool.”

Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Oslo.

 

CN Traveler review:

“To be in with the cool crowd who flooded in on day one. Since then, they’ve been trying Sommerro Negronis to the rhythms of a talented band, tasting the acclaimed Nordic-Japanese dishes of Chef Frida Ronge in Oslo’s first rooftop restaurant, and immersing themselves in the detail that designers GrecoDeco have sprinkled liberally around the 1930’s building. This is the new place to stay in Norway’s capital.”

What guests liked

All you need to know

A historic gem from the 1930s, once the central hub for Oslo’s power company, has been completely revamped into a high-end boutique hotel.

It harmoniously blends original Art Deco features with contemporary nods, transforming the building’s former authoritative charm into something more inviting and more opulent. The rooms are chic and imbued with personality, equipped with top-tier modern conveniences.

A sizable spa and wellness center boasts the restoration of the original public bath from 1932, paired with treatment rooms and a top-notch gym. Among Sommero’s various dining and drinking options is Tak Oslo, a unique Nordic-Japanese fusion restaurant offering panoramic views over the cityscape.

Certain rooms at Sommero come with private bathrooms fitted with showers and complimentary toiletries, and some even offer views of the cityscape. Every room at this establishment provides bed linens and towels.

Key attractions near Sommerro include the Oslo Central Station, Akershus Fortress, and The Royal Palace.

Exceptional

The sommerro has to be one of the most beautiful hotels we have stayed in. Paying a little extra for a suite gives you free entry to the both spa areas which is highly recommended. All staff throughout the hotel were fantastic, we felt like long standing customers and felt very welcomed. The decor is stunning and all very modern and clean. The location is ideal as everything is within walking distance but feels a little set back and not as busy as the centre so it's lovely and quiet. The room surpassed our expectations. All the staff that we were greeted or served by were fantastic. The Italian barman that served us was brilliant, very friendly and informative also. Great stay, would highly recommend.

Stunning hotel but dissapointed about the pool not being included in the price

The decor was exceptional and unique throughout the entire hotel. I found the breakfast super vegan friendly, one of the best I’ve probably had. We also really enjoyed the atmosphere and the evening band.

I was disappointed to find that the access to the pool needs to be pre-booked and has to be paid additionally.

Exceptional staff made the difference

Janine at the restaurant was amazing from the very beginning – her service and recommendations made our stay feel special. The hotel itself is beautiful, with an outstanding gym and one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had at a hotel.

The twin-bed rooms don’t have a phone and are treated like second-class compared to the others, which was quite disappointing.

Truly sensational, whenever we return to Oslo, we will stay at Sommerro.

The overall stay was just perfect. The arrival and the friendliness of the staff, they were so helpful! The breakfast was so great, so many options available and amazing food. Our room was amazing! The cleaning staff were great and really friendly. They even done a turndown service most nights.

Stylish and comfortable hotel. a great way to experience Oslo

It was beautifully decorated! The location was very easy to navigate Oslo. The breakfast was also amazing!

It was HUGE! We had 2 rooms and requested the same floor. They were very far apart from one another. Also, we were there over a Saturday night and there was a wedding and you could hear the music from the wedding in the room.

Great location, stylish rooms, superb breakfast — rooftop pool nice, but small and crowded.

Super location in Oslo, right next to bus, tram and subway. Easy with car and valet parking. NOK 795 per day. Smiling staff, everyone very attentive, efficient check-in. Great rooms in terms of style - retro, large bed (very soft), large bathroom. It is mainly double rooms. Paid extra to get to the roof terrace and pool. Decent area, a bit small, and on a hot summer day there was nowhere to sit (full). But we were able to cool off in the pool. The best thing about the whole stay was the breakfast. Fantastic atmosphere, delicious buffet, separate menu for omelettes / pancakes etc. It never happens that I am stuffed after a breakfast, but I was this morning, and was almost a little sick for having eaten too much.

Pay extra for rooftop terrace access. A bit negative is that once you have done that there is really no space other than being in the pool.

A lovely stay in an immaculate and very conveniently located hotel

Pretty much everything was lovely…

…. but it would have been nice to have a small vanity mirror in the bedroom to do make up 🙂 … and slightly weird to charge guests for a swim and sauna. 🤷‍♀️

An excellent hotel, a little on the expensive side but worth it. Staff were very helpful indeed.

Good choice of breakfast. The room was excellent and the staff (Emma on reception and Thibaud in the level 7 bar) were particularly helpful.

The people showing you to your table at breakfast and dinner had this insatiable approach of sitting people right next to each other even when there were plenty of spaces elsewhere - this is not always what people want.

Art Deco Gem with phenomenal breakfast

The Sommerro is a grand hotel, a fully modernized art deco gem in the heart of Oslo. The hotel made me feel so pampered. The rooms were luxurious, with every detail considered. We were a short walk to the waterfront with fine dining and entertainment. The breakfast experience rivals anything we've experienced, a truly gourmet, decadent experience. It isn't cheap, but it made our time in Oslo even more memorable.

The rooftop pool has to be reserved and paid for, which felt unnecessary given the price of the stay.

Beautiful property, very nice rooms, excellent breakfast and great food on the terrace restaurant. Visited the terrace pool which was nice but very small, public transportation is very conveniently located right outside, Aker Brygge area just a few minutes away. Loved this hotel.

A bit expensive, but worth it.

The hospitality, cleanliness, delicious breakfast, and high-level security — including elevator access only with a room key — were outstanding. Special thanks to Mr. Mohamed Amin for his warm and cheerful welcome. Truly one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at — I’d give it 6 stars if I could!

A luxurious city centre hotel

This is a luxurious, very well appointed hotel, well situated for the commercial part of town, with the waterfront fifteen to twenty minutes’ walk away. The service at the hotel is excellent, and the breakfast buffet up there with the very best. It’s great that they are dog friendly, at least as far as having them stay in designated rooms is concerned.

Aside from the cost, there’s really nothing not to like. Some reviews mention noise, but I had a room facing the internal courtyard and it was completely quiet, with no noise even from the adjacent rooms. A good tip is not to go down to breakfast until ten or fifteen minutes after opening time, as to begin with there can be queues (at weekends at least) and it takes them a bit of time to seat people.

Great location, perfect hotel in Oslo, location is great, restaurants around are great!

The atmosphere The spa The gym The design The rooftop bar … So much more

The spa shop staff could improve their service. Unfortunately, the staff at the spa shop weren’t very helpful or friendly. A bit more explanation and a warmer welcome would have made a big difference. The spa/gym/pool area is set up differently than in most hotels, which can be confusing for guests. It’s a pity, as a clearer introduction would help set the right tone for the experience.

I am definitely not going to look for another option when traveling back to Oslo!

Beautiful accommodation. Fantastic restaurants. Best hotel gym ever!

Paid for wellness spa but no one advised the male sauna was out of order. Downstairs Spa facilities were underwhelming - nowhere to relax indoors and little helpful guidance from staff. No free access to rooms so have to wait in reception for someone to let you through doors - reception often unmanned. Really poor standard massage

Lovely luxury

Sommerro is pure luxury. Our room was gorgeous and the breakfast was the best hotel breakfast I’ve probably ever had.

During our stay the pool was fully booked, which as guests we found quite frustrating. We also didn’t like having to pay to use the pool as guests, as the rooms aren’t exactly cheap. Little things like that feel like a shame when everything else is so immaculate.
