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.”

Featured in CN Traveler’s Hotlist 2023.

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.

Beautiful accommodation. Amazing gym. Underwhelming spa

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

Stellar. No notes.

The Somerro is world class. Truly an outstanding stay. The staff are amazing. The food is great. The room is comfortable and beautiful. The facilities are stellar. The gym is the best I have seen in a hotel and I am an avid lifter - lots of equipment.

Everything. What’s not to like? The sommerro is what a hotel should be. It feels like the most decadent indulgent and chic version of home

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.

Beautiful hotel in perfect location

Excellent breakfast, amazing quality and choice. The decor and attention to detail in the hotel was impeccable. The location was perfect to explore the city with a bus stop and tram stop right outside and just a 2min walk to the train station.

Shorter wait for check out

A lovely stay in a beautiful hotel

This is the second time we’ve stayed in Sommerro and we would definitely come back again. The staff are super friendly, the hotel decor is beautiful and you have everything for a comfortable stay.

The pillows were a bit soft for us, so maybe an option for firmer pillows would be great.

Excellent stay, I would go back.

The breakfast was lovely. Location was great, it's right across the tram rails so we mainly used those to get around the city for shopping and christmas markets, etc. Staff was very accommodating even though we were extremely late to check in due to plane delays.

More options on the room service menu for dinner, etc.

art deco comfort

Nice art deco design is sublime and comforting. Personnel was welcoming and polite. The room apeared to be pretty spacious and well kept. We enjoyed the breakfast pretty much because of desent selection and relaxed atmosphere of rhe venue. Hichly recommended despite steep prise (no a surprise for Norway)

When staying on the 4th floor one mught be suprised by distinct kithchen odours. Drinking water is available from a dipenser of the floor, which is, no doubt, ecological, but pretty inconvenient, especially if you are a family of three and have only one 750 ml bottle in the room

We loved our luxurious stay in this beautifully renovated historic hotel.

The rooms were comfortable. The style of the property is amazing—superbly designed Art Deco restoration. And the breakfasts were fantastically delicious—everything your heart could desire.

Loved it but don‘t take the normal rooms .

Mega outstanding vibrant house.

Our first room, was a nightmare, especially for the league of the hotel. What kind of view did everybody has who was involved in the room design. And who is responsible in the management who sells that to guests.

Very comfortable

Breakfast fantastic with lots of Gluten free and dairy free options. In addition coffee was strong and black!

Waiter made a mistake ( added thousands of extra Norwegian kroners )on our bill and he wasn’t too happy when this was pointed out to him. Not impressed! This somehow went on to the final invoice where I had to again point out the mistake after payment had been taken off my credit card. I was informed that I would have to wait a few days for my money to be refunded back onto my card! This episode certainly took away from the overall positive experience of our stay. Do better!

Lovely place, terrific location, wonderful breakfast

Lovely, remodeled and updated property that used to be part of the electric company. Many upscale amenities, and the breakfasts were terrific.

The main downstairs pool was closed for cleaning while we were there. The rooftop restaurant closed early.

Beautiful hotel that feels like luxury!

Beautiful hotel and amazing breakfast. Attention to detail was great. Comfy room and the swimming pool and sauna etc was great. Also loved the in-room Bredo toiletries.

Breakfast service was quite slow/they seemed quite stretched over the weekend breakfast service. More hot veggie options on the breakfast menu. Location was great for getting to the airport but not as central as some other places.

Nice...not great.

Breakfast is extraordinary and gorgeous dining room. One of the best ever. Breakfast service however was not friendly and often totally missing.

Nice and solid but nothing exciting or memorable. The rooms photograph much better than they actually are. Finishes are decent but nothing amazing. My deluxe room was tight and a very sad exposure into a wall. Reception staff was good...housekeeping was inconsistent not replacing glassware or toiletries. For the price of the room, access to the roof should be included for sure. I didn't even get to see it -- you must pay first even to view or have a drink. Gym is a joke..the size of a closet and not enough room or equipment to get a workout. Should just delete it. Overall vibe never felt very welcoming or fun. The website feels SOHO House the actual vibe at hotel is more like a banker convention at a Ramada.

High design with great amenities.

The place was beautifully designed, the fitness center is top notch, I mean really good rivaling a pro gym. The rooms were clean, spacious and well designed. They have lots of restaurants, a cafe and spa facilities. Attention to detail was very good.

As many have said, they really need to include at least one pool free to people who stay there. Come on, even at a cheap Holiday Inn you get free pool access. Breakfast could be improved in terms of being able to get you own coffee instead of waiting for someone to pour you a cup, which can be a while when things get busy. Also the choices of hot dishes could be better.

The property is gorgeous. The room and bed were super comfortable albeit a little smaller than what I was expecting but that didn’t take away from the comfort or charm- it was outstanding. The breakfast was delicious and location perfect. highly recommend- wish we had stayed longer.

One of the best city hotels I have stayed at

The architects and the builders should be complemented for the outstanding design, finish and attention to detail. It as without doubt the best Artdeco renovation I have seen. The room was outstanding and the service complimented the quality of the hotel. Well done and send out thanks to the staff for a delightful stay.

Fab hotel. Comfortable. In a great location for a great city.

Art deco style. Gym. Bar. Tapas place.

Size of room for two travellers when one was using sofa bed. Not a lot of space. Also would have preferred a room with bath.

Nowhere else I would rather stay in Oslo

Every member of staff was excellent - reception, restaurant, bar, concierge. Breakfast was superior to that in any major city hotel in which I have stayed. the fabric of the building, both my room and in the common areas, was stylish and warm

The bottle prices on the wine list even for Norway were a little steep

Excellent location and breakfast, but a little 'style over comfort' for the price, in our view

We liked the location. We liked the breakfast. We liked the quality of the bed, pillows and bedding, and the furnishings generally.

The room was not quite the same as in the picture and felt even smaller with two armchairs virtually blocking the doorways. There was no sofa (as per picture) and hardly any room to move around the bed. I wish someone stayed in our room for a couple days prior to offering it to clients - it felt a little 'style over comfort' to our liking. It is possible that we did not get the best of Delux rooms:(( There was no slippers (only flipflops!); there was no non-slip bathmat (requested in advance) - at £350 per night this should have been possible - and no hot towel rail; operating the lifts, doors and lighting was quite confusing. The TV options were quite limited with only two English speaking channels available.

The best way to fall in love with Oslo.

It is a beautiful building with intricate details, gentle touch of Scandinavian contemporary. The best sunset view with great bar tenders, ask for Tibu the bar tender and ask Marek at the breakfast room for recommendations. I really enjoy the techno-gym equipped gym and wellness, roof top sauna overlooking the pool is astonishing.

I got lost a few times but the staffs were very helpful and friendly.

Great breakfast and the best gym in town!

The room was always cold, it was not possible to set the temperature. You have to pay for the pool and the restaurants of the hotel are always fully booked. It is difficult to get a drink in the bar.
