Hotel Bristol

Perfect spot for one night stop-over in Oslo

The hotel is very conveniently located in the heart of downtown Oslo. It is a "grande dame" hotel and has a mildly faded classical look to many of the public areas. The rooms have been well renovated and are comfortable and well furnished. Our Bathroom was well modernized if small. Service was excellent and staff friendly and helpful without exception. Breakfast was included and excellent and the special ordered Hot omlette was delicious and perfect.

There are steps to the front door which are a pain as you drag your bag in. Otherwise this hotel suited our purposes perfectly and was great value for monery.

We were supposed to stay at the Apotek Hote. We arrived early in the morning from an overnight flight from Seattle. The staff was so kind and got us into a room right away at the Bristol Hotel next door. They also wanted us to have a quieter room because of the Pride Celebration that week-end. Loved the location and the kindness of the staff, because I ask a lot of questions. Chris

The breakfast buffet was excellent. Room was well-appointed with wood floors and very nice furniture. Everyone we dealt with on staff was thoroughly professional. The lobby was impressive.

There are a lot of rooms and the hallways all look the same, as do the rooms. No big problem, but if you're looking for somewhere with period charm, you'll be let down.
