Reviews Summary
This summary was created by AI, based on recent reviews.
Powered by AI
The Radisson Blu Scandinavia Hotel in Oslo garners appreciation for its prime location, which offers guests easy access to public transport and nearby attractions in a secure area. Visitors often commend the hotel for its comfortable beds and the enjoyable breakfast spread, though some feel it's on the pricier side with room for improvement in value. While the atmosphere, particularly in the breakfast room and summit bar, is frequently praised, opinions on cleanliness and room conditions vary, revealing a mix of spotless and subpar experiences. Service also receives mixed feedback, with efficient breakfast staff contrasting with reports of a sometimes slow reception.

One of the better equipped hotel gyms I have used with a rack and barbell as well as a range of very heavy dumbbells and cardio equipment. The room itself was very modern and clean with a great view. The breakfast buffet was well equipped and had vegan options for food and milk.

Staff here were really friendly and helpful. I enjoyed my stay, the view from my hotel room, the food and the convenience of getting to key locations from the hotel. Further getting to the airport was easy with the Flybuss starting right from the front of the hotel. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

From start to finish an uncomfortable interaction with staff, felt unwelcome and unsupported by staff accross the stay. Location is good, and it's not dirty or super bad by any means, but if you're looking for an enjoyable experience, look elsewhere.

Clean hotel with good facilities. Tea or coffee was not replaced each day, take it from the breakfast service if you want and evening cup of tea. Including the milk , which isn't provided. Bathroom a little dated, excellent hot water and shower pressure.

Mixed opinions on this hotel. Location is excellent, lots of activities, restaurants, and attractions within walking distance. Tram and bus stop immediately outside for a those who need to travel to attractions a little further away. Transfer bus to main Oslo airport is literally outside the front door, however, does not service Oslo Torp (RyanAir flights). A separate bus and train service is available at the Central Station for this and charged at about 780ROK (£52) for two adults - (slightly cheaper if booked online in advance). The hotel is okay. Some parts appear modern and recently renovated. The website and promotional material shows off these newer rooms, but the reality is most of the corridors and rooms have not had this update yet. The corridors are confusing and dated. The bedrooms, although functional, are basic. The beds are very comfortable, but a bit on the soft side. Ideally the rooms are fine for a night or two, but lacking for longer stays. Staff are approachable and welcoming. However, attention to detail is lacking. For example, was told twice that breakfast was between 06:30am and 7am. When challenged that this was only 30 minutes and must be wrong, was then informed breakfast was from 06:30 - 8am. But on entering the room, a TV proudly displayed that breakfast was 06:30 - 10am. Secondly, charged a deposit for the minibar, but on entering the room, found the minibar completely empty - making the deposit unnecessary. Swimming pool and gym are both very good. Amazing views from the roof, especially for when watching the sunset. Room was clean and warm in Winter. Other guests were charming and there was a nice atmosphere throughout. Worst aspect, there is a nightclub/bar within the hotel itself. All night (and I mean all night) loud, obnoxious, bass music pounding through the walls. Was very loud on the 5th floor and not much better on the 3rd floor. This bar is on the 21st floor so must be horrific higher up. This music could be heard easily in the rooms whilst trying to sleep. Surely a glaring oversight for a hotel? Unfortunately, the music alone would prevent me from booking again. Breakfast was phenomenal, large and varied options available at a reasonable cost. Overall, an enjoyable stay, but there are better options available in Oslo at this price point.

Stayed in this hotel for 3 nights for a conference (at the same hotel). Painless check-in, friendly staff. Spacious room with the usual amenities. Clean and spacious bathroom. The air conditioning in the room was only capable of cooling the room, heating did not work (heard the same from other guests) so I turned it off for the entire stay. Air quality in general seemed a bit problematic, but the same was true outside (probably because of the cold weather). Nice breakfast with plenty of choice. Lobby bar and restaurant are basic but nice.

Central location is good, everything else was subpar especially the cleanliness of the room. Found lots of dust under bed and sofa bed. I was also charged extra compared to online booking, will follow up for a refund

The location of this hotel is very good, about a 20 minute walk from the central train station. Check in is advertised as being from 3pm, however when we arrived at 4.20pm, our room wasn't ready and we had to wait at reception, with no apology or indication as to when the room would be ready. The room was ready at 5.15pm. I think we could have been offered an apology or a complimentary drink, but never mind. The room itself was nice, we had a premium room with a city view, and the view was fantastic. The room was clean, although the tea and coffee facilities had not been fully replaced after the previous guest (missing coffee pods, no stirrers). There was also some chocolate almonds left open. We should have informed reception as it seems that we have now been charged for them despite us not touching them. The room has obviously been checked more thoroughly after we left. Breakfast was very good! There was plenty of choice and everything you could possibly want. I would recommend the hotel based on location, the lovely room and good breakfast.
