Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Probably one of the easiest hotels to check in and out of, an added bonus is the luggage store before and after check out which is extraordinarily helpful. It’s close to everything you could possibly want to do and in a great location relevant to cafes, bars, restaurants, the train station and local attractions. The room was excellent for how much it was and the staff were helpful when we asked for some extra towels. Will 100% stay here again or another one of the city box hotels in a different country.

A good basic hotel in the heart of Oslo. Rooms were adequate and clean. Nothing fancy but certainly provided a good place to stay in the city.

The location of the Citybox Oslo hotel is just perfect, it’s in the city centre, shops and restaurants, and steps away from the Oslo central train station. The room was small, but it was clean and the bed was comfortable. Definitely recommend it.

We were two adults. Room was a little small And uncomfortable. But clean. Bed was good. Had to leave window open for air so pretty noisy overnight. Bathroom a nice size. Great location. Right in the heart of the city. A lot of amenities here especially for children. Used laundry equipment. Worked out well. Had a restaurant attached to it. unfortunately did not realize that and wished I could have gone there for a nice breakfast.

This was as basic as a stay gets. No place to put clothes. Stains on the carpet. Everything was an upcharge. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Could hear noise from people walking on the floor above as well as the street. Very convenient location . Internet was fine. USB ports were worn out and didn’t charge. It was fine if one is looking for convenience and economy.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Pretty easy self check-in at kiosk and luggage storage available via kiosk. There was a host available if you needed help. Building is large and connected to a couple of restaurants. No appliances in the room, no TV, no closet or dresser - only hanging rods. Room is a good size. The common area had disposable utensils and cups, water kettle, microwave, and refrigerator but no stove. Coffee machine was available but not free. Lots of working USB ports in the room. Centrally located, near tram and central station. Lots of restaurants, shops, and markets nearby. Many closed on Sundays.
