Comfort Hotel® Grand Central

The staff were welcoming and helpful and the location was perfect for public transport and many of the msin attractions. We had a great 3 night stay for our first trip to Norway/Oslo and hope to return on the summer.

Perfectly located inside Oslo S. Short walking distance to everything. Nearby Østbanehallen has several restaurants. Nice room with nice bathroom and good beds. The room was very spacious. Good, but standard hotel breakfast. Small, but nice lobby bar. An excellent view of Karl Johans gate, the main street in Oslo, and of Jernbanetorget itself with the very well-known statue of the so-called "Oslo tiger". The Oslo Opera House is very close by, and so is Deichmanske library and the Edvard Munch museum. The hotel is perfectly located in downtown Oslo

Horrible Hotel! Extremely bad, noisy and difficult to find your way. Stay away! The guy in reception gave a room which didn’t exist. It is like a labirynth! Big mistake. Worse than a hostel. Never stayed in such a place before. Noisy as well!.

Pros: Located adjacent to Central Station and close to the heart of town, close to Opera house, lots of dining options around Easy access to all transport options, including tram and metro. Quiet and clean room. Good breakfast Cons: Small room, only really suitable for one night Very little space for luggage No kettle, fridge or safe in the room

The hotel is centrally situated at the main train station. It is great for using streetcars, water taxis, and for walking in central Oslo. It is less expensive than many hotels. However, beware, if you have mobility issues, you do not want to take one of the larger rooms! We were in a room that was up two steps from the hallway, with a small landing. Enter the room, the bath, good size, was one step up from the bedroom. We arrived about 10am, but had to wait until almost 4 pm to get into our room. The hotel staff reported challenges with limited staff. Desk staff speak English, cleaning staff didn't. We considered the steps up to get into the room and the step to get from bed room to bath hazardous. We had a night light that we plugged into an outlet, illuminating the step at night. The light made the room acceptable. We would not rent it again. Other than that physical hazard, the room was large, comfortable, well furnished. Two comfortable easy chairs with a small table and utilitarian metal chair were the main furnishings. Twin beds were more like a king, but were comfortable. There was a metal frame with a couple of hangers, and a luggage rack, a couple of cubes, but no drawer storage. We had a view over the plaza and could see the Oslo Opera House. Breakfast was very ample and included a wide variety of hot and cold items. It was probably the best feature. The dining area is quite small, and again, requires going up a step to reach seating. Additional seating is outside in the hotel's restaurant, down a step or two. Another major benefit -- the hotel is in the main train station. It is ideal for trips elsewhere in Norway, or for the express train to the airport. There are also many restaurants to chose from, including Burger King, sandwich shops, and regular sit down restaurants. We were surprised to find that many restaurants feature Italian food. Not what we expected in Oslo!
