Pros: Friendly & allways helpfull staff. Especially wonderful polite and smily "omelett" boy in the breakfast room even I didn't eat omelett because I'm vegan : ) Peaceful, clean gym & spa was very relaxing every morning, and was open 05-23. Lobby's elevator wall was exiting - changing waterfall - blowing sand - to broken ice WAU!!!

Pros: Superb choice for breakfast (which is included in the room price) Very simple and easy to navigate with keycard Very stylish Central Location, next door to main train station, bus and tram routes, and a 5 minute walk to most ferries.

Pros: I loved the sheets! Also bought then from the gift shop.

Pros: Lobby bar is amazing & with fantastic cocktails. We enjoyed a quiet dinner, quiet room, and the relaxing spa.

Cons: Nothing. Nothing at all.

Pros: Great location, excellent staff, nice spa with indoor pool. There was a power outage in the city the morning we were leaving and a gentleman at the from desk was very helpful.

Cons: Out bathroom was very small, did not expect that for this kind of property. Hallways look dated and dark.

Pros: Good food, and great bed

Cons: Nothing really

Pros: The location is fantastic as it's close to all the shops, restaurants and bars. It's also close to the main touristic sites and tour bus area. Customer service was overall fantastic, and most of the staff went out of their way to make our stay wonderful. You could feel customer service was of utmost importance in this hotel, and that is what provides a 5* experience. Special thanks to Nash and Marcus who were absolutely brilliant and you could see they were passionate about their jobs. Jaume was so lovely, and Helge and Teresa were professional and empathetic when dealing with a concern of ours. Christian also helped us a lot when my husband lost his wallet in a taxi! Thanks to all! Though the room service menu was limited, the food from Palmen restaurant was really delicious. The hotel itself is indeed very "grand" and has many great facilities including a spa with a wide choice of treatments. The bed was very comfortable and shower powerful! My husband does a lot of business in Norway and we will certainly stay at the Grand Hotel every time we visit Oslo.

Cons: Though the hotel itself is grand, we felt the room was poorly thought out, and felt more like a 'show room' instead of a practical living space. There were 5 plug points by the bed but not really anywhere else. It would have been much more convenient to have them located all around the room. This meant we had to charge our laptops, phones, iron and boil the water, all in the same area. A full length mirror was only available in the bathroom, which is behind the towel shelf. It would have been better to have a full length mirror available on the back of the room door or wardrobe door. No heated mirror in the bathroom meant it steamed up and you couldn't immediately apply skincare or makeup or shave, as you'd have to wait some time for the steam to clear up. No other mirror in the room itself, so you had to rely on the bathroom's one. Though there was a kettle, there was no Nespresso machine. Peep hole too high (even though I'm 5'6") as it was clearly designed for tall Norwegians. No complimentary water bottles were provided. Storage space was very very limited, and therefore we had to keep a lot of our belongings in our suitcase or cramped in the little space they did have. On one occasion, the cleaner didn't hoover our room properly, even though we had left a tip for them. They had also thrown my cleansing cloth in with the hotel laundry and this was difficult as I couldn't get it back afterwards or buy another one in Oslo. Though customer service was overall great, our first contact with the hotel was with Odd, who considering he's Head Concierge, didn't appear empathetic at all with our concerns. With our first dialogue on the phone, he appeared disinterested, bored and answered with a lot of "um hmms" which isn't professional. Though this was a negative start to our Grand Hotel experience, luckily the remainder of staff made up for what Odd lacked in customer service.

Pros: Loved it

Pros: It was possible to make a booking in the last minute.

Cons: Our room overlooked a noisy courtyard.

Pros: Room was good and well maintained. Staff were very good. Excellent location.

Cons: The hotel hallways were not cleaned.

Pros: Amazing Hotel, fantastic Spa.

Cons: The rooms next door to us were very loud. we were kept awake at 2am from a TV on full blast. Reception dealt with our complaint, however the TV stayed on but turned down.

Pros: Excellent service & Staff Very good location

Pros: the decor is elegant , the rooms quiet and large and the breakfast was amazing

Cons: The spa/pool area is very small. I would not pay to use it. The massage staff was not expert- seemed to be self taught did not know real techniques.

Pros: Nice hotel! Rooms are small but very cozy and clean, for me was best for alone traveller. Dinners and breakfasts are great, tasty and great assortment. Location is good for those who exploring city and suburbs - railway terminal, and nest of bus and tram lines.

Cons: Street is little bit noisy at weekend night, so if you need total relax and quiet, try selected another hotel from this hotel family.

Pros: Dinner being included in the room rate was great. Food was very good although the staff doesn't seem to replace food when is over, i.e. guests will have to ask for more food as they would find baskets/trays empty.

Cons: Rooms are small. The bathroom door in our room was opaque glass and it didn't leave much of privacy. Anyone sitting on/lying in bed would be able to see the other person in the bathroom.

Pros: Super friendly staff, not only breakfast but a generous dinner included as well. Internet speed higher than our nbn in Australia (60 down and 90 up). I like their efforts to reduce waste, both with reminders in the restaurant to “Take what you want but eat what you take” and with large soap wall dispensers in the shower and next to the basin. Bed is super comfy. The hotel provided a Bose Bluetooth speaker to connect to. Room is adequately sized, shower is nice. Could not really fault this hotel.

Cons: The wine selection is rubbish and both wine and beer are very expensive for what they are, but that’s mostly Norway I think

Pros: The breakfast is exceptional. The included evening meal is good, making it It a solid value.

Pros: Bed very comfortable Breakfast very nice Staff very friendly

Cons: Cleaner did not put enough towel and enough shampoo and shower gel for two

Pros: A lot of choice for breakfast.

Cons: A bit noisy because of works inside the hotel.

Pros: Great location - very central. Very friendly, helpful staff. Very well equipped room.

Cons: Was advertised as having a gym - didn't see any trace of it - but had no time to use it anyway. I had to leave before Breakfast started both days which was unfortunate, but was provided with a breakfast bag on day 1. Wish Breakfast started at same time all week. Couple of load noises from street below woke me up - what appeared to be a keg being dropped at around 1:30am and a car honking at around 3 or 4 am. Otherwise no problem sleeping.

Pros: A very comfortable stay in a wonderful city that we quickly fell in love with. - The breakfast buffet was simply amazing. - The staff were very helpful and friendly and always professional. - Our room was so quiet and comfortable and the heated bathroom floor was an absolute luxury. - The location was super convenient. - The free dinner, although more limited in options than the breakfast, was a lovely bonus considering how expensive the restaurants are in Oslo.

Cons: Can’t complain about something free but a vegetarian option for the dinner would have been welcomed.

Pros: Breakfast and location were excellent

Cons: no outlook from room was a shame (just into the space in the middle of the hotel where they keep the bins etc)

Pros: Location was good. Room was clean but basic. Nice touch to have complimentary tea and coffee available downstairs.

Cons: TV didn't seem to work and the rooms are small and fairly basic.

Pros: Central location easy to find. Staff always welcoming and helpful - everything with a smile! We were able to check in early and check out late which fitted well around our arrival/departure times. Loved that there was coffee, water and fruit always available and the evening light meal a godsend in this expensive city. Breakfast spread was varied and catered to all tastes bearing allergies in mind. Would definitely recommend.

Pros: The breakfast and dinner was INCREDIBLE. I would come back for that alone. The vibe of this hotel is super hip and chic with funky wallpaper and decor throughout. The location is ideal for travelers looking to make the most of Oslo and surrounding areas. Less than 5 minutes from the train station and cool bars and restaurants. Staff were friendly and the room had everything I needed (fridge, safe, iron). Also, the fitness center on the top floor had the perfect amount of equipment for those who need to get in a workout. I would definitely recommend this place for solo travelers or groups.

Cons: My only complaint is quite detailed: I stayed in a single room and the twin bed was anchored to the wall. Upon close inspection I found a lot of dust/debris/crumbs between the mattress and the wall. It was a bit disconcerting to know I was sleeping so close to that. If the bed could be moved away from the wall and thoroughly cleaned I would give this a full-star review.

Cons: Restaurant staff cleared away breakfast things too swiftly; had coffee and juice on table and got up to get a pastry - came back and our drinks cleared and other people sitting at the table. Plenty of seats/tables free and were only gone less than a couple of minutes.

Pros: It is nice hotel. Reception staff and restaurant staff very friendly and nice and helpful.

Cons: I expect better standard, I do not think I will stay there one more time , when I will travel to Oslo.

Pros: Excellent breakfast buffet, very wide choice and friendly service. Location is ideal, close to the train station, city centre and opera house.

Cons: Pool facilities rather poor. There were only small changing rooms which were not connected to the pool itself, and there were no lockers. And no towels.

Pros: I Enjoy, think

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Great location! Right in the city centre.

Cons: Dirty carpets, bed linen not freshly washed, bed bugs, worn out building. needs a renovation.

Cons: Arrived at 1am from a flight, to be told there were no rooms with single beds, as per booking, had to share a bed with e other adult I was travelling with ! Would if refused if our arrival was earlier, the receptionist did apologies as could see it was for 2 single beds on the system, but no offer to even reduce the price of the booking to compensate, very poor. And then booking.com tried to say it says on the hotels site that they can’t guarantee bed availability! I didn’t book it on their site I booked it via booking.com, where it does not say that anywhere! As many adults travel together who do not wish to share a bed I imagine it is unlikely stayed anywhere that single beds are subject to availability! Outrageous! If there was no availability for that evening then the booking shouldn’t of accepted it

Pros: Gym has an amazing view, sauna on 34 floor has a window in it which looks over the City

Cons: Room had no electricity when I arrived Safe did not work Lift software is the worst I’ve ever come across and I must have waited for 30mins each day in total for lifts No late checkout possible, even when I offered to pay!

Pros: Great location just next to main train station, the amazing views, great room comfort, helpful and professional staff, efficient lift system, rich breakfast, good business center, swimming pool & sauna are great perks.

Cons: Fitness center could be better equipped for such a large hotel, and also temperatures were quite high up there which came mixed with the below-lying kitchen´s smells.

Pros: It was clean

Cons: The hotel was very basic. We had stayed in a Thon hotel for two nights prior and this was much nicer. Breakfast had more choice and tv had more channels. The swimming pool is on a different floor to changing rooms so had to walk in a towel down some stairs. Outside lift was not working which my daughter wanted to use. Then found out lift was working but not for hotel guests.

Cons: The whole place is old and worn out. The sauna is only existing on paper. The swimming pool is cold, old, hard to reach and its walls are dirty. The breakfast is oookay, the seats are cramped and the service is ooookay too.

Pros: Great design and amenities, helpful staff (especially front desk and restaurant), amazing food and taste of Norway in restaurant. Good leisure facilities. Surprise upgrade to a business room for being a return traveller. Fantastic location.

Cons: Housekeeping in the room. Found a little brown "surprise" in the toilet when first arrived and spotted some black residue coming off of the plug in the bath

Pros: Yes they were I had a lot

Cons: Nothing
