Best Hotels in Sandvika

This hotel is very much NOT located in Oslo, it is on the outskirts. There is a train station nearby, so you can get the train from Airport to the railway station and then a taxi to the hotel (It is not walkable). The hotel staff are friendly and efficient, the restaurant offered good food and the breakfasts were excellent. The room was clean, had a desk and good Wi-Fi. Nearby is a large shopping mall that offered some additional dining options and a supermarket. Overall this is a solid option if you are in business in this district, it is not an option if you want to be in central Oslo.

The hotel looks cool and follows the Internet celebrity route. The details are very rough. The door frame of the hotel room is made of double-sided tape that keeps falling off and hanging on the door. The design of the bathroom toilet has a flush button under the toilet lid. Every time you use the toilet, you have to close the lid manually. The flush black sanitary ware looks good but the porcelain surface is of very poor quality and is not clean. I stayed seven nights and had a boring breakfast, but it was still rich. The main feature of the hotel is the restaurant on the top floor. It is said to be the best in Oslo. You need to make a reservation for dinner and don't need a white tablecloth. The smell is also That's it, nothing amazing at all. Maybe this is the Nordic style. The only compliment is that the employees are all handsome guys and girls with blond hair and blue eyes.

I chose this hotel to consider that the second day of the tour was at the Sculpture Park, and it was only a ten minute walk. The hotel self-service is also very convenient. If you have any questions, you can call to communicate with the hotel. The hotel is very clean and the surroundings are very good.

The location is on the top of the mountain, the transportation is inconvenient, the bus stop to the city center is about 13 minutes away, the train station needs taxi, Oslo nobles, in addition, a large part of the hotel is newly renovated, facilities and daily necessities are not yet available, the room does not even have a phone. The room is not small, the bedside table and table are small, not commensurate with the room area, the bathroom is large, but unfortunately the glass door of the shower room is not well designed, the water will still be immersed. The advantage is that the landscape is good, the breakfast is good, and the breakfast area is cute. The overall service is ordinary, not professional and procrastinating.

Delicious meal. Comfortable beds although the room becames too small if you need an additional bed. Very small bathroom, specially for tall people.

Very cool hotel in a very trendy, unique neighborhood. The staff was extremely friendly and our room was very comfortable. The hotel is easily walkable to a really cool neighborhood in Oslo but a bit aways from most of the ”attractions” if you are a tourist - fortunately Oslo is a small city. The only downside is the spa - for the price you pay for treatments/entrance, the facilities are pretty mediocre. The chairs are all plastic so it's really not a comfortable place to relax and there's no hot tub, aromatherapy, etc which I would expect from a property like this.

3 minutes walk from Skøyen train station, only 2 stops away from Central station. Quiet surrounding with supermarket, restaurants and cafes around the hotel. Breakfast is definitely the biggest highlight with plenty of options including hot food, delicious cinnamon buns, crispy waffles etc. Room is spacious with very comfortable beddings, fast wifi and strong shower. The biggest weakness to me would be the heating system which is way too weak to warm up the room in zero degree celsius. Other than the heating, this is a great place to stay with excellent breakfast. This would be a 5-stars rating if heater were stronger.

Thon Hotel Vettre Single female traveler on a weekend excursion to scuba dive in a Fjord and see Oslo. The Thon Hotel was reasonably priced and an easy bus ride from Oslo center. I chose it as I was taking a scuba diving class in Vollen. The bus stop is 200 meters from Reception. Nura the receptionist was more of a concierge. The check in was easy and Nura assisted with logistics to get to Vollen and day trips to Oslo. Nura is a star! The room was nicer than expected with a balcony to greenery. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom contained shower gel and soap and had heated floors. There is a fridge with mini bar. My hairdryer was on the fritz and Nura secured me a loan dryer from the hotel. The lock turns from the inside and can not be opened without turning that lock from the inside. Secure. The front desk has beverages for sale including alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages as well as chips. There is a Kiwi grocery store nearby. It is not open on Sunday. The restaurant was quite good for dinner with a nice selection of wines by the glass or bottle that you can take back to the room. Breakfast was included. There are juices, coffee and milk and non-dairy options. They had 4 choices of eggs, bacon, sausages, Turkey meatballs, roasted potatoes, and beans. There were different types of breads to slice as well as croissants. Many different types of quality cheeses were available along with fresh fruits and vegetables. There were yogurt and cereal choices as well. The pool was a decent size and offered towels, showers and a changing room. Vettre is beautiful. I would stay here again and I would choose the Thon chain again based on this experience.

The room is very clean and has hot water boiler. Hot shower is very good. There is a self check-in machine at the reception. My room at the street side and found noisy from the Train, but I like to listen music during the sleep, there is not a problem to me.

Cochs is located in a charming historical building within walking distance of most of what you want to see in Oslo. Your neighbors live in the Royal Palace! The adjacent park is a lovely walk, the waterfront and pedestrian walkways are 10 minutes away, and best of all there is a Rema 1000 grocery store 1/2 block from Cochs. Since a kitchenette is provided, it makes sense to dine in. Experience shopping and try new local foods! The staff is friendly and helpful, coffee free, the facilities are spotlessly clean, and the history just oozes out of the place when you walk up and down the vintage staircase. A loaner electric adaptor was offered when I realized I did not have the right size for Norway. On a scale of 1-5, Cochs gets a 10!
