Hotels in Oslo, Norway

You can expect easy and convenient access to all forms of public transport when you book hotels in nearly any Oslo neighborhood through momondo. The public transport network is efficient, with trains, buses and trams at prices equivalent to those in the US. For the easiest access to public transport and tourist activities, stay in the City Center, or just a bit further out in Vika. You can get an Oslo Pass that gives you free public transport in these neighborhoods. You will also have easy access if you stay in Grünerløkka.

Oslo has a very compact city center, so if you’re traveling on business you’ll want to stay in the business hub of Central Oslo. You can easily book hotels in Oslo for these purposes through momondo – we recommend the Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel or the Smarthotel. The latter is also one of the cheap hotels in Oslo, and if you have an eye on business economy you can also opt for the Anker Apartment. If you’re on vacation in Norway or touring your way through Europe, then you can book hotels in Oslo in one of the more outlying and quieter neighborhoods, like the Scandic Olympiatoppen Sportshotel, with lots of winter sports activities available and the beautiful Scandic Holmenkollen Park nearby.

There are many popular attractions in Oslo to choose from. A well-known sight is the Vigeland Sculpture Park, depicting the cycle of human life. You’ll find it in Frogner Park, next to the Oslo City Museum, in the city center. In the Akernes area, you’ll find the imposing Akershus Fortress, built in the 13th century. It’s alongside the Museum of the Norwegian Resistance, which honors those who fought against Nazi occupation in World War II. You can’t miss the Viking Ship Museum if you’re in Oslo, with its authentic artifacts, including actual longboats. On a clear day, head to Karl Johansgate suburb, where you can marvel at the Royal Palace, located a stone’s throw from the venerable Norwegian Nobel Institute. Buses, trams and light train services will get you to these sites.

To reach one of the main neighborhoods in Oslo where many bars and restaurants are, simply catch a Ruter bus or tram to Central Oslo. Treat yourself at the Hereford Steakhouse or the Love Restaurant. The latter is a local favorite, serving Norwegian specialties. These restaurants are easy to reach from one of the Oslo hotels, like the Hotel Continental, using the single ticket pricing system that Ruter uses – tickets are valid for all types of transport. For bars, try Bar Boca, and move on to the Vulkan Pub, also in Central Oslo. The public transport runs into the evening hours, at regular intervals on the city bus line 30.

Norwegians love festivals, so you’ll be able to find these and other annual events in Oslo with ease. The Holmenkollen Ski Festival is held in Holmenkollen in March. To reach it from your hotel, take the Oslo Metro Line 1 to the district of Vestre Aker. Then there’s the Oslo Jazz Festival held in mid-August each year in numerous live venues in Central Oslo. You can take a train to Oslo Central Station. There’s also the Inferno Metal Festival, which celebrates a musical genre that has very deep roots in Norway. This is held over Easter at the Rockefeller Music Hall in Downtown Oslo, which is close to the central Oslo bus terminal. From there it’s a short walk.
