Hotels Near Oslo Public Library, Majorstuen in Oslo

I was at P Hotels Oslo in July 2022. I liked the experience. The hotel is centrally located. It’s very near to the Royal Palace, museums, the street food market, the piers ans a 10 minute walk from the Central Station. If you like to walk, you can walk for 40 minutes to Frogner Park. You may never have to use the transit system. My room was comfortable with its own bathroom (it’s not a given in Scandinavia). It had a window on the street. So it was noisy during the day but quiet late night. When I checked in, they couldn’t find my name. But this happens to me often when I don’t book directly with the hotel. The reception staff was very friendly, especially the morning (blond) lady and the afternoon summer intern. I did not like the breakfast they served. Might think of having it elsewhere. All in all, it’s a good place. If I go back to Oslo, this will definitely be my pick.

This hotel is well located to explore Oslo. The breakfast buffet is large, varied and excellent. The staff are friendly, but could be better informed to help guests with their questions. Rooms are relatively spacious with a. funky modern decor but aren’t cleaned unless guests request it. The included dinner can be hit or miss in terms of quality, quantity and service. Overall, a good, not a great, choice.

Very good location to everywhere . 2 stops tram from main station. Walking to shopping street nearby. Clean hotel and the staff very friendly. Good breakfast also.

Overall the environment is cozy enough but there’s some issues like the room had not be cleaned properly and there few items within the room is broken

A bit far from city centre,but very convenient by bus or tram. Staff is super friendly and the place is quite cute. Unfortunately my locker for the closet has broken when checking out, it took some efforts to solve..the reception girl is very helpful and responsible.

I would really have liked to have given this a five star review, because the reception staff were super friendly, making sure I knew where the tourist attractions were and how to get there on my first day and letting me use the toilet when I popped back on my last day well after I’d checked out, as well as giving me a room with a phenomenal view of the fjord, but a couple of things took the shine off for me. One was the lack of air con. I mis-understood how hot Oslo could be, which is kind of on me and not the hotel BUT the DIY open window and fan arrangement weren’t entirely satisfactory, and while I was in my room, I never felt entirely comfortable with how hot I was. I guess the opposite could also be true if you can’t control how hot or cold your room gets in winter (when I assume my imaginings of snow drifts is actually a thing). Secondly was the breakfast. I can in no way fault the food - smoked salmon, scrambled eggs, bread, carrot cake (always a joy, whatever the time of day), melon, cheese and ham, but trying to find a table was sometimes impossible. It was particularly difficult for me as a solo traveller. It involved getting up early, crossing my fingers and piling everything on my plate in one go, just in case. Some days it was fine, but one day, after walking what felt like the entire length of the shopping centre getting increasingly dispondent, I had to perch on the end of a table with a group of pensioners who were staying there after two weeks travelling up and down Scandinavia together on train. Fortunately I am mature enough to be able to make small talk, but I can see how it wouldn’t go down so well with everyone else. Coffee was also a hit hit and miss - I was only offered some two out of four days. These little quirks are a real shame, because the location is great (handy for the train and city centre tourist attractions), and as I say, the staff on reception were lovely (and based on what I heard while I was standing in line, some of the other guests can be quite demanding). If I’m in Oslo again, I would definitely consider staying here again (but maybe bring a handheld fan or multiple layers of clothing, depending on the season) and maybe avoiding the breakfast.

Nice hotel. Had everything I needed. Comfortable centrally located. Issue with this is that there is no public parking or pvt parking at the hotel. Hotel access is on a no vehicle access road. I arrived via motorcycle, asked if they new where the motorcycle parking bays where? Staff did not know. I found 2 parking bays after a hour of searching not too far away and not close either. Haha

We spent three nights at this hotel and while it wasn't terrible we would not choose to go back. The rooms are small and have minimal furnishings. There is nowhere to unpack and little place for relaxing or working. We did appreciate having a view of the Opera House but the extra money we paid for a balcony was wasted as the balcony had no furniture. The breakfast was fine; we did not have a problem finding a seat though others we saw did. The only 'extra' in the lobby is water; other snacks and drinks must be purchased. The staff was uneven. On our arrival day the people at the front desk were quite rude, later staff were pleasant. One note - though Oslo is a very safe city, the area around this hotel attracts what homeless population we saw in the city (there seems to be a drop in clinic there). While we never felt threatened, we did have to change our route near the hotel to avoid unwanted attention. Some travelers might prefer not to have to deal with this. We saw many other hotels in the area and think they would be a better option.

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.

Das Frühstück ist das Highlight in diesem Hotel, unglaublich gut und die Auswahl mehr als ausreichend. Die Zimmer könnten klimatisiert sein, das trifft wahrscheinlich in Norwegen eher nur auf wenige Wochen zu. Die Betten sind gut, die Zimmer ausreichen ausgestattet. Ich hätte mir eine Art Pantoffeln gewünscht, da ich Teppichboden nicht so gerne Barfuss in Hotels begehe. Vielleicht kann man da nachbessern.
