Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Oslo Guldsmeden Hotel from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Oslo Guldsmeden is often praised for its convenient location, placing guests within walking distance of the waterfront, museums, shops, and theatres, with easy access to the National Theatre train station. Many find the eco-style decor charming and the rooms cozy, some even featuring a desk, armchair, TV, and radio. The breakfast is well-regarded, and while some guests have noted that certain rooms can feel small, the overall experience often feels worth the price, enhanced by the body creams and lotions provided.

the location proved quite convenient, with easy access to nearby restaurants. i found the decor in my room good and cozy. complimentary coffee and water available in the dining area proved quite useful.

i did notice the hallways were rather dark, with several ceiling lights missing bulbs. the walls in the room did show signs of wear, with some areas appearing dirty. there was not individual thermostats, so adjusting the room temperature was not possible.
