“This hotel makes a striking impression with its daring blend of modern design and curated artwork. The rooftop bar offers stunning panoramic views, and the location is superb, near the Astrup Fearnley Museum and Aker Brygge; still, service lapses and room maintenance issues are a concern. It's a stylish choice, but be sure to confirm all amenities are in order.”

the hotel seemed to miss a few details. there were no slippers in my room upon arrival. i also found the breakfast selection a bit limited considering the hotel's supposed high standard. the pastries seemed stale one morning and the hot dishes were not consistently warm. i expect perfection at this price point but the breakfast needed improvement. the coffee also tasted weak. the lack of attention to detail affected my perception of value.
