“Most impressed”

The hotel exceeded my expectations. The staff were most helpful and very friendly.The hotel is very centrally located (close to the Royal Palace, City Hall, Opera house and any number of good museums). If you are going to museums and that sort of thing I recommend the "Oslo Pass" very highly!

Area recommendations

I visited the museums when I went to Oslo so didn't really tour the outlying areas of town.

Must see

There are a number of "must see" things in Oslo, but the number 1 is (imho) is the Viking Ship museum. Aside from the Viking ship museum, there are three other museums in the immediate vicinity well worth a look like the Kon-Tiki musuem.

“Beautiful Hotel, lovely staff, great location!”

A lovely Norwegian hotel, with beautiful decor and an oldy-worldy feel. All the staff were lovely. The breakfast was excellent with lots of choice and plenty to fill-up with to keep you going for the day! The hotel was quiet - I wasn't aware of any noisy guests. The bathroom was clean and had full bath with shower over, and was kept well stocked with Molton Brown products, towels, tissue etc. Overall we were delighted with the hotel and will go back if we visit Oslo again

“faded elegance”

We contacted them about the overly soft mattress and the wobbly desk chair both of which made my aching back hurt even more. They did nothing in response. The chambermaid was overly zealous in moving our possessions around. For such a supposedly "elegant" hotel, the buffet was average at best.: limited selection, no herbal teas, etc.

“Will definitely return!”

I can't be laudatory enough about the Continental Hotel. The service, location, and size of the rooms were outstanding. Then we went to breakfast and were blown away by the fantastic smorgasbord. Again not only was the service outstanding, but the quality and array of food was out-of-this-world and delicious!

Area recommendations

The wharf area, a 5 minute walk from the hotel, is gorgeous. You walk right by the Nobel Museum, numerous cafes and restaurants. You can take a ferry to the Fram Museum from the wharf as well.

“first choice on return to Oslo”

Our flights to and from Oslo both ahead of schedule.The airport express(Flytog) took less than 25 minutes to centre of Oslo alighting at the National threater station some 5 minutes from the Continental hotel. The hotel is of the classic style.The service was excelent,friendly but not intrusive.The decor throughout was to a very high standard,every where clean, tidy and wel caredfor.Our room was of the same high standard. The buffet breakfast hot and cold was the best I have had in Norway. The hotel is very conviently located for Karl Johans Gater,The royal palace,parliament,the Harbour and Akers Brygge.On the doorstep you have trams,buses, tube and mainline trains for exploring further afield. The reception staff could not have been more thorough and helpful with the problems of air flights and volcanic ash..

“Not a 5 star experience”

Very definitely not a 5 star hotel. Moved rooms 3 times in the first 20 minutes The first had a double bed instead of twin beds as requested. The second, a drab chintzy room over looking the courtyard, was sadly in need of an update. Building work was in progress and there was scaffolding covering the window. . Finally given two single rooms overlooking office blocks and cafes in Olav V ‘s gate. Small, modern furniture, wooden floor. Molton Brown toiletries but no bathrobe or slippers . The small double bed was comfortable but strangely had a single duvet . On Friday and Saturday night there was a noisy disco somewhere underneath the hotel and the music vibrated up the walls. The lobby bar didn’t serve tea, or anything else, after 11.00pm so had to have room service. Grumpy waiter told us at 10.55 that the kitchen was already closed for hot drinks. The ‘business centre’ was a tiny , airless closet . Breakfast was good but not 5 star and the tables in the breakfast room were small and cramped. On the plus side the location was great, and the reception staff charming.

Dining

Oslo is a bit of gastronomic desert with no real variety of food; every restaurant had almost exactly the same menu and lunch time options consisted of bread, more bread [with all the same selection of fillings] and cakes. Norwegians are not tea drinkers and Earl Grey was sometimes the only option.

“Excellent centrally located hotel in Oslo”

Oslo is a beautiful city and this is the perfect location from which to explore on foot. The staff are friendly and eager to accomodate, the rooms were very clean and well-appointed, and the breakfast is the best we had in Norway. Easily reached from the airport with the airport express train, which is fast and reliable on schedule. The hotel is easy walking distance from the National Theatre stop. Also located within in the hotel is the landmark Theatre Cafe which has excellent food.

Traveller's tip

Don't miss the Vigland (spelling) "sculpture park" in Oslo.

“Defficient Front Desk Service”

Comfortable hotel, great central location, 2 minute walk from train station. The restaurant (Theatercafeen) was excellent. However, the front desk service left much to be desired: a friend of mine was told that we had not checked in when she asked in person at the reception even though we were already there, and it took us 15 minutes to check out as apparently the person at the front desk was not familiar with how to process a credit card payment.

“Sehr angenehmes Hotel”

Meine Frau und ich hatten für ein verlängertes Wochenende ein Zimmer der Kategorie "Superior" gebucht. Das Zimmer war geräumig und geschmackvoll ausgestattet. Es lag im siebten Stock, was sich als Vorteil erwies, denn auf diese Weise hörte man von der Straße unten nur sehr wenig, zugleich hatten wir aber eine gute Aussicht auf das Nationaltheater und die Umgebung. Überhaupt ist die Lage super, da man die wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten zu Fuß erreichen kann. Das Hotelpersonal war stets zuvorkommend und freundlich, auch ermöglichte man uns, da unser Flug sehr früh ankam, einen früheren Check-in (11:30 Uhr) ohne Aufpreis. Das Frühstück mag manchen, der ein 5-Sterne-Niveau erwartet, ein wenig enttäuschen, für uns war es aber absolut angemessen. Wir empfehlen das Hotel jederzeit weiter.

Shopping

Tax Free Shopping ist verlockend, man beachte aber, dass man am Kontrollpunkt für die Rückerstattung der Steuer bei größeren Beträgen die gekauften Sachen vorzeigen muss, also wenn man fliegt im Handgepäck mitführen sollte (da der Kontrollpunkt im Transitbereich des Flughafens liegt). Das hatten wir nicht beachtet, und bekamen Probleme mit der Rückerstattung.
