Saga Hotel Oslo, WorldHotels Crafted

Very nice quiet hotel. Excellent helpful staff. Great location and easy access to Oslo attractions. Very clean rooms and comfortable beds.

We loved this hotel. It was a lovely quiet neighborhood but easy to get to centre.The metro is only a 5 - 10 minutes walk. There are shops and bars nearby. It's also very close to Royal Palace. The hotel was clean spacious and friendly. The breakfast was great. Lots of choice and fresh. Great comfy beds and nice shower. All in all I would definitely recommend 👌

I really enjoyed staying at this hotel. I had requested a quiet room and they placed me in a room on the third floor that was truly away from all noise (a double room). The room didn't have a kettle (for tea drinkers its a problem) or a safe but it is lovely and I slept well. The breakfasts are good and have lactose free options but limited gluten free. Its in a residential neighbourhood so the area is also quiet but it does mean you need to use public transport or taxi's to get to the tourist sites unless you are happy to walk (about 25 minutes to the Palace). There are a few restaurants within a 10 minute walk. The staff were also friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Really lovely place to stay. What I really enjoyed was the breakfast and how helpful Elise and another receptionist was (guy from Nittedal). I wanted to change my initial room and Elise was helpful to get me settled for the week. Location is central to everything and it's away from the trikk so it's quiet and in a nice neighbourhood. The kitchen staff were also great, I was able to pack my breakfast everyday whilst staying there.

Friendly staff, clean rooms and a fabulous included breakfast. Would stay here again!

The front desk staff was very helpful and responsive to any room-related request. They also provided useful information about the surrounding area. The property is located in a pleasant, quiet part of the city, yet there are restaurants and shops nearby.

This hotel is in a lovely area called Frogner and only about a 10-15 tram journey to the central station, or a 20 minute walk to the palace through a park. We had a very pleasant room which did not have air conditioning so it did mean we had a fan on all night. The room was comfortable and the bathroom was well stocked. It was a very pleasant room and restful. The breakfast in the basement room was really good with lots of options and excellent coffee! The staff on reception were friendly and helpful

We absolutely loved the Saga Hotel! The staff was so accommodating and helpful, the location was good, price was great, and the rooms were so lovely! Great breakfast, too. The lobby area is stylish and comfortable.

Well located, good service, free gym pass and a quiet neighborhood with an adequate number of restaurants and stores. Can walk to central Oslo and any needed transit.

Family friendly hotel with good amenities and views. Clean rooms with good views and easier to access public transport

I had done quite some research until I finally booked the Saga Hotel in Oslo and couldn't have made a better choice. There a lots of Hotels in the Center of the Norwegian capital, however not many that individual and lovely as the Saga Hotel. It has been one of those offering a gym even though not in the Hotel premises itself but in external facilities nearby the hotel. As I had contacted the Hotel in advance to figure out whether any Gluten free bread was available (due to coeliac disease), I exceptionally even booked directly with them as the price was not higher than others. The room was clean, very charming and perfect regarding its size. Used the gym 4 Times during my 3 days as it is huge and offers amazing equipment. Finally, staff was outstanding and so was the breakfast, the best I have had during my 6.5 months travelling abroad (so far)... Best choice I could have done🙏 Thank you so much!

I loved this hotel! The staff was nice and friendly, the room very clean and comfy and the breakfast one of the best one could get! Besides, the hotel is situated in a very chic safe area and close to the center of the city by foot.

Great rooms and breakfast. Best part was the staff.

Review for Saga Hotel Apartments. I had no problems checking in at the hotel a few blocks away, as it was on the way from the train station to the apartment (Nationaltheater station, with Flytoget from the airport). Check out was also very easy, and I didn't need the reception during my stay. The apartment had everything I needed, it was equied with iron, an electric fan, and enough kitchen equipment. It also had a fire extinguisher in the room, great safety feature missing in many hotel rooms. The space was just enough for two people, and a nice detail with the 'screen' between bed and the rest of the apartment, so you could get a little privacy there. The TV was adjustable so you could either see it from the bed, the couch or the dining table. It had BBC News, DW News, and many Scandinavian channels. The apartment was very clean, and the cleaning standard was in the higher end compared to all the hotels Ive lived in. Bed was comfortable, not too soft, not too hard. The large pillows was perfect for sitting up in the bed reading or watching TV. The apartment had a nice little balcony. The apartment was on the northwest side of the building, and the sun was only there from late afternoon. If the weather had been better, I'm sure I could have enjoyed the balcony in the evening. The location was perfect for me, the neighbourhood was quiet, and stores and restaurants was only a short walk away. I didn't find any negative about this apartment, but one single thing. If you are just a tiny bit noise sentitive, especially if you need to go back to the apartment to recharge during the day, I cannot recommend this place. In the morning, from at least 7 am, and maybe a bit earlier, I could hear the sound of doors "slamming" (the heavy apartment doors closing), and general 'scrambling' of what I think was the cleaning personel. This is what would be expected in a hotel, although the sound of the doors was a bit to excessive. However, I was at the apartment to relax in the afternoon, and I heard constant sound of heels walking and chairs being draged around on hardwood floor all afternoon. At last I went onto the floor above mine to locate the sound, and two apartments in the same side of the build as my apartment, was open. On the door was logos of what appeared to be a Rental company. I don't know if they used the apartments as an office, or they had an 'open house' during the day, but the sound was very irritating. I ended up wearing noise cancelling earphones most of the afternoon to relax. I stayed for two nights, and the noise was pretty much the same on the second day.

Great hotel in a quiet neighborhood, very friendly and helpful staff, superb breakfast and well connected to Oslo city center.

This is a cozy, clean and beautiful hotel in a nice, quiet neighborhood. I loved the design and calm atmosphere. I choice this hotel because I needed a quiet place to sleep that wasn't too far from the city centre. The bed was super comfy and the only noise I could hear was an occasional car or tram passing by in a street nearby. The bus and tram stops were just a few minutes away, as was a nice street with many shops and café's. It took 12 minutes to get to the city centre by tram. The hotel windows could be opened to get a nice breeze in before bedtime, and the room held a comfortable temperature throughout the night. The hotel could benefit from offering more vegan foods for breakfast, such as scrambled tofu or plant based spreads, but they had some options. I will definitely come back!

We very much enjoyed our recent stay at the Saga Hotel. The location is perfect.. quiet, beautiful neighborhood yet a short walk to restaurants, parks and public transportation. The staff was helpful and informative, the breakfast was delicious and the room was comfortable. We would gladly stay here again!

We had a beautiful stay at the Saga Oslo, the rooms are very clean, staff is wonderful & helpful. The hotel is located fairly close walking distance to everything to do in the city of Oslo and located next to the gorgeous Royal Palace. No AC in the rooms but you can leave the big windows open and get in a great breeze.

An amazing hotel in Oslo. I was here for the first time with my wife for a long weekend - and Saga Hotel became our "go-to-place" for any future stay in Oslo. The hotel is very nice, spotlessly clean and with a town-house charm. The location is perfect: a little different, historical, up-market area just outside the city centre and the Royal Park. Easy and convenient walk to any spot in downtown area from the hotel. Quiet and cozy neighborhood with a few small supermarkets open 'till 23:00 (REMA) just around the corner. Amazing breakfast: fresh, tasty, great variety with local delicacies as well. On the National Day Breakfast Buffet (Syttende Mai) they even has small pavlovas on the sweet side !! You seldom get this top level of breakfast in smaller hotels. Personell is really nice, professional. You do feel welcome. Price level slightly lower than in the downtown hotels, which is an additional plus as Oslo is notoriously expensive,

This is a beautiful hotel in great location near parks, Sentrum and transportation. The room was spacious, the bed was very comfortable and the walls were soundproof. Breakfast was excellent.

Close to the palace, excellent breakfast, never had so much choice in my life. Confortable room, beautiful interior. I couldn't wish more. Oslo is a great place, it helps that the weather was good, although still chilly in the morning.

I can't say enough about the Saga Hotel. The hotel itself is lovely, and our room was clean and comfortable. But it was the staff that really made our stay memorable. They went out of their way to provide exceptional service. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Fabulous customer service, perfect accommodation, really good rates and amazing food. I can't recommend it highly enough. Thanks for a great stay.

My favorite hotell in Oslo! I always stay here, both for business and pleasure. Very good beds, beautifull rooms, late breakfest on the weekends, and the best staff. They also have a very nice bar!

Great hotel, clean and fresh! A little cold inside the room and a small selection at breakfast, but overall a good experience. Good location, would recommend :)

Great hotel in a good location for sight seeing. Staff were lovely. Hotel is warm comfortable, friendly and quiet. Breakfast was superb. We were staying for a family funeral so appreciated the calmness. Competitive cost wise as well. If visiting Oslo again, we would certainly return. Highly recommended.

This cozy boutique hotel is a short distance from downtown, nestled in a quiet residential neighborhood. It's easy to walk to restaurants, local shops, and a grocery store, with convenient access to local trams and transportation. We had a nice, large, quiet room overlooking the trees, with a comfortable king-sized bed. The breakfast was excellent, offering many options. I love the local, non-touristy feel of this hotel, so much better than the chain hotels!

We have stayed on Saga several times. 5 stars on every criteria except for the breakfast who deserves 3-4 stars in our book.. Best sleep ever on a hotel.

The plus: well located small hotel in a quiet street yet close to the center & harbour, comfy, spotless rooms albeit the standard doubles are small, especially the windowless bathroom with no space to put one's stuff. Bedding very good. Very good breakfast with daily variations. One appreciable amenity in Oslo is the free parking in front of the hotel (first come, first served). The average: value for money only average but it's uberexpensive Oslo… umbrellas to borrow, afternoon tea, all extra (all the more bizarre that there is free tea/coffee in the room). The bad: no real cosy area to relax when coming back from the city, friendly but amateur front desk, they do not know about restaurants, museums, parking in the city… All in all a good hotel when visiting Oslo, especially if you have/need a car to visit the surroundings, excellent sleep and great breakfast. Would be 5/5 if some small attentions were free and the staff more knowledgeable about Oslo.

Perfectly located in a quiet, calm living area. Within walking distance to Vigeland Sculpture Park which is amazing and breathtaking. Only a short walk away from several train stations, ideal location for exploring the City. Supermarkets, small shops all within walking distance. Clean room, unfortunately without aircon so it might get hot in there. Breakfast is amazing! Variety of everything, fresh fruit, local fish dishes, soy yoghurt, pastries etc. Very stylish breakfast room

Check in was easy with a very helpful person behind the counter. The room was clean and quite functional. The bathroom was typically small but workable. Make sure the shower doors are fully closed and the shower head pointed away from the doors; otherwise the floor will be soaked. Breakfast was pretty typical and filling. You can buy beer at the reception area. The staff people are very helpful with restaurants and bus schedules. Our room faced the street and was very quiet. We highly recommend this hotel.

A lovely smart hotel in a quiet neighbourhood near the city centre. We had auch a good night's sleep and lovely breakfast.

Perfect location in upmarket part of Oslo between Frogner park and the Royal Palace. Great value for money. Breakfast superb and hotel very clean/presentable. Staff knowledgeable and helpful. Room well equipped, but ours on ground floor not very big. Would highly recommended this hotel to all my friends.

This was a lovely hotel, in a beautiful residential area. Though it isn't in center city, it is very easy to walk downtown. The staff was fantastic! I recommend Saga Hotel.

Saga Oslo is a great place to stay: comfortable, quiet, friendly, and an easy walk to central Oslo (or to the tram). It was nice being in a neighborhood. Good restaurants close by. Easy to explore all parts of Oslo from there. Breakfast was top-notch. Would live to stay again.

Very nice, quiet hotel, located between a few minutes walk from Vigeland Park and the Royal Palace. Very nice breakfast, rooms. Minor downsides: not close to many restaurants or to public transportation (if you are carrying baggage), street parking. We have stayed between the Palace and Oslo Central Train Station, but there is more street noise in that area, making it more difficult to sleep. On the whole, I prefer the Saga Hotel.

A good clean quiet hotel with excellent breakfast and super friendly employees. The hotel is full of charm, but it is the employees who make it a wonderful place to stay.

This hotel is in a quiet, residential section of Oslo. It's about a 10-minute walk from the Royal Palace. The staff is really great. Emilia gave us great restaurant ideas and made sure we had bookings. Jostein was also very helpful. Don't let this location steer you away...it's a really nice hotel and isn't as far from the major sites as it appears!

Everything at the best. Great breakfast, silence and norvegian atmosphere. You can walk easily from hotel to the citycenter and the station

Beautiful boutique hotel with comfortable beds located in charming neighborhood. Breakfast was wonderful with an array of hot and cold foods. Highly recommend the pancakes, which somehow remain tender but crispy on the edges with blueberry jam, and the bacon. Wish the shower was a bigger and water pressure a bit harder, but it was a great stay and I recommend.

I am quite disappointed at the hotel's decision to charge me fully for 2 nights and 2 rooms when I called 3 hours later than the 24 hour cancellation policy ( due to a miscalculation in time difference) that I had paid extra for. I was told by the receptionist that they would certainly not charge the second night and they immediately put in back on the market to book the room to other clients. After the nights had passed, they informed me that they would actually be charging me for both nights, both rooms. I found this a bit backhanded and would not have cancelled the rooms if I had been told that I would be charged in full despite them being able to sell the rooms to different customers.

We stayed in a Saga apartment room during what was apparently a hot week by Norway standards. The room was on a higher floor and there is no air conditioning, so the sleeping conditions were awful. The windows don't open more than a crack so there was zero ventilation. The fan in the room's closet didn't work so we had to ask reception for a couple more fans. Even with the fans, though, we all slept with no sheets for the duration of the stay. Not ideal for our first few days in Norway! The breakfast food is good but the dining room is far too small and busy. Parking is VERY limited and if you don't snag a spot you have to pay for street parking. Note: If you book an apartment room, it's in a separate building that you have to walk about 5 minutes to from reception. We didn't feel like the apartment building felt like a hotel at all. Saga's location is decent, with easy access to central Oslo sights, tram stops, etc. But overall we felt like this was an overpriced hotel for a mediocre experience.

—Super lovely neighbourhood, great for summer evening walks to the parks; walking distance to Historisk Museum and Nationalmuseet; just near to a 7-11 and Rema 1000; few min walk to tram/bus lines. —Hotel staff very professional, friendly! —Breakfast setting and food quality is worth more than what they charge (acknowledging it is included with each booking). Staff will go above and beyond if you happen to depart early morning before the breakfast service begins. —Happened to stay during an intense heat wave. There is no air con but fans are provided and this combined with the cool evening air from the windows that open make for a comfortable temperature. —Mini bar in the room is super convenient and worth it when you realise that 7-11 doesn't sell beer/wine. —Rooms are clean, comfortable, don't worry. —Just stay here.

Wonderful hotel. EXCELLENT service, delicious breakfast, and nice rooms. Only minor complaints were 1) hot rooms without much ventilation on the top floor (it was during a heat wave) and poor wifi.

Really enjoyed our stay. The front desk staff were extremely helpful. The breakfast selection had plenty to offer. The rooms were clean. The hotel did not have air conditioning but to our surprise they had a fan in the room. So glad we picked this hotel. Would highly recommend and stay there again.

We had a wonderful stay. The superior room was large and comfortable. The bedding was very comfortable and the bed a good firmness. Room was a bit warm. No AC. But windows can be opened. The bathroom was large, but the shower a bit small. The breakfast was large and varied. The neighborhood was very nice.

Excellent location in a lovely suburb which is home to the prime minister and a number of Embassies. Just a short walk to parks, the Royal Palace and easy distance to central Oslo. There is also a near by light rail, cafes and restaurants. The hotel is quiet and the room comfortable and a reasonable size. Only down side was the flat soft pillow. Staff were very nice and helpful.

My daughter and I were very comfortable in Saga hotel. The room was clean, quiet, and well equipped. The staff were friendly and polite and the breakfasts were wonderful. I loved the interior decor and the location was fabulous: close to green spaces as well as great cafes and restaurants. I highly recommend.

Bedrooms were quiet and comfortable. Pillows squishy. Bathroom was great and good water pressure in the shower. Great breakfast. Location is brilliant. Leafy suburb thats 15 mins walk from palace. Tram ride to central station and then airport. Great local restaurants or head in central oslo. Staff very friendly. Highly recommended. Oslo wonderful city worth a good trek round.

This is the BEST hotel in Oslo. It is close to everything, but in a quiet part of the city. We spent four weeks in Denmark and Norway, stayed at some fancy hotels (including the famous Grand Hotel Oslo), but enjoyed this place the most. The rooms are spacious and the staff is so friendly and helpful. They recommended some great neighborhood restaurants, explained how to get a transportation/museum pass, and arranged for our transportation to the airport in a vehicle large enough to carry our two large bicycle boxes and two pieces of luggage. They also referred me to a place where I could get a massage and helped me book the appointment online (everything on the website was in Norwegian). The hotel is very clean and the breakfast bar is varied and delicious. There was no street noise keeping us awake at night. The rates were a bargain. If I ever go back to Oslo, this is the place I would stay. Don't forget your eyeshades if you visit in the summer!

A beautifully appointed hotel in an area of stunning parks and embassies. Very similar to Woollahra in Sydney. Tram to cbd is easy. The included breakfast is the best we have enjoyed in three weeks. The bar area and seating on street were a lovely touch. Our king room was quite small as the bathroom area was generous. For two people it would be very cozy for more than 2 nights. Overall a great hotel. Thank you.

Excellent boutique hotel in a quiet beautiful neighborhood near the palace and close to the 19 tram and 30 bus routes. Nicely updated room and very clean bathroom. Hardy breakfast with high quality food. Helpful staff. Absolutely would stay here again.

Excellent hotel in a lovely quiet area but only 5 minutes from tram on the main road or 30 mins if walking into the city which we did and get the tram back, friendly reception staff and breakfast was amazing with so much choice,Rooms were clean and tidy with everything you need, this will be our first choice hotel when we come back again.

The location is very good, rooms are spacious and very clean. Excellent assistance from the staff, friendly welcoming atmosphere. Excellent breakfast. The hotel has a good atmosphere and is relatively close to shops and restaurants. Would recommend the hotel.

Extremely comfortable room, spotlessly clean. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Very good breakfast. The hotel is located in a quiet neighbourhood in Oslo, but it is easily accessible from the city centre by foot, or on public transport. Really like this hotel and will certainly return next time I am in Oslo.

Booked this hotel as it was part of the Best Western group. We stayed in the main hotel. Reception, house keeping and breakfast staff were all friendly and helpful. Room was spacious, quiet, clean and comfortable. Bathroom was very spacious, although I felt the layout / design could have been better. The corner shower cubicle leaked water out (at the bottom of the doors) despite every attempt to close the double doors in various ways. Also, the drainage for the shower was directly under the overhead shower head, which meant having to either stand on the drain or feet around it, (neither of which were that comfortable). Nice toiletries : hand/body wash, hair/body wash and hair conditioner. The bed was unusual. It was a (3") mattress topper over a mattress which was built into the bed base. It was soft, but comfy and unlikely suitable for those sleepers who require a really firm mattress. There was a mini-bar/fridge (useful for keeping things cool). Nice Nespresso coffee pod machine. I requested a kettle, which was provided. There is no safe in the room. TV with Sky News and 1-2 English speaking programmes. Nice that the window could be opened for some fresh air. Breakfast choice was good. There was enough variety (hot and cold foods) to suit all tastes. The seating area was in the 'basement' floor so there wasn't much natural light coming in and also because the decor was quite dark. The only negative I have is the decor of the room. It was just a bit too dark. All the light shades were black, including the bedside ones, which really didn't give off enough light when reading (despite there being a separate mini light). There also wasn't a desk light which anyone needing to work may have needed. Location is good, albieit not in the centre of things, but walkable (30 to 40 minutes) to most of the main attractions. Overall a nice comfortable stay.

A wonderful hotel in a great location. It's immaculately clean and all of the staff are wonderfully welcoming. We enjoyed an absolutely faultless 3 night stay. The breakfast was delicious and our room was comfortable. Will definitely be back!

The hotel is nice and everything was pretty. My only issue was that the WiFi was weak which made it very difficult to check work emails on my phone etc. However, if you're there only for leisure, the hotel is great. It's easy to order a taxi from there back to the airport as well. The hotel is walking distance from a nice park and shops and food.

Possible the best hotel I've ever stayed in. It was quiet, clean, friendly and had the best breakfast buffet I've ever encountered. It was easy and quick to hop on a tram to the city centre. It couldn't have been better for me as a solo traveller.

I picked this hotel because it was the closest to where I had a meeting, but I lucked out - this place was just right: Comfortable, and with a lovely breakfast with a variety of offerings. (I saw a child carrying a plate of just meatballs and chocolate cereal - live your best life, little one!) Lovely staff, too.

Not exactly in the middle of "old Christiania" and downtown hustle and bustle. But fairly close to most things you want to see and do as a tourist and/or occasional visitor. Saga resides in Uranienborg, near the Uranienborg church, a bit up-hill from down town and in a primarily residential area. The Royal Castle Park is about a 5 minute walk away. And down town center another 5-10 minutes by foot. If you not fancy walking the tram and bus network is extensive in Oslo. No problem getting around. Usually I'm not so fond of "boutique" hotels, but Saga is in no way overdriven with peculiar decorations, weird interior or strange mishaps supposed to be "cool". It's elegant. It's quiet. It's relaxing. The official three star classification (if I got i right), is in my opinion clearly four stars. Slick public areas with reception/lounge made for gathering or casual meetings. Rooms very fine. We had an airy corner room where there was plenty of light. Bathroom of high standard. Mini bar (expensive of course - this is Norway) and fully satisfactory amenities. Not many hotel beds you can remember sleeping exceptionally well in - can you? Well, Saga's beds will remain in my memory. Extremely comfortable! Lovely pillows. Best sleep in a hotel I've had for years. Truly. And it is sooo quiet! Breakfast is downstairs in the basement. A bit gloomy environment, but that is well compensated for by the very good breakfast presented. Small scale and well maintained. A lot of choices. None will leave hungry. Staff kind and attentive. By Norwegian monetary standards, Saga is affordable. Highly recommended!

Beautiful hotel with high quality furnishing and amenities. Bed was excellent. Absolutely excellent breakfast with a wide selection of delicious food - many fresh made items. Helpful staff. A short walk to shopping and restaurants. A gem.

This is a great hotel, and VERY much so for the value. It's in a quite area, but close to so much. It's an easy walk to just about anything. The rooms are comfortable and very well kept. The best thing is the breakfast. Really good food and choices. We'll definitely keep this place in mind if we return to Oslo...which I hope we do.

This hotel should win an award for the friendliest and most helpful team sprinkled with a sense of humour. My urgent request for a taxi to the Munch Museum was met with the news that the museum was closed for the week (it wasn't). That made me chuckle. Rooms are nice and modern and the location is fabulous, just behind the Palace and also home to some wonderful real estate including a number of consulates.

It is located in a nice quiet area of Oslo just outside the Nasjonaltheatret district. Within walking distance of a lot of the local tourist attractions. The family room (apartment) we stayed in had two bathrooms which is very convenient if you have people doing skin care routines. Nespresso machines are very much appreciated. Luggage storage is available and very much appreciated since we arrived in the morning.

We did our home work and it paid off. Found this lovely hotel in a quiet suburb of Oslo. Not far from the centre of town number 11 tram a couple of stops. Staff so kind , the rooms spotless and so quiet and the breakfast delicious. We were given restaurant recommendations and information about Oslo. I highly recommend this hotel.

Loverly small Hotel - Very friendly Service - Always just happy to help. OLD FASHION CUSTOMER SERVICE is just normal for the staff at this hotel. Its a little walk outside of town, 15 Mins walk or a 5min scooter/bike ride. This is good value for an expensive city, room are not large but reasonable, and clean. breakfast does not have many options, however will fill you up.

I stayed with my husband and 1 year old daughter in a junior suite. The hotel is very nice, very well decorated, and in good condition. It's in a residential area so it was very quiet. Location was very good! Oslo is rather small and you everything is a walkable distance. Public transportation works perfectly and it's very easy to use with the app. We arrived earlier than the check in time and we had to wait for the room. It was available earlier than expected though. We arrived by car and there was parking slots available, however there are few (it also has a charging station available for 2 cars). We used the car and when we came back there were not more slots, we parked around the corner and payed using an app. There is a small staircase to get into the hotel, no ramp. Inside the hotel there's elevator. The room was spacious, the crib we requested was already there. There's a mini bar and nespresso machine available. There's a wardrobe and a sofa. Bathroom was also spacious. Breakfast was included. It was varied and it offered hot and cold meals. Some Norwegian specialties like brown cheese. They also had a high chair for babies available. Hotel staff were all very nice, welcoming and efficient. Overall it was a great experience.

Beautiful, small hotel in a quiet, nice residential area within close walking distance to some very good restaurants, grocery and liquor store, and tram stops. Very clean room. Windows were well made and could be opened for fresh air, and they shut out any outdoor noise (we stayed during the May 17 Constitution Day celebration and although there was some music from neighboring homes we didn't hear it once windows were closed). Very comfortable mattress- no sagging and not too hard. Staff were very friendly and well-trained, with good recommendations when we asked. Shower doors closed tight and kept water from running out on rest of floor. The variety and quality of breakfast foods and coffee were outstanding. Europeans and Scandinavians know how to put out a great breakfast!

I just stayed here for a week in April. The hotel is in a great location. Tons of restaurants and very convenient for public transportation. It is very close to the tourist area also. The room is like an apartment. You get a kitchen with everything you need including a full size refrigerator and microwave. There are many grocery stores nearby. Such as Bunn Pris and REMA 1000. Please be aware that this hotel Does Not serve breakfast. That's not a problem as you can easily make your own whenever you want!

I would recommend this hotel, the superior room was spaciuous, very clean and there was not any noise. Great and helpful people, amazing beds, a lovely hotel….Good breakfast. Excellent location, you can walk to the center. I hope to come back soon.

This is a lovely hotel to stay in Oslo. Slightly outside the centre but a nice walk through a safe area. Also very close to trams if you prefer. Very helpful and welcoming staff. Amazing breakfast, lots of lovely choice and some different items daily. Room was good size, well appointed and clean. Ensuite shower cubicle was small, but was the only downside. Very nice takeaway breakfast provided for early departure too.

Lovely hotel in a gracious neighborhood. Easy for walkers to walk to Karl Johan restaurants and shop. Also convenient to the wonderful buses. Breakfast was plentiful and gracious. Best of all, Marius and his staff went out of their way to be helpful, making suggestions and reservations, advising on transportation and being all-around pleasant and friendly. Now - dear Saga Hotel - please consider adding some hooks and shelves in the bathroom and why is the soap dispenser a foot from the sink so the soap drips all over? And, a hotel of your quality really should offer amenities like special lotion and conditioner and shampoo and the like. The all-purpose 'wash' in the shower is something I'd expect in a much lesser quality hotel. And please please put cream in the minibar for the use of us foolish Americans who cannot drink coffee, even from the sweet little pod coffee maker in the room, without it. And a half bottle of wine that cost less than $34 would be a wonderful surprise. Overall, however, we really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend the Saga.

If you want the feel of an Oslo neighborhood, then this is a great hotel. It is somewhat close to the University of Oslo, and a lot of students live in the neighborhood which gives it a lively feel, but also not overly touristic feel. It is a European hotel which means that the beds are made with bottom sheet and duvet cover (something I like) and most of the fellow travelers are not American (something I also like). The front desk was very helpful in buying the Oslo pass & the breakfast has a lot of what Norwegians eat for breakfast.

I stayed for several days, and I received a first floor room next to the elevator, and next to the reception area and the bar. It was very difficult to sleep at night because they kept playing ambiance music, and other guests sitting in the lobby were quite load. The idea of a bar on the back of the reception desk is ill fated for such a small place. The manager was not accommodating, and they did not want to close the door leading to the rooms. They offered me an alternative room on the upper floors which looked like reconverted attic. The so-called courtyard is a horrible patio overlooking under apartment buildings. The hotel is a regular BW hotel but overpriced. The professional pictures are quite deceiving. The hotel is not as nice as it looks. The breakfast takes place in claustrophobic basement. I don't understand why they decided to open a bar when clearly there is not enough space and the first floor rooms are quite close. I would not come back to this hotel due to the noisy room, and unfriendly staff. It is really overpriced for the quality of the rooms, the thin mattress, and the poor upkeep of the place. It is not a luxury hotel.

Great hotel, staff is amazing. Breakfast was great .. so much variety. Close to stores and restaurants, quiet at night. I stayed for 6 nights, it was partial business, partial leisure. You don't really have to stay in the busy area of Oslo, everything was walking distance. Close to the Royal Palace, Vigeland Park and other popular places.

Its a very good and peaceful place. I enjoyed the breakfast as well. Very helpful staff. You can walk for 35 min from Oslo Central station and enjoy great views of national theater and of course the Palace and the garden.

My husband and I just took an epic Scandinavian vacation. It started in Oslo, and though we had been there once before, I decided I wanted to try a different hotel in another part of town. We chose the Saga Hotel Oslo. We were warmly greeted on an unusually warm Oslo evening, and given a corner room on the third floor. The room was big enough, but it lacked air conditioning. Most of the time in Oslo, this is not a big deal. However, it would have been useful to have it during our two night stay, as it was pretty warm when we visited. We had to choose between leaving the window open at night for cool air flow and listening to the partying neighbors across the street, or closing the window for quiet, but sweating a bit. We ended up closing the window and opening it in the wee hours of the morning. The staff was pleasant and helpful, and we enjoyed the one breakfast we had. I especially liked the carrot cake at breakfast. It was delicious. The bathroom was very small and quite basic, with shower doors that collapse into the shower stall and only a communal toiletry mounted on the wall-- combo shower gel and shampoo. But the hotel offers easy cab orders and laundry service, and there is even a bar area in the lobby. The hotel is in a residential area, but there are also restaurants and shops nearby. We were able to walk to Akers Brygge with no problems. All in all, it was a pretty good stay. But if I visited again, I would go when the weather is cooler.

The Saga was the perfect choice for our visit to Oslo. Our room was comfortable, clean, attractive,and quiet. The hotel staff was very nice and helpful. Breakfast is included and is wonderful. Perhaps the best thing about the Saga is the location. It is in a much calmer setting than the city center, but easily accessible to everything. We walked to most places. It is a two block walk to access Oslo's fantastic transit system. Great connection to local attractions and the airport.

The hotel is clean and in a quiet neighbourhood. It's about a 10-12 minute walk from the centre so not long. It's within easy reach of shops and restaurants. Great breakfast and very friendly staff. I would stay again and definitely recommend.

Me, my husband and our two year old stayed at this hotel and I would gladly recommend it for anybody. The junior suite was really spacious so it was a perfect place for our son to play, as well for us adults to relax. :) Great and helpful staff, amazing beds, beautiful interior and a very nice breakfast! We are going to stay here anytime we are in Oslo and in need of a hotel. :)

Lovely hotel. I enjoyed my stay there. Night person on check out was really friendly and helpful Room and hotel was clean Breakfast was also nice and lots of choices to choose from I would definitely recommend this hotel

Great location. Easy to walk to the Royal Palace, Bogstadveien shopping area, Vigeland Park. Only challenging thing was the icy roads. Breakfast was excellent! Our most memorable memory from your hotel is a Ms Guro, one of your reception staff. She is very warm and friendly. Always greeted us with a cheery smile and helpful with my questions about places to go. She is an asset to your hotel.

As a former frequent business traveler I`ve seen and stayed at all different hotels and concept in Norway. Saga is by far the most enjoyable one. Both the hotel and apartments are extremely modern and has a very cozy wibe to them. The location is absolutely outstanding, there are parking slots which is seldom to come by in Oslo. The neighbourhood is as quiet as a rural community, subway to every direction is a 10 min walk down probably Oslo S most beautiful street. The castle, the marina Aker brygge, Karl johan (shopping street), Holmenkollen, Frognerparken (sculpture park) and aqualand in the summer are all typical places to visit when traveling to Oslo, and from SAGA everything is within walking distance.

As others noted, this hotel is in a neighborhood and not centrally located. One would think this would mean it was quiet...it was not. There was still plenty of traffic noise from the streets below, despite being on the top (4th) floor of the hotel. You can access the city centre via trams and a decent walk up some hills, cumbersome with luggage. Check-in was fine. My Best Western rewards membership nor Platinum status was never recognized once during the stay...it is almost like this hotel isn't affiliated with the chain at all. I was assigned a room at the top floor, which was a loft. I had to bend over most of the time in the hotel room as it was a "loft" with very low ceilings. The room was just a single bed, which I booked...no upgrade whatsoever despite my status. The bed was like one would give a kid, and was tough to sleep on for this 6 feet plus American. The temperature control in the room was on a knob on the radiator...no AC. You could open the (one) window in the room, which was nice, but then really could hear the neighboring street noise below. The floors were wooden. The shower was the traditional European hose style shower. There were NO AMENITIES in the bathroom, other than one dispenser that pumps "shampoo/body wash" all in one. No lotion, no conditioner, nothing. The breakfast spread was nice, but you eat in a bunker in the basement of the hotel. There was, simply put, nothing "premier collection" about this hotel. Avoid at all costs.

Lovely hotel in a neighborhood location. Very easy to walk downtown and to nearby supermarkets and restaurants. Clean large rooms with nice breakfast buffet. Historic property so there can be some noise between floors and adjacent rooms.

Enjoyed our 2 night stay at this hotel, interesting location outside the central area but easy to travel about on the tram or train. Comfortable room, great beds and pillows, very clean. Lovely breakfast, lots of choice.

Location, location, location! This delightful boutique hotel in the beautiful, upscale , quiet Frogen neighborhood was one of the highlights of our stay in Oslo. The hotel staff was very helpful; the room was clean with a comfortable bed; and the breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Oslo is such a walkable city , so we were able to walk to everything we wanted to do and see even though we were not in central Oslo.

I had a very positive experience staying at Saga Hotel. Service and the staff was very helpful, clean and nice rooms, good breakfast buffet and the location is perfect close to Bogstadveien, but still in a quiet street. I will definitely stay here the next time I visit Oslo!

Everything was great. I arrived early as I had morning flight, asked if I could work from the lobby. To my surprise the receptionist told me that I can check in immediately. The room was cozy, spotlessly clean and for me the highlight is underfloor heating in the bathroom. Very good choice for breakfast buffet, the hot food was different each day. Since we had to leave hotel early in the morning we were offered packed breakfast to take away. Location of the hotel is great within 15 minutes walk you can reach Oslo center ( National Theatre station having trains to/from the airport and all the metro lines, a few trams and busses), Royal Palace and Vigeland Park. The nearest tram (number 11) is less than 5 minutes walk from the hotel. There are plenty of pubs and restaurants within 10-15 minutes walk from the hotel. I'm happy to recommend the hotel, and from now on it's my first choice in Oslo.

We had a wonderful stay here. Lovely, cosy room with really comfortable bed. Welcoming and helpful staff. Excellent breakfast with something for everyone. Great location with free parking included. We would definitely stay here again next time we are in Oslo!

We were in a pinch and needed a room due to change in travel plans. Many hotels booked and over priced. Reached into my Best Western app and made reservations. Contacted hotel and they helped with us get additional days needed.

Check out these two photos of our room. Entering the room was was an amazing experience to see the rose petals on our bed (No we're not on honeymoon - have been married a long time!!!!) so this was a lovely lovey touch. Room is spacious, clean and coffee machine works superbly. Staff on reception friendly and very helpful. Quiet with off-street parking. Highly recommended

The hotel was clean and calm, perfect for us with kids. One from the reception staff were especially helpful, he answered all our questions and showed us evertything we needed! All of the hotell staff were friendly, helpful and kind. Great location near the castle. We stayed at both Saga hotel Oslo and the Saga hotel apartments and the apartmens were also clean and nice snd with a good location. We would strongly recommend these hotels.

+ The hotel is situated between the Kings castle and Vigelands/Frognerparken in quiet surroundings. Fairly clean room. - Fell asleep to party music, woke up to some noisy sex. There seems to be really bad sound isolation. Tried to turn on the TV, but it didn't work. Bed was very cheap and uncomfortable. I was supposed to have a double bed with a view, but it was a single bed (1,20m though) in a tiny room with a view into the narrow backyard, right on the delivery entrance and a security camera in front of the small window. Bad lighting and the small window made the room very dark. Impossible to read or write at the desk. The breakfast delivered to my room was what you usually expect on an airplane, with the cheese on the tiny sandwich already hard around the edges. I got charged 150NOK more than the booking price, without any explanation. Toilet and sink are very close, water temperature in the shower varies. Room temperature more on the chilly side (and I'm from arctic Norway). Sadly the worst hotel experience I've had so far, and I travel a lot.

stayed in a hostel type room, was great ,clean bed clean shower with power points next to the bed etc , close to town centre , friendly staff and good value for money , trip advisor making me do the 200 character thing again

Nice and clean hotel in a really nice part of town. Coffee shops and restaurants nearby. I could easily stroll to a nice tapas bar just 5 minutes away. Shops were also just around the corner and communication by public transport made my business trip super efficient. A big minus for me that the breakfast was served from 07:00 as I usually try to maximize my workdays while traveling in business.

Welcoming staff interested about your stay. The hotel is beautiful. Stunning. So well designed - everything - it's really one of the most beautiful hotels I've been to. All staff were polite, helpful, attentive and friendly.
