This hotel was very comfortable. When we arrived they said there was an afternoon supper included with our rooms (in addition to the included breakfast buffet in the morning). The meal included soup, bread and a variety of salads which was nice for those who were hungry after travelling and also because food and everything else is very expensive in... More

This was our second stay at this hotel and the facilities are good. The room rate sometimes includes a buffet evening meal - worth checking before you go. We chose this hotel because of it's quiet location but unfortunately the road and pavement just outside the hotel had roadworks, which started at 7.30am each morning! We think it would have... More

Thanks for your time and efforts to have written the review. The road work in front of the hotel was planned by Oslo commune for the summer and it was unfortunately above our efforts to prevent it. I am sorry if it has occurred inconveniences for some of our guests. The evening buffet is ALWAYS offered every evening between 6-9... More

The room was large (at the back and side) and had great views of the gardens next door. The location was brilliant, set amongst lovely apartments and embassies. The breakfast was excellent with a wide choice, and the light evening meal was even better than I expected. Given the cost of eating out in Oslo, this is a real selling... More

Thank you very much for your nice review and for sharing it with us. As noted the light evening meal is a concept that offers the guests a nice treat and some food after a long day, but it by no means claims to be a real dinner or gourmet food offer. We will be looking forward to your next... More

Stylish, bright and comfortable rooms, with a peephole to the bathroom... An elegant mix of the old and new in the hotel - traditional exterior leading to Scandinavian eclectic interior. We loved the extra snack that was laid out when you came back from a day out. Great value, and the only real neg I can think of is its... More

Very good neighbourhood, near tramway and even walking distance to the centre. Especially enjoyed the free do it yourself waffles and coffee/tea in the afternoon and the tables/chairs in the little garden. The included dinner buffet is also very convenient. More

Thanks for the feedback. Hello. The waffles are really very popular among our guests, so we are glad they make such a great atmosphere at the hotel by their wonderful smell and great taste:-). The light evening meal is also appreciated by many guests and even considered as dinner alternative for some of them. It was nice to hear you... More

I stayed here for 8 nights and I was pretty pleased--I'd stay here again. It looks more like a design hotel than part of a chain, which is nice, and my single room was still a pretty good size. They have a good breakfast and dinner buffet with hours you can easily work with (no scrambling to get down there... More

Although pleasantly located in a residential neighborhood a short trolly ride from the center, this hotel is at best equivalent to a modest American motel. Mediocre in virtually every respect, it is shabbily furnished and understaffed. During our three day stay we never saw the same individual at the front desk twice; often no one was there at all. Yet... More

Hi. I must strongly disagree with you regarding the "shabby" style of the hotel... The hotel has a unique atmosphere styled and furnished in a very tasteful and elegant way to create a cozy atmosphere yet being very stylish. Well, after all it is still a matter of personal taste though... It is sad to hear that you didn't see... More

This must be the best hotel in Oslo if you like staying in a nice part of town near the park with easy access to town. Its quiet, comfortable and friendly and the food is great. We really enjoyed it here. Bathrooms are too small and need updating but functioned ok (once you get used to being in a bathroom... More

Gabelshus is Oslo's top hotel address for my husband and me. We had a most wonderful stay there in early December. The house itself is a little jewel in a great neighbourhood. Inside the hotel is very cosy, yet elegant and stylish. We were given a cosy maisonette room in the old building and liked it very much. Staff and... More
