Woke up in the middle of the night surrounded by bed bugs. The gentleman working the counter at night was helpful and switched us to a better room. We wanted to leave but where would we go at 0300?? The new room was ok, but not clean. There were a pair of dirty socks near the door. Under the bottom... more

We are fortunate!!! that we visited this hotel for only one night but were lucky enough to be there for the bedbugs convention night. The room itself was very basic although we were lucky enough to have an ensuite bathroom ,which was very small but damp with old fittings. The single beds were vey narrow and were end on end... more

I have stayed at City Hotel twice and found it to be very good value, especially as it is in Oslo, one of the most expensive capitals in the world! The first time (in 2002) we stayed for a week in a very large ensuite double room. The breakfast was very good. We were a little confused by the lift... more

I was a bit disappointed with the City Hotel. When I read the reviews, I was very encouraged - I was only staying one night, and I typically try to book an inexpensive hotel (* or **) near the central train station. These neighborhoods are often not the best, but that does not bother me. From a location perspective, the... more

I stayed at this hotel off-season, so that might be why there were not any problems with noise. The rooms are undeniably a bit shabby, but there are not too many other central hotels in Oslo for this price. I found the staff unfailingly helpful, the security good, and the breakfast nice enough. Unfortunately this hotel is in a red-light... more

We were staying in Oslo for one night only, catching an early train. The hotel was reasonable enough for our requirements - it was very close to the train station, and also to the main city centre. It was also cheap - about £80 for an en suite room. Bad points were: - twin rooms only, no doubles - room... more

This was very close to the worst hotel my wife and I have ever stayed at. There were prostitutes on the corner outside the hotel all night, lots of bikers in bars and lots of very loud and very drunk people all night. The desk clerk told us not to go right when we left their camera and security system... more

The City Hotel AS is in a great location, only 5 minutes walk to the train and bus stations. Some of the comments on the hotel regarding the neighbourhood are untrue in my opinion, and didnt witness any evidance that the hotel is near or in a red light district. You have to remember when booking this hotel that you... more

Spent 4 nights in Oslo at the City Hotel. Small local and easy to find. Within walking distance of the Central Station where the train or bus from the airport drops you. One block off the main pedestrian shopping street - an excellent location. Elevator to the third floor (where hotel located) and locked front door with 24 hr access.... more

The City Hotel is basic and cheap by Oslo standards. The breakfast (which is extra) is pretty good. The staff is nice and they offer internet access at the hotel for a reasonable price. The location is convenient for the train station. The hotel has excellent security. The neighborhood is nasty. We didn't feel like we were ever in danger... more
