Renovations are ongoing but not in any way disruptive. A no-frills but overall clean and good value option, convenient to city centre. Five minutes walk north to Grunerlokka for funky bars and restaurants.

The accommation was quite basic & we didn't really encounter many staff, but if any friends wanted a single night from which to explore Oslo then it was fine. It was more than walking distance from the railway station so we had to find out how to use the local transport system very quickly.

The water front area was very pleasant & we enjoyed our visit to the Viking & folk museum. Local transport was excellent.

Not the most attractive hotel, but don't let it deceive you. It was SO reasonably priced compared to most of the hotels in the centre of the city. Quieter rooms on the back of the hotel were ideal.15 of us stayed here as a wedding party. Most of us were put on same floor rooms with no bother. Most accomodating for a 13mth old child. Well within a pleasant walking distance of the city. Vast number of frequent trams are available from outside the hotel. One unfortunate thing against the location of the Anker Hotel is the large number of undesirables who congregate along the river nearby and on to the roadside late at night. Some single travllers may not feel safe. We would, however, stay at this hotel again.

Good location, 10 minutes from central station and easy for Karl Johans street. Not the nicest area, but we never felt threated. Oslo is very expensive, and this is good value fora quality clean hotel. If you want cheaper or a hotel outside the central area then then you'll have to settle for a hostel and a geusthouse in the suburbs!

'Ett Glass', just off karls johans gate, near TGI's, does fantastic food at a fraction of the price of nearby establishments! Highly recommended!

The hotel rooms were very nice. Larger rooms than most. The free breakfast was excellent, ample choices. The one thing they lack is air conditioning. It was very hot when we were there so even a fan would be nice. The staff was very good, attentive and helpful.

A must see is the Munch museum. It is within walking distance to the hotel. A quaint cafe called "Sara's Place" is just a couple blocks out the back door. Great food, I recomend the greek salad and rasberry ice cream dessert.

Good location for train station. Clean room. For one night just fine but not for a longer stay as quite basic. The area is not that nice - beggars etc. Go elsewhere to eat and drink.
