I have nothing negative to say about this hotel. Nice rooms for a good price. The breakfast is an important part about the hotel and this hotel feeds it´s guests in the adjacent restaurant. The restaurant has great food for your evening needs as well if you don't feel like leaving the building. They did an excellent job and I... More

Stayed here twice during trip to Norway in March 2013. Good location tight by Oslo Railway Station and entry is by undercover shopping mall which is great to avoid bitterly cold weather. The staff are pleasant and everyone speaks good English (as does just about everyone in Norway). Double accommodation was okay but rooms are a bit small and manouverability... More

I stayed in Scandic Byporten in March 2013 for 15 nights. The stay was really comfortable and cosy and the hotel is just a stone throw distance from Oslo Central station. The hotel can be reached without coming out of the Oslo Central station as well. The biggest advantage is the hotel is located inside the Byporten shopping mall and... More

The best feature of this hotel is how close it is to Oslo Central Station. Turn right out of the North exit and it is just a two minute walk, which means that it is no more than a 40 minute journey from leaving the arrivals hall at Oslo Airport. It also means you can leave baggage at the hotel,... More

A hotel embeded in a shopping centre/train station. Functional but rooms where very small, bathroom was dated, breakfast outside the hotel , bar in the reception! and not great value for money in my opinion. So it is very well located, so if what you want is location go there, otherwise it is worth looking somewhere else

We booked a superior twin room at this hotel for a little over £110 per night. The room was very spacious with a massive bathroom. It was comfortable although it appeared rather spartan and under lit when we arrived. The lighting improved with time and we soon got used to the Scandinavian style of design. The staff were very helpful... More

We stayed one night at this hotel. It is without comparison the most expensive and at the same time smallest Scandic room we ever stayed in !!!! The hotel is situated in the absolute city centre of Oslo, but it was a very expensive stay - to park the car for 16 hours cost 300 NOK !!!
