I did read the reviews before booking 5 nights at the Villa Frogner in Oslo and I made sure to communicate with the owners before hand that I was not a Norwegian speaker. I also mentioned that I had been to Oslo before (wouldn't be expecting directions etc.) and was willing to pay cash as needed. There are two older... More

OK - I DEFINITELY should have read Tripadvisor before booking this place! Unfortunately I didn't know about it, but just went by the website which though simple, looked appealing. It had no link giving reviews from guests, and I honestly did not expect negative reviews from what I saw on the site. Don't be fooled by the website!!! I should... More

We had a nice stay at the Villa Frogner, but I'm not sure that I'm comfortable giving it an enthusiastic recommendation to other travelers. Owner/manager Andreas is a sweet, goofy and absent-minded host--friendly, but not tremendously helpful. We asked him for advice on what to see in Oslo, and he pulled out a map to show us various sights--and after... More

Ive never written a review before good or bad but feel I should warn people from staying here. We arrived and found our key lying on a desk in the hallway in an envelope with our room number and name at 4pm, no sign of any staff. The room was clean but very small with an even smaller shower room... More

Me and my boyfriend have visited Oslo severel times, and lived at our friends house. But this time we was thinking about living for our selves this weekend, nice and quietly, and also not so expensive. When I entered the website, there was prices and phone number to call villa frogner, and a booking email, that I was filling out... More

The city of Oslo is wonderful, there are great things to see and do there. Don't spoil it by staying at this so called bed and breakfast. The rooms were not taken care of, the shower curtains were moldy, the floors were not clean and the entire place could use a complete remodeling. Besides being a firetrap electrically, the staff...

We've arrived at Villa Frogner by Taxi. We got our key after we have payed the amount for the 2 overnights. Unfortunately we did not stay in the Villa itself - we had to walk down to the Frogner Apartments which also belongs to them. The Apartment is okay - the facilities have been standard. The room was good and... More

I cannot come close to recommending this place. This was the worst hotel experience I've ever had in 40 years. This is also the first "terrible" rating I've given a hotel, but they certainly worked to earn such a distinction. My first impression on my room was that it was a bit tired looking. The wallpaper was peeling from every... More

This is a small, friendly, quiet and family run 4 bedroom (all with en suite and TV) B&B in the best area of town. A very short walk from the main entrance to the Vigelandspark (well worth a visit) - where bus and trams stop - it is also just a 500 m walk from the terminus of one of... More
