Scandinavian design doesn't end with Sweden and Copenhagen, as Oslo's new hotel illustrates. But it provides something more: the cosmopolitan experience of London and New York, in the far northern latitudes of Norway. In the middle of town, minutes from Akershus Castle, Karl Johans Gate and Akers Brygge, this city hotel is a lifestyle experiment mixing modernist design with a groundbreaking nightclub, international fusion cooking and a rooftop lounge. The air-conditioned establishment offers 66 rooms in total and welcomes its guests in a lobby with 24-hour reception and check-out services, a hotel safe, cloakroom and lift access to the upper floors. Guests may wine and dine in the café, bar and restaurant, and room and laundry services are offered.
The hotel is beautifully situated by Akershus Castle in the historical and most urban part of the Norwegian capital, only three blocks from Karl Johans Gate, five minutes from the central station (the Airport Express Train takes 20 minutes) and three minutes from Aker Brygge.
