Leinastranda

We loved this Hotel. It is not for you if you are looking for fancy or even 3 star amenitues but the soft spring coil mattress with foam topper was comfortable. The duvet and pillows were excellent. The staff were welcoming and helpful, the atmosphere is hip and the whole place is geared toward longer stays. And the location is perfect. 15 min walk to the oslofjord(waterfront) and closer to other key sites. Very walkable area of the city. They are working hard at environmental sustainability. The back side of the hotel has a view of the city but it is in the centre of the Oslo nightclub scene so weekends are noisy if your window is open. However you really feel part of the energy of the city.

The location of the hotel is great. However, there is no on-site restaurant for breakfast. The breakfast purchased through Bob’s is actually a food voucher that can be used at two nearby restaurants. You may be better off finding a nearby bakery for breakfast yourself, which would give you more flexibility.

This was a great find. Great value for money and had everything we needed. Spotlessly clean with a fully equipped kitchen, spacious living area. Bathroom was a nice size and also spotlessly clean. Bed was extremely comfortable. Check in was pretty simple and the staff member we met, who was cleaning at the time, was super friendly. There is a bakery next door which was convenient, we just had coffee and pastries, a supermarket across the road and plenty of restaurants, cafes and bars within easy walking distance. I would highly recommend this place, we would definitely stay here again.
