Scandic St. Olavs plass

There are many Scandic hotels in Oslo, this one is a little older but is just on the edge of the city centre and easily walkable. Access by the train or airport shuttle bus is only about 3 blocks away. Breakfast was extensive and excellent quality with many choices and was resupplied constantly. Staff at the front desk could not have been more helpful, including making a take-qway breakfast for me as I had to leave at 6am. The room was small ('Economy standard) but I knew this when I booked. It was spotlessly clean and the bathroom was small but perfectly formed.

The hotel advises the economy rooms face an inner courtyard. I had not understood that this meant that there was no view, no ability to open the window and I found this a little claustrophobic. Coupled with a small room it was fine for one but would be challenging for 2 people. Whilst the hotel is close to transport, be aware much of the inner city is covered by cobblestones and pavers which is tough to wheel heavy luggage on!

Breakfast very good Choice of dishes.
