4-Star Hotels in Akershus, Norway

Flying from Tromsø to Oslo for an early morning flight home the next day, we had a bit of a mix-up. We rushed to the nearest 'Blue Hotel' after exiting the airport, thinking how convenient it was, only to be told it wasn't the right one. So, we walked and walked, following the covered walkway for about ten minutes until we finally arrived. The hotel's name wasn't very obvious, and I even thought we'd gone wrong again. The room was very spacious, with a large bed and a bunk bed, and the bedding was excellent – very large. However, the shower still didn't have a door, so water got all over the floor. We only stayed for five hours from check-in to check-out, which felt a bit like a waste.

I stayed here for one night before heading into Oslo city, and honestly, it exceeded my expectations. The location is incredibly convenient for travelers—just a short ride from the airport. The hotel may not be ultra-luxurious, but for a short stay, it’s absolutely perfect. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the overall environment was peaceful and relaxing. The lobby is spacious and beautifully designed—it gives a very open and welcoming first impression. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of options (more than I could finish!). There’s even a gym available, which is a great bonus for a transit hotel. But what really stands out is the value for money—for the price I paid, this was way beyond what I expected. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone needing a convenient and comfortable stay near Oslo Airport. Totally worth it!

This hotel is fantastic; check-in was easy, check-out was easy, staff were helpful, professional and efficient. The breakfast was fantastic - having seen some negative reviews on other sites I can honestly say that I have no idea what they were talking about - maybe they were on glue? The room was perfectly sized for a solo traveller; a drawer might have been helpful so when I unpacked I had somewhere to put my clothes, but I was only staying for 2 nights so it wasn't essential. The bathroom was small but perfectly formed and functional. It was so clean it looked brand new. The bed was a double and very comfy; my only feedback here is that I was only given a single duvet. Seemed a bit daft for a double bed but again, solo traveller, so it didn't really matter. I'm sure that had I asked they would have happily provided a double duvet. I liked the little amusing signs everywhere and appreciated that they were in English despite being in Norway. The view from my room was exceptional. I arrived on a sunny evening and it was breath-taking - thank you for arranging that ;-) Above all, and most importantly for me, this hotel was incredibly clean. I can usually find something that will turn my stomach cleanliness-wise, but not at this hotel, it was immaculate. Thank you for a lovely stay :-)

Second time booking this for a layover, still a great choice. I love the cozy seating area in the lobby. The facilities are complete, and everything is clean and tidy. The environment is very welcoming, and the service is decent. It's perfect for a layover in Paris. Highly recommend!

The hotel's location is quite close to the airport, though I heard it's not as close as Radisson Blu. However, it makes up for it with newer decor. The room size is very generous, and the bathroom is also excellent, making it perfect for catching early morning flights. You can find the hotel by turning left from any ground exit on the arrival level of Oslo Airport and walking straight. The only downside is that I stayed at this hotel for two separate nights, and I booked breakfast for the second night. However, the front desk didn't inform me that weekday breakfast only goes until 9:30 AM, so I wasn't aware of the breakfast times. I came down exactly at 9:30 AM and missed it. Everything else was great.

I'm giving it a high rating only because I don't want to ruin the rating. But I can definitely say I'll stay at other hotels if I have a layover in Oslo. There's no water in the room, so if you're thirsty, you can buy half a liter of water at the reception store for 47 NOK. Even at the airport, the prices are better and more welcoming.

The hotel is very good, clean and green. I will surely visit Oslo again because of the hotel. Their customer service is very good and their breakfast buffet is the best. I and my woman really enjoyed our stay at the hotel. 5 stars is what I can give in all ramifications.

First time to travel to Oslo and had a lovely time at Raddison Blue Oslo! Location: It was far from the station and it took longer than I expected. And it’s not easy to find a way at first and a bit quiet area so if you’re going first time better to arrive early during day time as it might be very dark to walk from the station. Or take taxi. Room: very clean and it was nice to have slippers and bathrobe. Bed was very comfortable. It was great to have not only kettle but also Espresso coffee machine. Only thing is showers water pressure was quite low , I was surprised since it’s Raddison blue. Stuffs: reception stuffs were very kind and nice, they kindly arrange me to stay at a room on see side so it was lovely to see sea from window. Surrounding: No shops are around so it’s a bit inconvenient but it was so wonderful to have a sea side path for a quiet long walk! Breakfast: variety kind of food and spacious restaurant.

The hotel's style is a bit dated, but it's clean and odor-free. Its location is close to the airport, but you need to take a bus to get there (under 10 minutes); it looks close on the map, but it would take over an hour to walk. The hotel offers a free breakfast with a wide variety of options. For Oslo, the price is quite good.

This is our go-to choice for a layover. It's close to the terminal and has a 24-hour front desk. We arrived in the early hours, and there were three staff members at the front desk (the young man who checked us in even said ”thank you” in Chinese!). The breakfast spread was excellent, and the hotel has plenty of rooms.
