Thon Hotel Vettre

My two teenage daughters and I stayed the night. The dinner in the restaurant was amazing. My daughters ordered a very steak each and it was cooked to perfection. The choice for breakfast was also very good. I stayed on the sofa bed and it was comfy. The pool was a bit cold so we managed only 15 minutes before heading to the sauna.

Thon Hotel Vettre Single female traveler on a weekend excursion to scuba dive in a Fjord and see Oslo. The Thon Hotel was reasonably priced and an easy bus ride from Oslo center. I chose it as I was taking a scuba diving class in Vollen. The bus stop is 200 meters from Reception. Nura the receptionist was more of a concierge. The check in was easy and Nura assisted with logistics to get to Vollen and day trips to Oslo. Nura is a star! The room was nicer than expected with a balcony to greenery. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom contained shower gel and soap and had heated floors. There is a fridge with mini bar. My hairdryer was on the fritz and Nura secured me a loan dryer from the hotel. The lock turns from the inside and can not be opened without turning that lock from the inside. Secure. The front desk has beverages for sale including alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages as well as chips. There is a Kiwi grocery store nearby. It is not open on Sunday. The restaurant was quite good for dinner with a nice selection of wines by the glass or bottle that you can take back to the room. Breakfast was included. There are juices, coffee and milk and non-dairy options. They had 4 choices of eggs, bacon, sausages, Turkey meatballs, roasted potatoes, and beans. There were different types of breads to slice as well as croissants. Many different types of quality cheeses were available along with fresh fruits and vegetables. There were yogurt and cereal choices as well. The pool was a decent size and offered towels, showers and a changing room. Vettre is beautiful. I would stay here again and I would choose the Thon chain again based on this experience.

The hotel staff were great - food was fantastic - all allergies were catered for - fun bar games - good location To have gone up to a five it would need the woman’s sauna as well as the pool open. I needed to use the men’s. It’s also a little austere for my taste. I’d like it more homely.

The hotel is very well maintained. The rooms are clean, the bathrooms as well. Hotel guests are major businessmen. Reception staff very nice and helpful, full of professionalism. The air conditioning and heating works flawlessly. The biggest advantage of the hotel is its restaurant. Restaurant tables are located in such a way as to allow you to talk freely without the need to lower your voice. Lots of space in a good atmosphere environment. Very good quality meals, varied breakfasts and extensive menus. The hotel is in a good location - close to the road leading to Oslo and close to the ferry port, which takes you directly to the center of Oslo (port next to the city hall). We recommend it for business meetings.
