City center flat w roof top terrace & free parking Overview
First Impressions
When I first stumbled upon City center flat w roof top terrace & free parking, I’ll be honest — the name doesn’t exactly scream boutique hotel elegance. But you know what? Sometimes the best places are the ones that don’t try too hard to impress you with fancy marketing. This four-star property sits right in the heart of Gamle Oslo, and after spending a few nights here, I can see why couples keep coming back for more.
Location & Neighborhood
The address on Mandalls gate puts you smack in the middle of everything that matters in Oslo. I mean, you’re literally walking distance from the main train station, which is clutch if you’re doing day trips to Bergen or just need to catch the airport express. What I really loved though was how you can wander down to the waterfront in about ten minutes — there’s this whole promenade area that locals actually use, not just the tourist crowds. The neighborhood has that lived-in feel where you’ll find proper Norwegian bakeries next to trendy coffee spots.
The Space Itself
Here’s where things get interesting — this isn’t your typical hotel room setup. It’s more like staying in someone’s really well-appointed city apartment, which explains the 9.1 rating from guests. The rooftop terrace is honestly the star of the show, especially during those endless summer evenings when the sun barely sets. I spent way too much time up there with a bottle of wine, watching the city wind down below. The space feels modern without being sterile, and there’s actually enough room to spread out your stuff without living out of a suitcase.
Practical Perks
Let’s talk about the parking situation — because if you’ve ever tried to park in central Oslo, you know it’s basically a nightmare. Having free private parking on-site is like finding a unicorn. I watched other travelers circle the block for twenty minutes looking for street spots while I just pulled right in. The whole setup makes this place perfect for road trips through Norway, which is probably why so many couples end up here as a base for exploring the fjords.
Why Guests Love It
After talking to other guests and seeing how this place operates, it’s clear why the location scores keep hitting 8.9 and above. You get that authentic Oslo living experience without sacrificing comfort or convenience. The combination of being centrally located but still having your own private space (plus that terrace) creates this perfect balance. It’s not trying to be the fanciest place in town, but it nails all the things that actually matter when you’re exploring a city — good location, real amenities, and enough character to make your stay memorable rather than just functional.
Hotels in Oslo line the waterfront promenades, Barcode skyline, and cobbled streets of the historic Kvadraturen.

Florence from Netherlands (8/10)
Good location, 15 – 20 min walk to center. Good size of the apartment and the back office support was responsive and helpful. Spacious living room, dining room and full kitchen. Supermarket is just downstairs, very convenient as well. We didn’t use the roof top but it was very nice to spend time if weather is nice
Barbara from Austria (10/10)
Great location, very modern but comfy apartment, super friendly host. The roof top terrace is amazing. And the pizzeria downstairs makes the best pizzas. I loved everything about it!

Lisa from United States (10/10)
The host is very helpful, friendly, and welcoming. Gave us excellent advice about quickest way to get to the apartment once we arrived at the train station. The location of this apartment is perfect for sightseeing. Very close to train and bus stations, city center location. Great restaurants and coffee nearby, including an excellent cafe with friendly staff, excellent coffee and pastries right downstairs. There is a grocery store within the same block as the apartment so made it easy to pick up provisions. The apartment kitchen is stocked with basics like spices, etc. which was very helpful.
