Studio apartment 10mins from Oslo Cent. station. Overview

First Impressions

The Studio apartment 10mins from Oslo Cent. station. isn’t your typical hotel — it’s actually a compact apartment that feels more like staying at a friend’s place than some sterile accommodation. Located on the third floor of a residential building on Selma Ellefsens Vei, this three-star spot gives you that authentic Oslo living experience without the hefty price tag of downtown hotels. I mean, when couples are rating the location 8.4 out of 10, you know there’s something special about this neighborhood.

The Space

The studio itself is thoughtfully designed — you’ve got everything you need in a surprisingly functional layout. The room combines sleeping, living, and dining areas without feeling cramped, which honestly impressed me given Oslo’s notoriously tight real estate market. There’s a proper kitchenette where you can actually cook (not just reheat leftovers), and the whole place has this clean, Scandinavian aesthetic that feels authentically Norwegian. The windows let in plenty of natural light, which you’ll appreciate during those long Nordic winter days.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s where this place really shines — that ten-minute walk to Oslo Central Station isn’t just marketing speak. I timed it myself, and it’s genuinely doable even with luggage. You’re also perfectly positioned to explore the city on foot, with the Opera House, Aker Brygge, and the main shopping district all within reasonable walking distance. The neighborhood itself has that lived-in feel where you’ll see actual Norwegians going about their daily routines, not just tourists snapping photos.

Practical Considerations

What I really appreciated was having access to a proper kitchen — Oslo’s restaurant prices can be brutal, so being able to grab groceries from the nearby Rema 1000 and cook your own meals is a game-changer for your budget. The building is quiet (Norwegian apartment buildings tend to be), and you get a real sense of what it’s like to live in the city rather than just visit it. Parking can be tricky in this area, but honestly, you won’t need a car with the excellent public transport connections right at your doorstep. The convenience of having everything within reach makes this an ideal base for exploring the vibrant capital.

Why Guests Love It

That 9.2 rating doesn’t come from nowhere — this place delivers exactly what it promises without any pretense. You’re getting genuine value in a city where accommodation costs can make your eyes water, plus the independence that comes with having your own space. The location rating of 8.5 from recent guests tells the real story here — you’re close enough to everything that matters but far enough from the tourist crowds to actually relax. It’s the kind of place where you’ll find yourself planning a longer stay next time because it just feels right.
