I stayed at Thon Hotel Slottsparken for two nights, and while it didn’t exactly blow me away, it’s a perfectly decent place to stay. The staff at check-in were friendly, though a bit on the quiet side—they could’ve given me a bit more of a tour of the place, but I had to ask about the facilities myself, like a bit of a treasure hunt.
The hotel isn’t what you’d call “luxury,” but it’s functional. The carpets in the common areas were a bit “well-loved,” but it didn’t bother me much. The room felt a bit cold and bare at first, and getting to it was like a mini expedition through the building. But once I settled in, it was comfortable enough. The bed and pillows were absolute winners—solid 10/10 for sleep comfort.
Breakfast was simple but tasty. The freshly baked bread and batter were the stars of the show—honestly, I haven’t had anything like it in ages. The coffee was good, and there were fresh juices available too. The chef was cracking jokes with customers, and the new waiter was friendly, though a bit green. A few more options on the hot counter would’ve been nice, though.
One odd thing—housekeeping changed the bin but didn’t bother with the towels. No biggie, but I thought a quick towel swap wouldn’t hurt. Also, I couldn’t help but wonder why the pillowcases and duvet covers were all turned around face down—was it some kind of secret hotel ritual?
Check-in and check-out were smooth, and the location is spot on—about 20 minutes from the central station and just a short walk to a station with a direct link to Oslo Airport.
Overall, if you’re after a comfortable, no-frills stay, Thon Hotel Slottsparken fits the bill. Not luxury, but for the price, it’s definitely worth considering—and who knows, you might even get a joke or two from the chef!Matthew from United Kingdom (8/10)
Lovely hotel. Reminded me of like an Ibis hotel. Very unique colours. Great breakfast. Love the little shop they offer.
