Saga Hotel Oslo, Worldhotels Crafted

“Excellent”

Possible the best hotel I've ever stayed in. It was quiet, clean, friendly and had the best breakfast buffet I've ever encountered. It was easy and quick to hop on a tram to the city centre. It couldn't have been better for me as a solo traveller.

“Just right”

I picked this hotel because it was the closest to where I had a meeting, but I lucked out - this place was just right: Comfortable, and with a lovely breakfast with a variety of offerings. (I saw a child carrying a plate of just meatballs and chocolate cereal - live your best life, little one!) Lov… more

“Nice hotel and location”

The hotel is nice and everything was pretty. My only issue was that the WiFi was weak which made it very difficult to check work emails on my phone etc. However, if you’re there only for leisure, the hotel is great.

“Yes, yes indeed a good place to stay!”

Not exactly in the middle of "old Christiania" and downtown hustle and bustle. But fairly close to most things you want to see and do as a tourist and/or occasional visitor.

Not exactly in the middle of "old Christiania" and downtown hustle and bustle. But fairly close to most things you want to see and do as a tourist and/or occasional visitor. Saga resides in Uranienborg, near the Uranienborg church, a bit up-hill from down town and in a primarily residential area. The Royal Castle Park is about a 5 minute walk away. And down town center another 5-10 minutes by foot. If you not fancy walking the tram and bus network is extensive in Oslo. No problem getting around. Usually I'm not so fond of "boutique" hotels, but Saga is in no way overdriven with peculiar decorations, weird interior or strange mishaps supposed to be "cool". It's elegant. It's quiet. It's relaxing. The official three star classification (if I got i right), is in my opinion clearly four stars. Slick public areas with reception/lounge made for gathering or casual meetings. Rooms very fine. We had an airy corner room where there was plenty of light. Bathroom of high standard. Mini bar (expensive of course - this is Norway) and fully satisfactory amenities. Not many hotel beds you can remember sleeping exceptionally well in - can you? Well, Saga's beds will remain in my memory. Extremely comfortable! Lovely pillows. Best sleep in a hotel I've had for years. Truly. And it is sooo quiet! Breakfast is downstairs in the basement. A bit gloomy environment, but that is well compensated for by the very good breakfast presented. Small scale and well maintained. A lot of choices. None will leave hungry. Staff kind and attentive. By Norwegian monetary standards, Saga is affordable. Highly recommended!
