Stayed at the Thon Hotel Cecil just over a week ago and would definitely recommend this hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful, the room was clean and well stocked, and the breakfast buffet was excellent every day we were there. The location is very convenient as well. Not sure why people are complaining about noise as we had a... More

Stayed here for business. The rooms have been rennovated and are modern and fresh, with kettle, tea/coffee, mini-bar etc. The bathrooms are a little old, but clean and totally fine. The room I had looked out into the atrium and accross to some offices, so no fresh air when opening the window. Also air con/ or heating centrally controlled and... More

This hotel has a very central location. Only 5 min walk to the airport train and central Oslo within easy reach. Excellent breakfast. Not very expensive and consequently fairly basic service.

This hotel certainly cannot be recommended. The back of the hotel is next to one or more nightclubs, which produce load and heavy music till the middle of the night. It is impossible to sleep. It is incredible that the hotel offers these rooms. The staff are unwilling to do anything about it; e.g. why don't they call the police?

Comfortable bed, quiet, soap dispensers on wall in shower and by sink, complimentary umbrellas, computer and coffee in lobby, ample and delicious buffet breakfast in atrium...three kinds of pickled herring and hot, homemade bread included. TV in room, but costs extra to use. Key card elevator provides extra layer of safety for guests.

We have stayed here a couple of times whilst visiting Oslo. The hotel is in an excellent location, right in the centre of Oslo and within easy walking distance of all Oslo's central attractions. Rooms very clean and staff are friendly. The breakfast room is amazing with a good choice of food.

We have stayed in two hotels in Oslo. This hotel had a smaller room and cost slightly more, but the location of this hotel compensated for those issues. It is near the waterfront walking area, close to the transportation transfer point at the National Theater, and within walking distance of the train station. Note: Although the hotel's address is given... More

Small, somewhat impractical standard room with hall-stand ( no wardrobe) but with comfortable, soft beds. Our streetside room was too noisy to sleep in with open window (as is often the case in city centers). Good airco, though, and dito breakfast.
