It's our national day, and we all gathered for a big lunch.the food and service was excellent. But the restaurant buffet interior need a new style, and for this lovely area, a french bistro, open all day, would be perfect! The Hotel deserves a proper restaurant:)

If you're travelling to Oslo by car this is a perfect hotel. It is situated just outside the most busy city centre and includes free parking. We stayed during a out of season weekend and were upgraded free of charge. The wifi was very good. Breakfast was more than adequate, good bread, eggs cooked perfectly. Highly recommended.

Have stayed here for many years, its the best and most user friendly Hotel in Oslo, quiet location in a class residential area (Oslo West), very near the centre if town, accessable and friendly staff with spacious well designed rooms and free car parking.

On the outside it looks like a big house more than a hotel. The nice library and fireplace gives the same feeling. The breakfast and lunch are excellent. The staff friendly and helpful. Some of the rooms are on the small side, but the beds are good. On the whole it is a hotel with a realy nice atmosphere. A... More

Many thanks for the nice review and describing the hotel as it is: nice and homey atmosphere, good food, comfortable beds, and at last but not least "Home away from home". I am glad we could provide the homey feeling and hope that you will return to us for the next accession. More

Stayed one night in Clarion Collection Gabelshus as part of Norway in a nutshell. The Hotel is in a lovely quiet area in Oslo, but within easy walking distance of the centre (20 mins) There is also a tram very close by. First impression was good, as the Hotel looks lovely. The room was small (particularly the bathroom) but was... More

I have stayed a few times at Gabelshus, hoping to make this my regular place in Oslo. I normally stay 3-5 nights, and appreciate a good hotel when I see one. Hotel Gabelshus is within walking distance to the city centre (20 minutes) and a tram service takes you there in 6-7 minutes. Tickets can be bought at the kiosk... More

The rooms are on the small side, but perfectly workable. The first room we had was a bit older and all the lights were on a master switch - annoying since the two of us adapted differently to the time change. The staff kindly found us another room. We could turn on one light at a time which worked better... More

Dear guest, Thank you for your positive feedback. The price might seem high but taken into consideration the price level generally in Oslo as well as the evening meal that we offer free og charge to our guests hopefully makes the value justified. Have a nice day and welcome back for another occasion. Best regards, Naira Lalayan. GM More

This hotels pretends to be a higher-scale boutique hotel and charges like one, but is somehwat closer to an average roadside motel. It may look lovely on the outside but looks can deceive...

To sad to hear all written above, sounds like to is not the hotel I know... We get the best score on our breakfasts buffet claiming to be one of the best in Oslo due to absolute majority of our guests, therefore it sounds strange that you experienced it like canteen type… There are several people working in the cleaning...
