The information on this site informs of a restaurant and bar, there are pizzas available which are fresh and tasty but this doesn’t constitute a restaurant nor does a set menu meal if you are invited to take one although only by pre-booking! Also this website gave wrong information on distances from my chosen point, 22 miles was quoted which would have been ok, but it was nearer 50 miles and that took in excess of 1 hour in each direction on top of a working day!

Great hotel. Near to ski slope, easy for the family. Great easy slope for the kids. Airport transfer is possible via train and metro but taxi is much easier. Remote location, so plan your meal ahead. We enjoy our stay and lovely food there

We really enjoyed our 3-night stay! This place is only a 30-minute metro ride from the center of Oslo, yet we felt as if we were in a national park. The atmosphere here is incredible. You're in the middle of the forest, looking down on the city of Oslo and Oslo Fjord. The property is clean and comfortable. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet is extensive; there's something for everyone with an array of good choices: yogurt with a zillion toppings, cold cuts, cheeses, eggs, bacon, sausages, potatoes, waffles ... Our room was sparsely furnished but had almost everything we needed -- I say "almost" because if I could change one thing, it would be that we would have had an extra place or two to set things down -- an extra little table or a ledge or even a couple of hooks on the walls. And if that's the worst thing I can say about this place, we did just fine! We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great location overlooking Oslo - spoilt by noise
Lovely hotel. Great food. Handy for the train into Oslo centre. Stay spoilt only by the fact that our room was under the dining room, so we were woken at 11pm and again at 6am by tables and chairs being dragged across the floor. Really annoying late at night as it went on for over half an hour. Otherwise a really great place with fantastic views from the terrace.

Elevated hotel overlooking Oslo
Warm and friendly hillside hotel sitting 501m above sea level providing stunning views overlooking Oslo. The hotel felt orientated to the outdoors with Winter Olympic influence and facilities nearby (also has conference facilities). Outdoor pool, sauna and small fitness centre on site. Modest and functional rooms, quiet hotel given location although will depend on your neighbours! Breakfast buffet was great with plenty of choice. Overall, would recommend within classification.

TINY room & toilet despite being far from the city
I booked this hotel based on the high ratings given by others, but was shocked when we entered our room. Given its location, which is away from the city centre, perched on some high mountain, we were expecting the room to be at least a decent size, if not, of generous size. It's hard to imagine that given its location, the room and toilet size still had to be scrimped on. We travel a lot an have seen hotel sizes of varying ranges, but this one is even smaller than rooms and toilets in Japan! In other hotels, even if the size is small, the design is smart, so that it still allows you to do what needs to be done. In this hotel, even using the toilet was awkward. It was not even possible to sit properly on the toilet as the sink came right up to the chest - you'd have to sit at an angle. I find this absolutely ridiculous. You also wouldn't even be able to use the sink if you closed the toilet door, as there is insufficient space to bend forward. I find there's no point commenting on everything else as this major point is a huge turn off for me to discourage anyone from staying here. Oh yes, and, there was no elevator in the hotel. Take note if you're traveling with many luggages.

Spacious room just outside the city centre.
A comfortable hotel not too far from the city centre. A much more quiet area. The hotel itself is as expected for a large chain with rooms that are twice the size of most you'll find in the city centre.

Unbelieveable view of Oslo fjord
PROS: - Nothing can beat the spectacular view...! Ask for a room with view. - Breakfast is AWESOME.. Both hot and cold items include eggs potatoes meats, various array of cheese and breads and fruits, many choices of cereals and yoghurt, juices and hot beverages..!! Breakfast is included in the price..!! - Lobby has great cappucino machines. - Bed was very comfortable. Bathroom was adequate. CONS: - However the rooms get very hot due to lack of cross ventilation and affected our whole nights sleep. Ceiling fan or ac is reqired. That is why I gave a 2 out of 5 for room comfort. - Also guests be informed that the rooms do not have iron and ironing board.

Breathtaking views, good price
This hotel is quite far from central Oslo but offers the best views of Oslofjorden and very pleasant environment on the top of Holmenkollen hill. It is ideal if you are into sports or would like to be away from the city's buzz. A train stop is at 5 minutes walking distance and it takes 30 minutes to the centre. The hotel was pleasant, the rooms were good and well-furbished. The only disappointment was the restaurant with its variable food quality and quite bad service.

Lovely hotel - what a jewel
This hotel room was super clean. The Hotel is filled with art and the staff was over the top with friendliness. We were in Scandinavia for 2 weeks, and found this to be a jewel of a hotel. The views are fantastic, the rooms are comfortable and the food was fantastic. Although dinner was a small menu - we could have dined in Oslo and taken the "T" back to the hotel. Other writers mentioned the "long" trip into the city - but don't believe that. The "T" was clean, quick and safe and well worth the trip to have such a great hotel. We traveled with our 10 year old son - and the hotel provided a roll-away cot that was comfortable and stylish! This hotel felt "safe" and "full of culture". We used the Gym and the pool and enjoyed hiking as well. But, the best part was enjoying coffee and drinks on the balcony. For the price - you can't afford to stay in the City.

Our stay at the Voksenaasen was near perfect. The food was outstanding and the staff was accomodating in everyway. The only thing not perfect was the distance to the T-Bane, especially for guests with limited handicaps. However, that did not take away from our enjoyment of the time in Norway. Should we return for a future visit, we will choose the Voksenaasen for lodging.

Voksenaasen Hotel in Oslo Norway
The hotel is wonderful and the rooms were great. The breakfast was spectacular with plenty of variety of food and bevarage each morning. The view from the hotel was great and the hotel is near good cross country skiing. The only negatives I can think of was the late night disco music in the bar above my room on Saturday night ending around 3 AM. Bring earplugs in case you are in he rooms under the bar. Also, the walk to and from the T-Banen Voksenkollen stop gets a little old when the weather is cold. But you are in Norway so expect winter.
