  • Breakfast was in a temporary room with no natural light, but the choices were reduced and the coffee ran out both mornings. I also felt hounded to leave at 10am.

Elegant Hotel Let Down by Room 316 and Service Issues

Hotel Bristol in Oslo certainly has an elegant charm and an outstanding breakfast served on fine porcelain with real silverware, but our stay was marred by notable room layout and service flaws. Service was noticeably lacking, particularly at the Bristol Grill. Upon arrival, we were left standing at the entrance for 15 minutes before the maître d' finally came to seat us. Be cautious if you are assigned Room 316. The layout is awkward, with the TV placed directly in front of the dividing wall between the bed and the bathroom. Instead of facing a street or city view, the window looks directly out onto a large maintenance HVAC/ventilation unit. More concerningly, the two single beds had only loose mattress pads rather than proper mattresses—one pad slipped right out of the frame, causing my husband to fall. Housekeeping logistics also fell short. Every morning, a long line of maintenance carts cluttered the hallway, making it frustratingly difficult to enter and exit our room. It is a beautiful property, but management needs to address these basic comfort and operational issues.
