PS:hotel by Nordic Choice

The rooms are good. Very nice and clean bathrooms. And some of the rooms with a nice view of the Vulkan area, trough windows covering the whole wall. Great surroundings for any "foodie" with the food court "Mathallen" as the nearest neighbour. And an impressing collection of good food shops and restaurants. But first of all is it about the staff. I've stayed there some times now, and have never received anything less than extremely friendly and helpful service. Knowing that the idea behind is providing jobs, for people who otherwise would have had problems in the job market, this is impressive. Most hotels got things to learn from them. I'm already looking forward to my next stay, which is in a few hours.

This is a new hotel situated in the new Vulkan neighborhood, right at the edge of the vibrant neighborhood of Grünerløkka. The rooms are spacious and we were lucky to get a great view from the big window. Interior is designed tastefully, the rooms and amenities are very minimalist (don't expect any drawers, safe or toiletries) but it's mostly for the best. Breakfast was enjoyable. The concierge even went the extra mile and prepared sandwiches for us because we had to skip the last breakfast to catch our flight — That really exceeded our expectations and was much appreciated! On the minus side: Unfortunately the bathroom and bedroom is only divided by a glass door that doesn't complete close and provides no privacy. Due to Covid, the rooms are not being cleaned unless explicitly requested — we were not informed about this on check-in and were left wondering. The access to the room is complicated with multiple doors and locks and switches to be passed.

This experience was a rather mixed one. I really wanted to like this hotel since it has a wonderful employment policy. The service and reception staff were exceptional. Very friendly and super helpful. I had asked for a room on a higher floor and they obliged without fuss. The location is also top, near the Mathallen (Food hall with loads of dining options). My main gripe is with the room itself. These days, most hotel rooms have a mini fridge and/or some sort of kettle with complimentary tea and coffee. This room had none. It was decorated sparsely, had nice colours and a really good view. But It felt more like a hostel room than a hotel room. The bedlinen was really basic, just two pillows and a thin duvet. Requesting more pillows is certainly possible. The bed could be more comfortably set up. It didn't feel inviting. The bed frame itself seemed to be built out of plywood as a platform which had a sort of divan built in. The mattress on top was thin but decent enough. There were no toiletries other than basic liquid hand soap, from a dispenser that you find usually at public toilets. The shower/toilet is also not heated, so floor tiles felt cool to the touch. There is ample hot water and decent water pressure. It was an acceptable experience, I was not uncomfortable, don't get me wrong but if you're looking for a 'hotel' experience, this won't cut it. It is a VERY VERY good hostel-style private room. The big windows are a real plus point, and made what was a small room brighter and nicer. Breakfast was so so, not much to choose from but fairly decent in taste. Standard eggs and bacon fare made fresh. Almost nothing except muesli for people on plant-based diet.

I loved this hotel! Streamlined but hearty breakfast, nice staff, tons of food establishments nearby and overall, just a great vibe. They even have 24 hour reception with beverages and a great vinyl collection. A star off due to the location being out of the way for public transit and no charger supplies (I had to run around for ages to find a phone charger). Also, the hotel hallways can use a bit more freshening up. Other than that, this hotel was magnificent. Thank you PS HOTELL. I will come back when the pandemic is over :)

The PS hotell is located in a very neat artsy part of Oslo away from all of the foot traffic nearby the train station. The room was very nice and had a great view of the city. The complimentary breakfast buffet was delicious. The staff was very nice and knowledgeable of the area.

What a great dinner! We wrapped up our day in Oslo with a burger at the PS Hotel and it was just perfect. The service is great, the food is generous and delicious. If you're looking for fresh ingredients and good service, this is your place!

Best receptionists in my lifetime. Chris was incredibly accommodating and deeply helpful. I shared a room with son and his friend. Asked Chris if he could put me in a separate room since I started to cough. He did at reasonable price. He also volunteered to arrange for medication. He and the night Manager Ahmed customer service skills are off the charts! I see incredible wonderful careers for these fine young men! You are who you hire, great job PS Hotel, Oslo!!!!

Stayed here with my wife for a night and our expectations were not only met but surpassed in every single way. - The service here is incredible! we spent two weeks in Norway and had been trying to find a place that would cook/sell Steinbit. We didn't find anything even when looking in Oslo that day, came back to the hotel and told the people at the front desk if by any chance they had it in their menu (which they didn't). The next time we walked through the front desk they called us over. They had found 2 restaurants that sold it, which they proceeded to call to see if it was available. Never in my life had I received such caring service. - The restaurant in the hotell is really good as well. I had a very nicely prepared Cod that was simply delicious and my wife had a really good burger. Again far exceeded our expectations with the quality of food/service/presentation Would definitely stay here again if I ever come back to Oslo.
