Great concept, all very slick but no frills, almost hostel like but better and best location. Great to have a shared communal space with fridge, etc, shame that my food gor stolen from the fridge overnight but not really the hotel's fault

Forventet lite rom og det ble det, men ble litt lurt av melding om oppgradering ved innsjekk! Ikke TV og ikke USB ladepunkt.

Basic hotel for a stay in Oslo - comfortable bed and warm room. Contactless check in, supposedly. Had a few technical hitches which were sorted by the available ‘hosts’. Unfortunately, this was often met with disdain, like I had disturbed them (with the exception of one helpful member of staff). However, all issues were sorted eventually. Great ability to be able to leave luggage, and kettle, extra towels etc available on request. Coffee machine in the communal kitchen, but costs extra. A distinctly average stage, despite the apathetic hosts. This is how they advertise the stay so worth the reduced price! Definitely a good idea for a brief stint in Oslo where you don’t plan to spend much time in the hotel.

Great location, easy check in and luggage storing. Quiet. Simple room, had some issues with the thermostat, either too hot or very noisy. Other than that its perfect for one night.

Citybox is amazing. Afforable for such a great service and quality stay. Hotels are designed with so much creativity and modern aspects. Very easy kiosk check in and check out, but staff are there in case anything is needed. Rooms are spacious. Wifi is good. They offer few things like a kettle and microwave in the lobby and the hotel has a lot of social areas.

Great little stopover, few mins walk to Oslo Central train station. Quick and easy check in. Will definitely use again. We need places like this in London.

Location was good and close to the station and many other attractions. The common pantry was very useful to heat up any food as they had microwaves and also a sink to wash our cutlery. They also provided disposable cutlery. Check in was easy and you could contact the staff if needed. Rooms were clean.

Fantastic stay. Would really recommend for a stay in Oslo.

Extremely pleased with the facility and location! As Solo Traveler, important to feel safe, which I did. Right by both the Opera House and the train station (the one you'd take from the airport), as well off the main thoroughfare, couldn't have asked for a better location. I booked an individual bedroon in the hostel, and loved it. Nice bathroom. Only problem was during check in, the Hotels.com Reservation Confirmation number IS NOT the number you need to check in. I would NOT try to check in without a Citybox employee there to help. It is a completely different number and since check in is at a self-service kiosk, if you try to check in after hours, you'll be SOL. I was fortunate that I checked in during the day, so no problem. Also, GREAT luggage storage. Would def stay again and recommend to my friends. A+

The hotel emails you a code about 6 hours prior to arrival, totally contactless check in and keys issued (great). You look at the hotel guide to see where your room is and which elevator to use (note: one elevator per area, may need to wait for next elevator as they are not that large and many people staying there). Rooms are basic and minimal - you can get additional towels on first floor, a few hangers and hooks to hang items, large windows (great natural light). There is a train stop right outside the hotel. The central train station is about a 5 minute walk.

The overall service is fine but there is not enough space for luggage.

The room is very pleasant. It's clean and is super enough for one person. It's comfortable. But I barely slept because I can hear all the noise from outside in which I understand because of monday rush. However, I don't know if its the guests or whoever. I can hear the banging of doors in the morning as well. But overall its good.

The ease of checking yourself in was quick and easy. This facility felt more like a hostel than a hotel but we didn't mind. I wish we would have had a fridge in our hotel room but other than that, everything was great. The cafe was also a nice touch and convenient to grab a pastry and coffee before heading out for our day.

The doorlock did not work properly, room was worn out and very basic. Elevator could not be used for the 4th floor and was not repaired the 3 days I stayed.

I stayed in Citybox Bergen right before coming to Oslo, compared to Oslo one, Bergen’s is much better, newer and cleaner. Oslo one is quite aged, both the room and the lobby/ common area. Many flies in the common area and I feel it’s not clean. The fridge is full and unorganised, my food was rearranged by someone else which make me difficult to find( the packaging was removed for some reasons). The bathroom design is not user friendly, the door was designed to be closed which the ventilation is not good and created some smell.The sink is suitable for hand wash only, it’s even not big enough for washing face. The bed is comfortable but there’s some weird noise at night, I need to play music to cover it. In general, it’s ok coz great location, but there’s lots of room to improve the cleanliness and facilities of the building.

A hotel with no reception desk. Simply type in your reference no. And a key issued after you have paid. No coffee or tea in room and no TV either.

Very efficient! From check in to check out. Only comment was about the fridge (I just open it up) and it was vert messy.
