Stuff You Should Know

This 231-room conversion proves size doesn't preclude soul. Former electric company HQ now generates social electricity instead, with a jazz bar that makes Sunday blues optional.

Foodies face serious dilemmas: Nordic-Japanese fusion with city views at TAK, or street food with style at Izakaya. Two pools (one rooftop, one underground - choose your depth). Pro tip: Book your spa time and rooftop table before arrival, or risk watching the good life from the sidewalk.

Location

  • Oslo, Norway

Planes, Trains + TukTuks

In Oslo's sweet spot, where 15-minute walks get you anywhere worth going, but you might not bother leaving – the city's coolest bars are already in your lobby.

  • Nearest international airport
  • Oslo Airport (OSL)
  • Distance from airport
  • 51.6 km/32.1 miles
  • Journey time
  • 20 to 40 minutes depending on who you come: fast train drops you a block away. One small suitcase = public transport genius. Multiple trunks = time to test that valet service and traffic.

Where Nordic-Japanese Fusion Meets Jazz Age Ambition

Your dining dilemma isn't finding food – it's choosing between TAK's Nordic-Japanese rooftop sophistication (book ahead or enjoy lobby people-watching instead) and Izakaya's street food with altitude. The jazz bar doesn't just play standards; it sets them, especially on Friday and Saturday nights. Sunday's quiet spell gives you time to actually hear yourself think about last night's cocktail decisions. Pro tip: Those 360-degree views at TAK aren't getting any less popular – reservation is the better part of valor.
