Overview

Clarion Hotel The Hub is a modern skyrise property located on a main street in the city's shopping district. You'll be just a 3-minute walk from Oslo Central Station in one direction and the Oslo Cathedral in the other. You'll also be close to bars, cafés, shops, and restaurants. Other sites are a slightly longer walk, with the Oslo Opera House and MUNCH Museum 10 minutes away on foot. 

The Hub offers bright, spacious, and modern rooms, each with views over Oslo and stylish linens. For an upgrade, you can opt for one of the suites with a separate bedroom, and families can book the rooms with sofa beds for extra sleeping space. Enjoy amenities like desks, espresso machines, and smart TVs with streaming capabilities. The hotel also offers accessible rooms, with options adapted for those with limited mobility and people with hearing and vision impairments.

Start your day with a meal at the ground-floor Hub Bar, and dine at one of the hotel's restaurants. The Norda restaurant and Calmeyers Hage offer great food and drinks with views of the Opera House, Bjørvika, and the Oslo Fjord. For a different experience, have a look at the hotel's rooftop, GrowHub, where microgreens and vegetables are grown for use in the hotel's kitchens. The hotel also has a gym and a relaxation area with a steam shower, sauna, and pool for you to unwind.

The rooms are fine, but small. It seemed to be very busy, and not quite up to handling the volume. The line at check-in took about 30 minutes. Once we were assigned a room, we entered it and found it was already occupied. Yikes. After another wait at reception, we were assigned a second room, for which the key did not work. Next, the third room was also occupied, and the occupants were quite distressed about it. Finally, after talking to a manager who assured us that we would be upgraded, we... Read more

The rooms are fine, but small. It seemed to be very busy, and not quite up to handling the volume. The line at check-in took about 30 minutes. Once we were assigned a room, we entered it and found it was already occupied. Yikes. After another wait at reception, we were assigned a second room, for which the key did not work. Next, the third room was also occupied, and the occupants were quite distressed about it. Finally, after talking to a manager who assured us that we would be upgraded, we got a room that was vacant (!!!), clean, but not an upgrade. Didn't really care, but why promise an upgrade and not come through? The location is quite central, and an easy 5 minute walk from Central Station. The bars and common areas are very nice, if a bit crowded. All of the personnel were friendly, helpful, and empathetic. The issues that we had were systems issues, not people issues. And besides, Oslo is such a charming and wonderful city, who really cares about such trivial matters?

Great location, clean well appointed room, huge breakfast. We enjoyed our stay at Clarion the Hub as it made a great jumping off point for seeing Oslo. One thing to note - the hotel is HUGE and seems to be used by cruise lines for passengers to stay before and after cruise departures. This made it exceptionally busy, especially the breakfast where sometimes we couldn’t even find a table! Read more

Just across from central train and a short walk to the harbor.

Not the friendliest check-in or breakfast staff. A smile would be nice!
