The room was crowded by the double bed and a bit unique being right off the stairwell, but I liked the high ceilings and the bathroom was a decent size. Having both breakfast and dinner included was a nice perk, and there were good selections available on the buffets for each. The hotel is in an older building in a neighborhood setting which is nice, and it's within walking distance of the Vigeland Park. While I was there, though, the street in front of the hotel was all torn up with some kind of road construction, and it was difficult for my taxi to get to the front door. The staff was very helpful and it was a pleasant stay.

The hotel is in a pleasant residential neighbourhood of small houses. I walked a lot but there is a tram stop nearby. I was in a single room, small but comfortable and not claustrophobic. Great breakfast, there is also an option of dinner and an afternoon "Fika". Also a drinks bar. The staff is always available and responds friendly to any question. A real pleasure for those who like a special and intimate hotel. Not cheap like all hotels in Oslo but very warmly recommended.

Great home hotel!

We had a fantastic stay here. The front facing large room with a balcony was a real great experience for us. The location is very convenient with the tram station for #13 right at the corner. Breakfast and dinner provided by the hotel were all excellent. They are cautious about gluten intolerance, so I had no difficulty eating their meals. Strongly recommend!!!

Beautiful mansion!

Hotel Gabelshus is a gorgeous property and unlike anywhere we have ever stayed. We felt like we were in a manor home from the 16th century. There is a library, a dining hall, and other nooks and crannies where you could curl up on a sofa or set of chairs and enjoy tea and read a book. The interior of our room looked as if it were in a home decorating magazine. The wallpaper matched the pillows and the carpet. There was a small lounge area in the room where you could sit and socialize or just relax. The price included breakfast, a coffee/sweet hour and dinner. The food and choices were good with several beverages offered, however, more than once the food wasn't hot. Especially at breakfast, twice I ate very cold Scrambled Eggs and Baked Beans. I know you make a big pot and it is hot when you bring it out to the serving line, but please put down a heat source so the food stays hot while it it out on the line to serve. Location is good for public transportation with quick access to the tram. Very, very small elevator so if you are elderly and use a walker, this might be difficult. Also, the toilet was in a very, very small corner of our bathroom so tricky to use. Again, a handicapped person could not have used our bathroom toilet, so tell the staff ahead of time if you need special accommodations. We would recommend this hotel and will definitely stay here again if we return to Oslo. Thank you to all at the Gabelshus!

Very unimpressed

Had to lug our bags ups an awkward round staircase and then duck under low beams, doorways and a massive beam in the middle of the room .wouldn't stay there again and it was also very expensive. Reception and breakfast were nice but room was a disaster.

Excellent hotel near the centre of Oslo. It’s in a quiet area but is walking distance to the centre and has public transport links via the nearby tram stop. The hotel itself is quiet and cozy with great amenities. Both breakfast and dinner were great with a good selection - dinner was more than a ‘light meal’ so ate there every night!
