Holmestrand Vacation Packages

Good

The place was spacious as we had the two bedrooms. The apartment had natural cooling, which was ok as it wasn’t as hot while we were there and cooled pretty good with the windows opened. The kitchen was okay stocked, but didn’t have a few essentials like oven mitts and dish towel or cloth. Place was equipped with soaps and a few pods for dishwasher and one for washing machine. It does take some time to dry, but we hung some clothes up and they dried overnight. We were able to access key cards into building and room okay. It did take some time to hear back on the luggage room code, the messenging system seems automated, but we finally got through. There was bad reception in the basement as well. Overall a good stay. Location was close to grocery store and a relatively short 10 minutes walk from the train station. Some music at night, but wasn’t bad on weekdays. Sundays are quiet. The view was nice and so is the roof top patio.

We recently stayed at The Thief in Oslo and it lived up to its reputation. Yes, it is expensive, but in our view it was worth every penny. Our room was beautifully appointed and very comfortable, and the staff throughout the hotel were unfailingly helpful. Breakfast was a real highlight: a superb spread with excellent service, and the scrambled eggs were amazing. Dinner options in the rooftop restaurant are more limited, but what we had was perfectly fine, and the setting is lovely. The gym is good and the spa is excellent, though be aware that spa access may cost extra depending on your room category, so it is worth checking when you book. Highly recommended if you are looking for a luxury break in Oslo. We would happily return.

A very nice hotel close to the waterfront area and downtown Oslo. The tram stop is right in front of the hotel. Room was very nice. We had a junior suite. Still amd sparkling water dispensers are available on each floor. Dining options are plenty as they have 5 restaurants on site. Breakfast is pretty good as well. My only complaint t is that it was at times difficult to contact guest services.

Lovely modern room, super clean and comfortable. Excellent bed and pillows. Nice big window that can be opened for some air. When closed, we couldn't hear anything from outside. Great shower with good pressure. Great location. Check in and room key is all done through an app which feels a bit unnecessary but was very manageable.
