Hotels near The Vigeland Park, Oslo

Arrived on our ferry from Copenhagen before lunch so left luggage and wandered until checkin was possible. All so good so far. When we came to check in we asked to make sure the room didn’t have feather bedding - assured it was clear of feathers, however when went up to room this wasn’t the case. Went down, explained at which point after many discussions (explaining that I’m allergic to feather bedding over and over (as we had with the booking) I was offered another room which apparently was better (but the guy on reception didn’t seem to understand my question as to whether the new room would be free from feathers ….!) Went up to the room and of course it had feather bedding. We moved all of our luggage into the new room and my OH went down to reception this time and the same guy simply didn’t understand what we were explaining so OH requested another member of staff who did understand second time around. (Later bedding was all replaced which was then fine. ) the surprising thing was they had members of staff on reception whose English wasn’t quite up to basic requests (unusual for anywhere in Scandinavia) (while admitting my Norwegian is non-existent!) The bathroom was possibly the smallest I have ever witnessed, albeit it did have a bath with shower over. All v clean and fully functional. The pool and sauna were ok but a little small, but if you timed it you could use them. Generally the staff were a little slow (perhaps the hotel doesn’t have enough staff currently to service guests?) and service alone would put me off coming to stay here again unfortunately.

Loved the spaciousness of the twin room. Bathroom floors felt heated so appreciated that. Fantastic location.

Room is big and clean. The receptionist is very friendly and welcome. The location is very close to the station. Easy to find and get train to airport. The washroom is very big. They don’t have water heater for boiling water only is the disadvantage. Overall, this hotel is very well recommended.

I would really have liked to have given this a five star review, because the reception staff were super friendly, making sure I knew where the tourist attractions were and how to get there on my first day and letting me use the toilet when I popped back on my last day well after I’d checked out, as well as giving me a room with a phenomenal view of the fjord, but a couple of things took the shine off for me. One was the lack of air con. I mis-understood how hot Oslo could be, which is kind of on me and not the hotel BUT the DIY open window and fan arrangement weren’t entirely satisfactory, and while I was in my room, I never felt entirely comfortable with how hot I was. I guess the opposite could also be true if you can’t control how hot or cold your room gets in winter (when I assume my imaginings of snow drifts is actually a thing). Secondly was the breakfast. I can in no way fault the food - smoked salmon, scrambled eggs, bread, carrot cake (always a joy, whatever the time of day), melon, cheese and ham, but trying to find a table was sometimes impossible. It was particularly difficult for me as a solo traveller. It involved getting up early, crossing my fingers and piling everything on my plate in one go, just in case. Some days it was fine, but one day, after walking what felt like the entire length of the shopping centre getting increasingly dispondent, I had to perch on the end of a table with a group of pensioners who were staying there after two weeks travelling up and down Scandinavia together on train. Fortunately I am mature enough to be able to make small talk, but I can see how it wouldn’t go down so well with everyone else. Coffee was also a hit hit and miss - I was only offered some two out of four days. These little quirks are a real shame, because the location is great (handy for the train and city centre tourist attractions), and as I say, the staff on reception were lovely (and based on what I heard while I was standing in line, some of the other guests can be quite demanding). If I’m in Oslo again, I would definitely consider staying here again (but maybe bring a handheld fan or multiple layers of clothing, depending on the season) and maybe avoiding the breakfast.

It was the best hotels. I have stayed. The breakfast buffet was extensive and delicious. We enjoyed the stay a lot. I would recommend this hotel to everyone who are planning to visit Oslo. It’s  just 13 min walk from central station oslo. Will definitely come back.

Hotel just right to the main station, 5 mins walk away. love that there was a luggage room so no need to worry if you arrived early. however there was a hiccup during our stay. where my friend forgot her small pillow at the hotel and when we emailed to ask there were no answer untill few days later with nothing was found in the room, couple of days later they found the pillow and send to us with charge, at least it was found. thanks to housekeeping and the management team.

Chain hotel, clean and sanitary. Family-friendly choice. The hotel's parking lot is charged, but it is convenient. There is a supermarket in the building opposite, which is also convenient for purchasing daily necessities.

Не первый раз останавливаюсь в этом отеле и всегда очень довольна. Прекрасное месторасположение и виды из окна на фьорд. Отличный завтрак в ресторане. Комфортные условия проживания. Очень чисто. Цена - достаточно бюджетная для Осло. Рекомендую!

Hotel Leangkollen is a fantastic hotel, situated in a lovely place with fantastic history and great outdoor areas. The hotel has what I/we experienced as Norway's best food for both lunch and dinner. We also had a conference at the hotel, and break food and coffee were always ready between the program. For those who have a conference in the same wing as the rooms, I still have to recommend going to the break section at the reception, which has an even better selection if you have forgotten breakfast, feel like for some fruit, popcorn, sweets or simply soft ice cream. The staff were welcoming with a smile and provided fantastic service througout our entire stay. Don't forget to give a little praise here and there to the individual if you are lucky enough to experience the and the same quality of staff we experencied from arrival to departure. All in all, delighted. The hotel can be highly recommended for conferences in a work context, but also for private overnight stays/travels.

The stay is exceptional from we walk in the door till we leave. Nice and serviceminded people in the lobby, incredible food and a really nice conference area. Because the hotell is full, there is a lot of noise in the dining hall. The best hotel food in Norway. Great selection and mouthwatering food. The food should have had better signs. The rooms near the lobby and other common areas could have been better soundproofed.
