“From what I've gathered, this hotel whispers old-world luxury in the heart of Oslo, dating back to 1920. The breakfast alone appears to be a destination, judging by accounts of its lavish, multi-room spread. Its commitment to sustainability and the unique Library Bar only add to the enduring charm, in my opinion.”
