A 15 minute walk from the railway station, near to bars and restaurants. Clean, comfortable room, although a bit on the small size for a twin room.

I’m genuinely shocked this room was considered suitable for guests. From the moment we arrived, it was obvious the room had not been properly cleaned. Dust was everywhere, including on the plug sockets, which raised immediate concerns about hygiene.

The curtains were particularly disturbing, with visible white stains and what appeared to be blood. There were also marks on the mirrors and floor, making the room feel dirty and neglected. The duvet was in an unacceptable condition, with visible stains and even a hole in it. I can honestly say that this hotel is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in.

Because of the state of the room, we felt completely uncomfortable staying there and had no choice but to book another hotel at additional expense. This situation significantly disrupted and ruined our holiday.

Given the condition of the room and the inconvenience caused, I expect a full refund for our stay. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone, and I am extremely disappointed with the standards and the lack of care shown to guests.

I also felt it was unprofessional and useless how there was no reception for me to contact about a new room so again we have now lost money on this room and now lost more money how we had to pay for another hotel. Due to this i deserve my money back.

This is a great hotel. There are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. I do recommend asking for a room above the second floor and not near the street.

You get what you pay for

The hotel was in a really good location and reasonably clean. Check in was straightforward on a screen. Didn’t have much to do with the staff but when we needed help with luggage room no problem.
However, rooms and towels didn’t get refreshed in the 3night stay. There were a group of us in 3 rooms - our air con was ineffective and we had to open the only window that would open. Friends in another room not so lucky - their window handles had been removed and they were moved at midnight after asking twice for the aircon to be sorted - they had been told this would be done remotely. Some friends had booked breakfast as part of their booking - they weren’t very impressed. Apparently quite basic for the @£16 plus each per day.
Oslo is great - we didn’t pay a lot compared to other hotels so you get what you pay for really.

The best thing about Hotel Verdandi is it's excellent location. Our room was small with mattresses that were too soft. Even though we were on the 9th floor, we could still hear the noise of the college students across the street at Heidi Bar until 2am. This hotel is best for a few nights. We stayed for a week and no one cleaned the bathroom or emptied the trash while we were there. We opted for their breakfast which was very good. However, the entire cleaning staff would come every morning about 15 minutes before breakfast ended and heap their plates with food and sit down to eat. While I don't mind the staff eating, I believe that paying hotel guests should eat first and then the hotel employees eat when breakfast ends. At least one morning when we and other guests came to breakfast, the hotel staff had descended and wiped out the remaining food before hotel guests had an opportunity to dine.

This is a good value for the area. The room is clean and in fairly good shape. We paid $127 USA for the room. It's in a great area of Oslo. Close to the waterfront, parliament, gardens, shopping and good restaurants. Also close to public transportation.

The room was very small. No place to set your suitcase. Clothing closet is also very small.

This room is definitely not a place to hang out for a long time but as a clean place to sleep, it was good enough. The window doesn't open however room temperature was fine.

Great hotel in the middle of Oslo. Very central location, within walking distance if all the sights, and a stones throw from the harbour. Easy check in and check out processes. My only criticism is that my room faced inwards onto a courtyard (no sunlight or ability to see the weather outside), and I was unable to open the window, so room was a little stuffy. Otherwise a great experience!

Nice hotel by the harbourfront

Location was brilliant, easy walking distance to port and other locations. Room was really small but as we spent most time out that wasn't a problem. Staff were friendly abd breakfast was a good spread. My only complaint was the taxi company that had a direct link to in the foyer tried to get me to pay without it showing the price on the card machine. When I complained he said don't i trust him, then after i tapped my xard he then produced another machine with the actual charge onnit. I thinknhe pribably cloned my card. Then he soed off so i couldn't take his plate number.

The location was good for walking to many of the desired sites to see in Oslo. This was the first hotel I have stayed at that did not have a coffee machine or option in the room. When I asked the one staff member if I could have a cup from their breakfast machine I was told I could buy a cup. Breakfast is a $25 up-charge. The hotel has one staff member on duty at a time. Unfortunately for this individual they have to run the bar, get towels and handle issues etc.

Comfortable room but very minimal; no in-room tea/coffee making as advertised, although there is access to this in the main lounge on the ground floor. Air Con didn’t seem to work properly & none of the windows opened, so it got pretty stuffy at times with no fresh or cool air. Staff seemed mostly indifferent to guests — never rude, but never particularly polite or helpful either. Don’t go expecting much and you won’t be disappointed. Centrally located in Oslo so handy for most things; about a 10-15 min stroll from the central station.

We had to move to a different room after the first night as we were situated over the front door which banged almost all night long. As well, the noise from people out on the street also went on all night as they sat themselves out on the patio area outside the hotel for long periods of time and chatted very loudly. Do not book room 201 ever, even though it looks like a nice room, you will regret it!
It's a self-service hotel but there is a customer service rep who helped us get another room, although we had to come back twice the next day which cut into our plans. He gave us a room with almost the same view as the bad room but on the 6th floor and it was so quiet. I was grateful for the assistance. The breakfasts were so-so, often there were no bowls or when you asked for something some of the restaurant staff were borderline rude.
The hotel is in a convenient area but I don't think we would stay there again. It's really not that clean and we're not very picky. But if you stay there, ask for a room on an upper floor and don't bother with their breakfast and it will probably be ok for a night or two.

The only good thing is the location

Hotel location is brilliant, close to all tourist sights. However, self check in which was easy but NO information in room or about check in area. There was no iron in the room and when i asked the staff they advised there is an ironing room on 6th floor. No information about this anywhere. “Ironing room” there was ONE iron/board. There was also construction work on building which we were not told about prior to arrival. The room was basic, clean but HOT. The A/C didn't work and it was set to constant heat. The window opened but it was an internal room so didn't make much difference. The bed is small and with the heat, expect restless nights. We did not use any other facilities in hotel. There was also a sewage smell coming from the lower area/downstairs of check in. You were welcomed with that smell!!

The hotel was in a great location, but was right across from a bar that played music until 3am and made sleep impossible. The mattresses were a thin pad and the pillows and comforter were sort of discolored which made them look dirty, hopefully they weren’t. No housekeeping came to change towels during the 3 night stay. There was no front desk attendant for most of my stay.
