Hostels that guests love in Oslo
- From US$171.01 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 26,861 reviewsLoved this place it was like an up market youth hostel . Loved the automated check in and the fact that they have cut back on what they provide in order to keep the price down but still provide the essentials and modern comfortable beds. The bit I liked best was the kitchen facility and laundry (which is why I said it was like a youth hostel) . Lots of travellers from all nationalities gathering in the kitchen to heat up their food or to work on laptops . Great atmosphere .
janeUnited Kingdom - From US$171.01 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 26,861 reviewsGreat location, very convenient for central Oslo. Room features were basic but it was clean and safe. Liked that there were shared amenities like games room and kitchen area, could imagine this being really handy if you were traveling solo. Great that we could store our luggage.VictoriaUnited Kingdom
- 8.3Scored 8.3Very goodRated very good· 1,607 reviewsGreat location in the middle of the lively part of the Oslo, that is full of hip modern bars and shops. That is, a "hanging out" street for younger people. Windows were sound proof. Beautuful, modern, new, clean apartment.NinaSlovenia

- From US$118.42 per night7.4Scored 7.4GoodRated good· 11,417 reviewsThe hostel is at a great location although at least locals say that is a bit shady area. Just across the river is a bery nice bohemian creative neighbourhood that looks and feels much safer. Staff of the hostel is wonderful, friendly and helpful. Common areas are nicely designed and quite comfortable. Checkin and checkout was very quick and efficient.GundarsLatvia
- From US$171.01 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 26,861 reviewsGreat location, so close to the central train station (with easy connections to airport) and all the highlights of Oslo. The lobby and common areas are modern and funky and make you feel less like you are at a budget hotel. Definitely a boutique version of budget. Bed was comfy and the room, though small as expected, was functional. Cheap coffee in the lobby!
MaryCanada - From US$118.42 per night7.4Scored 7.4GoodRated good· 11,417 reviewsAlways like this place for short trip to Oslo with friends. It is cozy and clean room in norwegian minimalistisk style with all that you need. Only thing is a kettle, we do need it in the room. Great hostel, especially if you like new people and meetings, they have great location and big common area. It is cool that now sheets are free, they give you towels as well. Takk takk!AngelaBelarus
- From US$171.01 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 26,861 reviewsGreat little hotel - budget option for someone who wants some space and privacy without the hotel price-tag. I had been staying in a combination of hostels and hotels for a long trip and this was a great economical option for a break from dormitory life. Great location, close to train station, sight-seeing and some lovely cafes, bars and restaurants.StormeAustralia
- From US$194.17 per night7.8Scored 7.8GoodRated good· 13,658 reviewsGreat location and communal areas. Self checkin is smooth and given the crazy expensive prices in Oslo, this is a more budget alternative to regular hotel rooms (though still not cheap!)
ShankaUnited Kingdom - From US$118.42 per night7.4Scored 7.4GoodRated good· 11,417 reviewsGreat location for walking around the center. The tram is in front of the hostel, and the central train and bus station is maybe 800 meters away. Very helpful reception. New, neat and clean kitchen. After the check out, you can leave the suitcases for safekeeping.Ana_RijekaCroatia
