Citybox is a Norwegian budget hotel brand built around a simple idea: strip out what most travellers do not need and keep the price down in an expensive country. Citybox Oslo sits in the city centre within walking distance of Oslo Central Station and Karl Johans gate. Check-in and check-out are handled at self-service terminals, with a call button to reach a person if you need help, and rooms are compact, clean and practical, with standard doubles and twins that can take an extra bed or baby cot on request. There is no restaurant, but your key card brings discounts on breakfast and meals at partner cafes nearby, and a luggage room in the lobby lets you leave bags outside check-in hours.
Location: walk to the station, the Opera House and MUNCH in minutes, and to the harbour and City Hall in about fifteen. The airport express train leaves from the station nearby.
Who it suits: budget travellers, short stays and anyone who would rather spend on museums and meals than on a room. Check in from mid-afternoon; check-out is at noon.
