Hotel was a perfect location to enjoy the sights of Oslo. Easy walk from National Theater stop from airport. Easy to access tram for sights further away. As all Thon hotels, amazing breakfast buffet, wonderful service and we were allowed an early check-in. As a bonus, we were upgraded to a junior suite looking out onto the Parliament Building!

Hotel Thon Cecil is in a great location. It is close to all the sites in the harbor area and also the center of Oslo with its shops and restaurants. Although the room was clean and updated it was very small. It was hard to navigate around and find a place to put my suitcase.

Excellent breakfast included in the room rate. Good comfy beds. A problem wit construction that started at about 7.30 every morning. Not quite clear if it affected just our room or floor. We were top floor. But I’d recommend you ask about that. Otherwise very comfy and clean. Close to all major tourist areas.
