The Thon Hotel Cecil was in a great location to tour Oslo. My room was nicely appointed … only the mini fridge cooler did not seem to work. But they have ice machines at each end of the second floor. I appreciated that they cut out the wire around my window during construction so I could see out. The breakfast buffet each morning was a delight with lots of options … including vegan. The evening meal of soup and salad was a delightful surprise to be included … I highly recommend the delicious vegetable soup!&

The hotel is very good, as central to Oslo’s highlights as it gets. They provided a light meal in the evenings which we took advantage of, and breakfast in the mornings. Both were very good! The rooms are very clean and modern. The hotel is undergoing light renovations now but otherwise it was fine for our stay in Oslo.

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.
