Oslo is an expensive city food prices are very high, although quality is very good. This half way up a mountain hotel knows how to deliver a good dining experience that lessens the pain somewhat. The service is friendly and the breakfast should be taken advantage of. We had a an inclusive breakfast with our booking and it was exceptional. I have rarely seen as much as choice, quantity or quality in a hotel. So if you go on a budget make this the main meal of the day which is healthier anyway. Free internet access, pool, sauna and comprehensively equipped gym, whats not to like? We will go again and I will recommend this hotel to my colleagues for longer stays. It is a little out of the way however if you plan correctly you can get into the city centre in about 30 to 40 minutes for 25 kroner one way on the T-bane. A taxi will set you back around 300 Kroner so forward planning is advisable. Great place, must be fantastic in the snow., with the fire burning in the hearths, stunning architecture and good quality furniture, definitely not your average The indoor pool is small and the single sex sauna will take four at a pinch.

Loved this hotel. Beds were super comfy, staff was friendly, rooms were clean, breakfast was abundant and delish, and the view was gorgeous. The metro (bus at the time, because the end of the metro line was being repaired) worked great to get us into town quickly.

Well the breakfast was excellent! I've been using this hotel since it was re-built in the 70's and have always been very satisfied, indeed we had our wedding reception there. BUT oh my, its time it refurbished and bought itself up to date. Room was gloomy and 70's, a bit shabby and not very clean. The bed linen had a blood stain on it! The reception staff were offhand and made us feel like second class citizens because we had booked through Hotels.com! Pity becaue we've alwasy like dthis place, not sure if I ever want to go back. Oh, and by the way NOK150 to park our car and NOK 1,50 per minute to use internet!

I don't know if I am just used to the service of upscale hotels in the States, but this hotel; like all the others in Europe does not use bellboys to help with bags. I am disabled and for me, this is a real problem to have to carry my cane and manage to get bags to my room. Otherwise this hotel is wonderful (if you have a car), but expect to spend $100.00 to $500.00 (for 2) to eat at the restaurants in the hotel.

The price was right and the breakfast outstanding; however, they could have done a better job cleaning the rooms. Specifically the bathrooms.

Very nice view and fantastic breakfast!!!

I chose this hotel because it was much cheaper than city centre hotels at the time of booking. To get to the hotel, we got the underground to Majorstuen and then a bus to Holmenkollen. The Holmenkollen train station is being rebuilt, so taking a train and bus will be necessary until 2011. When you leave the train station, follow the painted footsteps on the pavement and it will lead you to the bus stop. Breakfast was great, and there was plenty to choose from. We had dinner once in the hotel in the evening. The food was ok but I'd recommend eating in Oslo city for a better quality meal. If I was returning to Oslo, I'd definately stay here again!

This is a nice hotel but the walk to the bus stop to get you to town is a bit steep. Not a problem going to town, but if you have spent a day sightseeing and the like, it is a struggle to get up the hill. Not recommended for anyone not somewhat fit who plans to use public transportation. A taxi to the center of town from the hotel is about 300 NOK.

Stayed in this hotel for two nights. Fabulous, highly recommended! If there is any chance back there again, definitely still choose this one.

Compared with other Hotels I have stayed at in Oslo I would rate this the best so far. My three day stay was an enjoyable experience overall. The room was clean and quite spacious with an en-suite toilet and bathroom. I ate in the Buffet restaurant on three occassions for an evening meal. The menu remained unchanged over this period of time and the food was very good. Breakfast was also excellent with a good choice of food available. I intend to stay at this hotel when I return to Oslo next year.

Great location and building, Cracking at the edges tho'. Broken safe, broken mirror, only occasional maid service, crazy internet access system, overcrowded breakfast room in the week. Probably edging towards it's sell by date. Front Desk staff helfull and friendly. Slightly overpriced - even for Norway!

this hotel is one of the best hotels we have stayed. the hotel is near a metro station, only 10 minutes' walk from the trik. it looks like a landmark in holmenkollen. the staff were really nice, helpful, friendly, especially the waiters/waitresses in the restaurant. the breakfast was nice and you have many choices. of course, the dinners were very expensive, about NOK 275 for an adult. the room was comfortable, and through the window, you could see the beautiful white world. anyway, we would recommend to you to stay in this hotel, you will not forget your stay in Holmekollen Park Hotel Rica.

Magnificient view Easy access Nice dishes Good fitness area

This is an amazing place to stay. Its reasonably easy to get to by train also. The frustrating points were that iall standard rooms come with 2 single beds. I definately do not recommend the cheaper restaurant. The service was terrible.

Excellent hotel in an extremely picturesque place, comfortable rooms, great breakfasts. However, in the lobby and corridors there is a smell of oil.

Had one of the worst check-in experiences by the supposed new front office manager (L*&e) who did not care at all to offer customer service and any positive first impressions. Was the first time in my life I felt like Im at a supermarket checkout rather than one of the best hotels in Oslo!! Food in the main restaurant in the evening was good, although the rest is average. Excellent service in the restaurants!!!

Nice calm place with amazing views to Sea and Oslo, waterfall. very pelaesant staff, tea-coffe facilities in the room, excellent breakfast. Easy access to the city

This was a much higher standard of hotel than we would have had for the money in Oslo centre. The whole building was well presented/appointed with an air of quality and the staff were extremely helpful and pleasant. Excellent hot and cold evening buffet inc. desert for a surprisingly reasonable price for Norway. Free internet in lobby - though only one computer Of course it is out the city but there is a metro station a few minutes walk away which will take you into the city centre in about 10 minutes (as I recall). Naturally, you can also drive there, but it's not worth the hassle in my view. Please note: it is on a very steep hill so best to be moderately fit without mobility problems if you have no transport; hotel parking was not free (maybe this is normal) but there was a nearby parking area that could be used for free 2 or 3 mins walk away.

Pls. take into consideration to book a room with a view to the valley! Very important!

Flott beliggenhet og utsikten kunne vært fantastisk dersom trærne var hogd. Ulempe med anlegg og stengt T bane stasjon.

Kan det overhovedet blive smukkere? En fantastisk oplevelse at komme til dette hotel, smukt ydre og elegant indre med en service fra receptionen, der er perfekt. Men mest af alt: Udsigten over Oslo by og fjord!!! Det kan ikke findes bedre. Prøve det selv og bedøm det.

Frokosten som ble servert er noe av det ypperste jeg har fått servert på et hotell noen gang.! Helt i særklasse! Vil komme tilbake bare av den grunn, selv om det er flere grunner til å komme tilbake dit!

Delikat og nydelig frokost med stort utvalg. Stille rom med god seng.

Hervorragender Service. Das Hotel ist nicht billig, aber für Oslo und Norwegen insgesamt sehr preiswürdig.

petit déjeuner de grande qualité et très varié piscine très appréciable pour se détendre après une journée intensive services (petit déj, bagagerie) pour les départs et arrivées très matinaux ou tardifs

Godt beliggende hotel i frie og rolige omgivelser. Venligheden var under middel og rengøring og service kunne være bedre

Litt nedslitt hotell og lite serviceminded resepsjonspersonale. Litt skuffet da det tidligere har vært litt storhet over Holmenkollen Park.. Men- hyggelig atmosfære og fantastisk frokostbuffet.

Hadde 1 natt i forbindelse med flyttiing..ikkje så mange timane på hotellet men heilt ok rom, gode senger, god frokost og flott beliggenh. og fasititeter (for dei som har tid å nyte det..). Særdeles god middag på resturant "De fem stuer" (middagen blir dog lett dyrare enn overnattinga -men er verdt det ) .Parkeringsfaseliteter også eit pluss. Annbefales !

Weekend-prisen på dette hotellet gir mye for pengene, gode rom, og ikke minst en fantastisk fin frokost. Den er nærmest uslåelig. Ulempen e at det ikke er et godt mattilbud om kveldene, de fleste turister har neppe råd til gourmetmiddag i "Tre stuer". En kan få et litt enklere måltid i et tilstøtetnde rom, men vinlisten er den samme, og hvor de fleste viner koster fra 1000 kroner og opp til det 10-dobbelte. Det er for dårlig!,

Seinem Ruf kann das Hotel leider nicht (mehr?) gerecht werden. Die Aufgabe eines einfachen Upgrades endete in einem kaum zu überschauenden Durcheinander.

Fin beliggenhet. Små men pene og moderne rom. Dårlig tilbud for bespisning på kvelden. Eneste alternativ er å betale minst 300 kr for å spsie i restauranten og det er for dårlig når hotellet ligger lant fra byen

Et eventyrlig hotell med en fantastisk beliggenhet, hyggelig betjening og en flott frokost. Litt tungvinte parkeringsforhold med mindre man vil betale for å stå i hotellets parkeringskjeller. Beliggenheten i forhold til kollektivtrafikk er heller ikke særlig god.

Meget godt hotell med fantastiske turomgivelser. Langt fra sentrum, men relativt kort vei til T-bane som har hyppige avganger

hvsi man skal ha tidlig møte i byen blir 0700 for sent.

nydelig utsikt - verdens beste frokost. ikke sentralt men kort vei til naturen. ca 250 kr med taxi til sentrum. gratis trådløst nettverk. hotell med særpreg.

Beautiful hotel that reminds me about old days in Norway. Spectacular panorama-wiew over Oslo. Exellent breakfast You should have a car to reach the hotel or take a taxi

Hotellet er av de beste vi har bodd på. Særlig roen på natta når vi hadde behov for å få hvile ut var helt topp.

The worst thing is inchecking time is 15.00. It should be 12.00 or 13.00 o'clock. The public transport is not either best to rreach the hotel due to the rebuilding of Holmenkollen station and train track.

Super dejligt Hotel med kort afstand til Oslo Centrum. Total fin betjening. Meget dyr parkering som ikke er includeret i Hotel regningen.

Bra businesshotell för den som vill bo utanför staden.

Prachtig uitzicht op de Oslo fjord vanuit onze hotelkamer. Uitgebreid, maar erg druk, ontbijtbuffet. Het restaurant ' zag er s avonds erg chic uit. Vlakbij de Holmenkollen springschans (maar die wordt nu helemaal verbouwd)

Flott hotell med topp servive

Hotellet har en utrolig fin beliggenhet, er veldig pent innredet og er ryddig. Personalet var veldig hyggelig og imøtekommende. Helt topp.

Vakkert plassert hotell i rolige omgivelser med nydelig utsikt over Oslo. Hotellet har en meget hyggelig resepsjon betjening med god mat.

Ottimo hotel con vista panoramica sulla città di oslo e sul fiordo, lontano dal traffico della città. Camere spaziose e fornite di tutto. La parte antica della struttura è in legno in stile tradizionale, molto bello e particolare. Strepitosa la colazione a buffet.

Vi ble "oppgradert" til suite og det var en flott opplevelse. Fantastisk utsikt fra en liten balkong. Det hele ble toppen med den beste hotellfrokosten vi har opplevd noen gang.

Stupenda la posizione (panorama indimenticabile) - Ottimo l'albergo - un po' scomodo il raggiungimento soprattutto e con i mezzi pubblici - comunque una sistemazione raccomandabile

E' situato sulle colline alla periferia nord-ovest, posizione da cui si ha una fantastica vista sul fiordo di Oslo. Le sue forme e la struttura esterna in legno lo fanno sembrare un castello; ancora più bello la sera quando è illuminato. Camere spaziose, arredate finemente, letti comodi. Personale cordiale e disponibile. Il buffet a colazione è veramente imponente. Per raggiungere il centro città abbiamo utilizzato l'autobus (la cui fermata dista pochi minuti a piedi, discreta pendenza) fino a Majorstuen (capolinea) e da qui proseguito con il tram. La Metro non l'abbiamo provata in quanto d'estate su questa tratta viene sostituita dall'autobus (linea 1B).

Var veldig fornøyd med hotellet helt til vi skulle spise frokost. Savnet et innbydende bord med varm og kald mat som ble servert på en apettittelig måte. Mener også at det hygiensiske kunne ha vært bedre i forhold til bestikk som ble lagt oppå pålegget.
