Thon Vika Atrium

You're three minutes on foot from Oslo's upscale waterfront area, packed with shops and restaurants.

Three minutes to Aker Brygge. Eight minutes to the Nationaltheatret train station, which connects directly to the airport. A bus stop right outside. 

The building wraps rooms around a central atrium. Rooms facing the interior get their light from the atrium. They're dim. Ask for an exterior-facing room when you book, or you'll spend the day in a cave with a fridge and a Chromecast. Standard rooms run about 16 square meters, this is tiny even for Oslo standards. Two people with suitcases will be doing a shuffle dance around the bed.

The breakfast in the Holmen restaurant is outstanding. Big spread, good quality, proper hot options. Free coffee and tea in the lobby around the clock.

The staff are sharp and helpful. The neighborhood is upscale waterfront, restaurants everywhere, quiet enough at night if you're set back from the main drag.

Ask explicitly for an exterior-facing room. Atrium-facing rooms are dark and depressing.


Upscale waterfront territory. Aker Brygge and Tjuvholmen are right there with restaurants and bars, but the hotel sits just far enough back on a side street to dodge the late-night noise.

What to do nearby


2.2km Insider pick
A concentrated, walkable collection of authentic Norwegian buildings and interiors that includes a medieval stave church and dedicated galleries for costume and craft. It is the only place in Oslo where you can physically walk from the Black Death era (1300s) to the Nokia era (1990s) in less than 20 minutes.
2.2km Insider pick
A concentrated, ordered presentation of a single sculptor´s entire public programme that lets you study material, form and expression across more than 200 works. It is free, open 24/7, and captures the universal human experience (joy, anger, grief) so perfectly that you don't need to know anything about art to feel it.
2.3km Insider pick
A single-block granite column that compacts over a hundred interlocked human figures into the park's central, monumental focal point, offering close-up study of Vigeland's figure work.
