CLARION COLLECTION HOTEL GABELSHUS

DESCRIPTION

• Rooms : 113, Design Hotel, Central location, Historic building, Spa.

• Built as a villa in 1912, this stylish and elegant hotel is located in one of Oslo's most exclusive residential areas. Don't be deceived by the rather grand façade though - this is a warm, welcoming and, above all, stylish hotel with incredibly chic interiors. The large windows allow the light to stream in and bounce off the light wood floors and immaculate white walls, and throughout the hotel you find classic Scandinavian furniture, giving the property a pleasingly cool, minimalist feel. Cosy, comfortable lounges, one with a fireplace, and a library help create a homely atmosphere, while the small garden in front of the hotel makes a wonderful spot for outdoor drinks in the summer. All of Oslo's main sights are within walking distance, and after a day out exploring, you can unwind in the spa.

• The rooms are cosy, light and beautifully furnished. Wi-Fi internet access is available throughout the property. Hotel Gabelshus has one of Oslo's best spas, where you can enjoy all kinds of treatment, or some time in the sauna or steam room. The terrace is a popular place for breakfast, or to relax with a glass of wine after a busy day. A light evening meal is included in the room rate. The property is non-smoking throughout.

• The hotel is located in Skillebekk, a tranquil area brimming with villas, embassies, fruit gardens, cafés and exclusive boutiques. Nearby you can find Bygdøy Alle, Oslo´s most stately street, lined with oak trees, and a little further away the royal palace. The Aker Brygge shopping centre on the waterfront is also a short walk away, as is the Vigeland Sculpture Park.
