I had a mixed experience at Scandic Holmenkollen Park. The views over Oslo were amazing, and the breakfast spread was one of the best I've encountered. However, I faced some issues with the service at check-in and the overall cleanliness of the room, which could use some attention. With a bit more focus on guest experience, this hotel could truly shine.

The room was quite spacious and modern, but I was disappointed by the cleanliness under the beds during my stay. While I appreciated the size and upgrades, I think the lack of a fridge is a significant drawback, especially when it comes to storing food.

The hotel's location is superb for exploring Oslo and getting to outdoor activities like skiing, although the walk from the subway can be challenging, especially in icy conditions. The stunning views from the hotel are a major highlight.

Although the gym and common areas were well-equipped, I faced challenges trying to access the pool facilities without prior reservations. Better communication from staff about scheduling needs would enhance the experience.

My stay at Scandic Holmenkollen Park was truly nice, thanks to the amazing views of Oslo and the fjord from my room. The breakfast buffet was a highlight, offering a fantastic variety of dishes. However, I did find the acoustics in the breakfast area to be a bit off, making for a less-than-quiet experience. While the hotel's architecture is stunning, I noticed a few areas, like the spa management and housekeeping, that could use improvement.

However, I found the room a bit on the small side and lacking some extra touches that would have made my experience more comfortable. While the breakfast offered a good variety, some of the warm food was disappointingly cold. Overall, I enjoyed my visit, but there were areas that could be improved to enhance the guest experience.
