BJORVIKA: The Opera House should be on your list of must-see sights when visiting the capital.
Remember to drop by Youngstorget square if you want to experience the newest and most trendy restaurants and bars, open until the late hours. If you visit Oslo in the summer, we recommend you head to the Opera House and the new area Sorenga. This area is vibrant with life, and you can’t leave Oslo without having visited the newest attraction at Vippetangen, Vippa food hall. The area is brimming with people, and the atmosphere is electric.
When you arrive to the area Spikersuppa and the National theatre, you can’t avoid noticing the acclaimed Grand hotell. This is the hotel for those wanting luxury and beautiful surroundings. Right opposite the Parliament building is our newly refurbished Scandic Victoria, with a perfect location within walking distance of the royal castle, Aker Brygge and the museum Nasjonalmuseet. A stone’s throw away is Scandic Solli at Solli square, surrounded by trendy restaurants and some of Oslo’s most popular night clubs. This hotel is also located within walking distance of Aker brygge and Tjuvholmen, and right next to the Ibsen museum and Nobel Peace Center.
Between the city centre and the trendy district Grunerlokka, you’ll find a little gem in the form of a relatively new district, Vulkan. Always lively and vibrant, and you’ll be guaranteed to find something delicious to eat. The food hall Mathallen Oslo is the main attraction and a real 'foodie paradise'. Stay in the heart of the city at Scandic Vulkan. This hotel is Norway’s first energy class A hotel, and we even have our own bees that produce our own honey. Our hotel restaurant, Ristorante Ferro, offers great Italian food. Here you’re within walking distance of the river Akerselva and Grunerlokka, Oslo’s most trendy district brimming with cafés, restaurants and bars. In addition, you’re only a short walk away from the botanical gardens, the reptile park and the Munch museum at Toyen.
VULKAN: The food hall is the perfect place to explore both Norwegian and international cuisine.
Culture and history
Oslo offers great experiences for culture and history lovers, with its many museums and sights. The most popular of all is the park Frognerparken, also known as Vigelandsparken. To stay within walking distance of the park, check in to Scandic Solli or Scandic Sjølyst. The latter is located a little further away but offers a wonderful nature path almost all the way to the park. Scandic Sjølyst is perfect if you want to combine sea and city, with its location close to the sea and within walking distance of Bygdoy. At Bygdoy you’ll find a variety of museums including Fram, Kon-Tiki, Vikingskipshuset, the open-air museum Folkemuseet and Bygdoy kongsgård – in other words, tourist sights to fill a whole weekend! For lovers of modern art, there’s always a new and exciting exhibition at Astrup Fearnley museum of modern art at Tjuvholmen.
VIGELANDSPARKEN: A favourite among both city locals and tourists.
Nature and fresh air
Oslo is located right next to a large forest area, and you’re just a short ride away from Holmenkollen if you take the underground in the direction Frognerseteren. Here you can check in to our iconic Scandic Holmenkollen Park, for the undisputed best views of Oslo. Our hotel has lots of history seeping through its walls, and the famous dragon building dates back to 1894. The hotel is located in the immediate vicinity of the ski jump and the Ski Museum – the world’s oldest specialist museum for skiing. When you stay at Holmenkollen, you'll have the perfect starting point to strap on your skis and follow the trail across Nordmarka forest. If you like speed and excitement, you can visit Oslo winter park. Just look out for Tryvann tower at the top, and ride the cork screw at full speed! In the summer there are other activities for the daring; Hoyt og Lavt climbing park at Tryvann, and the famous Kollensvevet – a zipline taking you down the ski jump. For those who love the sea, Scandic Fornebu is located in idyllic surroundings west of Oslo, close to great beaches and next to Telenor arena, where the world’s greatest artists perform when they visit the capital.
