The hotel bristol was definitely the poorest value of any hotel on our three-week trip through norway and sweden, with facilities and a level of service that would have been acceptable in a hotel charging no more than half the bristol's rates. As far
... as we could tell, the only thing with which it justifies its rates is the (admittedly impressive) collection of olde-worlde kitsch furnishing its lobby. The hotel appears to be seriously understaffed, with stressed-out employees at times giving us the feeling that we were intruding on private grief. We would advise independent travellers interested in luxury accommodations in oslo to look elsewhere.
