Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 2 October 2026 · How we review hotels
Savoy 1918 is for travellers who want a personal boutique hotel in the middle of Oslo rather than a large grand hotel. With 92 individually furnished rooms in a vintage-inspired style, it feels intimate, and guests notice the details, from high-quality fixtures to a handwritten welcome card. What they praise above all is the staff, closely followed by beds that many call the most comfortable they have slept in. A wellness area with sauna, Cafe Watt and Savoy Bar round off the stay. The central location has a price at night. At weekends some rooms hear the street and a nearby nightclub, though closed windows help. Breakfast divides opinion slightly, with some finding it busy or limited, and the older building means long corridors and the odd practical quirk. There is no pool. Couples and city-break travellers who want warm service and a calm room will be very well looked after; light sleepers should plan around weekends.
Guests score it 9.3 out of 10 — the average across the 6 hotels we list in Oslo is 8.9.
What Guests Loved
- The staff are what guests mention most. They are described as friendly, polite and accommodating, from a warm welcome after a long journey to small gestures that make guests feel they went the extra mile.
- Guests repeatedly say the beds are among the most comfortable they have slept in, and the rooms are described as well appointed, peaceful and very clean.
Things to Consider
- Some rooms pick up street noise at weekends and sound from a nearby nightclub at night, although guests say it is manageable with the windows closed.
- Most guests enjoy the breakfast, but a few found the room hectic at busy times and the selection somewhat limited, and one felt the restaurant prices were on the high side.
