The Thief Hotel

Excellent location, great breakfast and room and fantastic staff

Everything about The Thief is well planned and executed. From the check-in, the room set up, the restaurant and the spa - all top notch!

The Thief is a stylish hotel in a great location on Oslo‘s waterfront. It’s right across from an art Museum honor small island connected by a short pedestrian bridge. It’s an easy walking distance of numerous restaurants in an attractive section of Ola. The reason I gave it only three stars is that many of the rooms, including hours, that faced the art museum also faced a somewhat narrow alley that led to several apartment buildings at the edge of the island. This alley was constantly noisy throughout the night with both love talking or even bellowing residence or visitors. Also constant were various trucks, including garbage trucks that rumble intermittently all night long. On top of that, would seem to be hotel workers on the alleyway were constantly pushing smaller garbage bins all over the place. The hotel had turned off our ability to use the room controls to activate, ventilation systems, so we had to open the sliding doors to our little balcony, a foot or so to let in fresh air. This meant that there was really no way that we could cut off the Street noise and still have fresh air. Everything about this hotel was lovely. The rooms were very nicely done in a modern and attractive manner and the breakfast was superb. The hotel staff were very pleasant and accommodating. However, since one of the purposes of a hotel is to provide a good nights sleep, I have to down rate this place to three stars because it was virtually impossible not to get woken Up 6 to 8 times each of the two nights we were here. That is beyond annoying. I’m not sure there’s anything in the hotel can do to alleviate this, so be sure you do not get a room facing the art museum.

Everything about the hotel exudes quality. The location is perfect, close to town but quite. Being on an island the balcony room offered fabulous views of the waterways and boats. The staff were amazing. We were given a heads up on the wild day of constitution day celebrations, suggestions on where to visit and best of all blankets to keep warm on the roof top while having a few late beers. The room design and quailty is exceptional and the food at breakfast and dinner were perfect. Can't wait to return.

greta experience at a fine hotel with attentive staff and wonderful amanities. Everything was done well and our stay was seamless form arrival to departure. I'll be back.
