Frommer's Review

Because there are two "First" hotels in Oslo, a choice has to be made. If you're given one of the better rooms, we prefer the Millennium to the First Hotel Grims Grenka, as the Millennium is one of Oslo's "personality" hotels, known for its cozy atmosphere and character. In 1998, the owners took over a 1930s office building, successfully transforming it into this comfortable refuge. Rising nine floors behind a pale pink facade, the hotel is noted for a stylish kind of minimalism. Rooms range from standard to superior. The former is comfortable in every way, but the latter is among the most spacious in town, with many Art Deco touches. On the top floor are a dozen accommodations with their own large balconies opening onto cityscape views. Family rooms are also very spacious, with a separate bedroom and living area. All bedrooms feature hardwood flooring.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; room service; babysitting; laundry service/dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
