Radisson SAS Plaza Hotel

If for no other reason, we'd check in here for the panoramic views of the city and the Oslofjord. With an exterior sheathed in blue-tinted glass, and a needle-nosed summit that soars high above everything else in Oslo, this is the tallest building in Norway, and the largest hotel in northern Europe. The hotel struggles to permeate its vast, impersonal interior with a sense of intimacy and individuality. Guests do a lot of high-velocity elevator riding, and stay in hermetically sealed heated or air-conditioned rooms high above the city's commercial core, almost immediately next to the city's bus and railway stations. The high-altitude views are sublime, and the comfortable, well-decorated rooms have flair and original works of art. The bar on the 34th floor (Mon-Sat 4pm-1am) has a panoramic view.
