What a steal! Our two-night stay at The Thief in Oslo was nothing short of sensational. From the moment we stepped into the sleek, art-filled lobby, we knew we were in for something special. This hotel oozes cool, with thoughtful design touches everywhere — think luxury with a playful twist. Our room was stylish, spacious, and ridiculously comfortable (seriously, we contemplated stealing the bed). The views over the Oslofjord were the cherry on top. And can we talk about the breakfast? It was next level — fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented, with enough options to keep even the pickiest foodie happy. The staff? Absolutely wonderful — warm, attentive, and always ready with a smile or a recommendation. Every detail felt considered, from the in-room amenities to the cosy rooftop bar. Worth every penny, and we’re already planning our return visit!

Lovely location, property is well designed but needs updating in its overall conditions i.e grouting in bathrooms and fixtures. Overall staff pleasant, but during my stay in my opinion only one member of the front reception desk delivered a 5* service with a smile. The others lacking- apologies I didn't get her name.

After returning late from dinner the suite heater was not working properly and bright chandelier light above bed had no switch to turn it off. After sending engineer to room and after half hour he could not turn off, then we had to sleep in another because to late to repack everything. Next day they committed to fix heater and light. They had 2 people go into ceiling to disconnect light and they left ceiling and insulation particles all over bed which we found ob return along with the suite not serviced. I had to call housekeeping to clean room and mess left by engineers interfering with only rest time before dinner. The hallways have foul odor from some sort of wood finishing on the wall. It smelled toxic. They left hotel vouchers equivalent of $40 USA for all the issues. They did not fix heat in room, but very loud portable heating in the living room . I explained this did not solve heat issue bedroom, then they suggest wr sleep in another room 5 floors away. They did comp dinner after I laughed at $40 voucher, but i after i suggested it. So pathetic that they did not pick up 1 bottle of wine we had at dinner, but it was typical of their lack of customer service and awareness

Our stay at The Thief in Oslo was wonderful! From the moment we arrived, the reception was warm and welcoming, and we were genuinely touched by the thoughtful little treats and gifts left in our room since we were celebrating our birthdays and anniversaries. A special thank you to the Guest Relations team at the hotel for making our experience so incredible. The room amenities were great, and we especially loved the breakfast. A heartfelt thanks to Marta, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a truly amazing experience. Her exceptional service, along with the entire Guest Relations team, Ida-Sofie, Thea and everyone at the front desk, made us feel so welcomed and cared for. We are immensely grateful for such a delightful stay and can’t wait to return!
