First Hotel Grims Grenka

The first luxury design hotel in Oslo. The 42 rooms and, especially, the 24 suites, offer spectacular space. The modern Nordic style is brought to a new level by the mystique of the Orient in the interiors. Playful light arrangements and colour schemes create an intimate and sensual atmosphere throughout the entire hotel. The rooms are in three different styles; green for summer, blue and white for winter, and red and gold for the mysterious, decadent and sensual way of living. The restaurant boasts Asian fusion cuisine with a new twist. If you just want a lighter snack, the tea and cocktail bar, with emphasis on organic tea and drinks, offers classic lobby food and exclusive caviar. On the stylish roof top lounge you can unwind and self-indulge with a refreshment on a warm summers day, while taking in views of Oslo’s urban jungle. The lounge/nightclub on the first floor will transform Oslo’s nightlife.

Our summer rooms are delicately decorated in green shades, and offer views towards the atrium. These are our smallest rooms, but still very spacious with a minimum of 21 square metres. These rooms really offer peace of mind, as they are serene and quiet, with thick, allergen free carpets. The bed is made from renowned Jensen, for your utmost comfort and 'floats' on soothing light.
