“The Thief's waterfront quiet”

The Thief is a beautiful dockside Oslo hotel near the water and city center — a big comfortable room, a really good fun spa, a quiet low-tourist pocket with easy shopping and several good restaurants, and hospitable staff. Caveats though: the hotel is small, one guest found the facilities merely three-to-four-star against the rate, and public transport is a short walk away.
