Hotel Continental

A family-owned grand hotel since 1900, opposite the National Theatre — home to Theatercaféen, a Viennese-style institution where artists, politicians, and everyone else gather, with genuine Munch artworks throughout. Take Theatercaféen for the grand café experience or the Dagligstuen bar for cocktails. Come for a special occasion, or pre-National-Theatre dinner and drinks. It is one of Oslo's most storied addresses — a century-old hotel that has stayed in one family and kept its Viennese café as a true civic institution, with real Munch pieces on the walls. Grand, historic, and woven into the cultural life of the city.
