Took the train in and out of Oslo Sentral last week and it was a quick and easy experience. The local commuter train from the airport took 25 minutes and it was easy. On the train out, leveraged the grocery store, restaurant on the upper level, and coffee shops before heading on my long distance train out of Oslo. The train station was orderly and uniformed staff were available to help. read more

The Oslo Sentralstasjon is the train station in the center of the city. If you're planning to take public transit or travel throughout the country, with Oslo en route, you will make a stop or start or end here at Oslo Sentralstasjon. I was so impressed by this train station, reminding me that America once again lags in public transit systems. I recommend getting an accommodation walking distance to the Oslo sentralstasjon if you're visiting and planning to travel throughout the country. My experience here every time was pleasant. I first arrived to this station from the airport, taking a dedicated train service that gets you directly from the Oslo airport to here. Then I had to visit the train station again when I was traveling westward from Oslo. Make it a point to be nearby this train station for your trip planning. The train station is very clean and easy to navigate. There are signs everywhere of train departure times and locations and it's in English. There were also plenty of places to sit, relax and lots of eateries in the station and nearby. Many hotels are also next to this train station, and there's an area for car pick-up, taxis, etc. I was pleased to have this station so accessible for my Norway vacation, making it easy and pleasant to travel around. read more

This is one of the nicest international airports I've flown into. The construction accents with the Norwegian wood make it very warm and comfortable. There is a relaxed atmosphere that you don't experience at most airports. The shopping is excellent. The food choices are wide, and it doesn't matter which airline you're flying with; everyone is friendly. If you haven't visited Norway, you really should. It's a great country. read more

Oslo Central Station is conveniently located in the middle of Oslo. We took a taxi to the station and were dropped off at the entrance. At 5:30AM some shops are closed but breakfast places are open, for those who want to grab a quick bite to eat before a train ride. The arrivals and departures board is in the middle of the station. It's easy to locate what city you are going to correlations to the track you are suppose to go to. We got there 30 minutes prior to our departure since it's not that big of a station but decent sized. read more

The train station is Oslo is a great hub if you're trying to get to many different cities in Norway. It's also super affordable. The day I took the train there were a lot of train delays and cancellations due to bad weather but the train station handled it super well and I still got to where I needed to go. The tickets are also super flexible if you have to go at a later time. Inside the central station there are a lot of businesses in case you beed a bite to eat, coffee or something to read on the train. Over all I think there's a great selection of food and the ticket prices can't be beat. read more

07-01-2024, My second time in Norway. The Olso Central Station is large with only 2 floors. Very easy to walk around. The current exchange is in the lower level by Studio Johnny, a women's haircut saloon. Push the yellow machine for a number and wait for it to show to exchange your money. Also, persons wearing yellow inside the station are good to ask questions. They speak 4-5 languages, including English. read more

Oslo has a well organized and efficient public transportation system. The Central station has everything from clothing shops to pharmacies, from salons to grocery stores. There is a food court with fancy restaurants and bars on the lowest floor. There are also cheaper options like Burger King on the upper levels. You can also find money exchange stores and tourist information offices. I mean, whatever you need you can find it here. Navigating the station is easy, since everything is labelled. There is a huge monitor displaying the trains and what platform they are departing from. From Central station, you can go to any city in Norway. 4 stars. read more

Located in the heart of Oslo. It's like a mini-city in its own. There is a 3 story shopping center located right next door, it seems to be part of it. Oslo S has co-op which is a French grocery store thou you can find everything here from fruits, snacks, drinks and childcare at a very affordable price. There are also dress shops, perfumes boutique, a 7/11 that serves baked bread and famous Norwegian hot dog for cheap. There are a number of pharmacy too! A Starbucks and a few Norwegian brand coffees. The Nords love their coffee. Above the large sign of departures, there are the ticket machines to purchase your ticket thou preferable its easier to download the Reuter app to buy your ticket for the train. The train is on time, clean and very efficient. The staff on the trains are very helpful if you have questions and they speak English as Oslo is very international. read more

Large train station in downtown Oslo. The train station itself features cafes, restaurants, shops, and places it sit. The station has many automatic stations to buy tickets. Part of the train station has free WiFi. But you can also connect to the WiFi of local businesses like Espresso House. Attached to the station is a shopping mall. Inside the mall is a Telia store that sells SIM cards. The train station also is a main area for all transit in Oslo. It's also surrounded by hotels. Across the street is a 24/7 pharmacy and drug store. read more

Not a bad train station, easy to find the kiosk to pick up our tickets using the pick-up code. The tracks are all listed in numerical order in a row so it's very easy to find even though they don't have all the signs. The one thing I like about it is the ramp going down to the platform versus the typical climbing up the escalator to get to your train, also there is an automated walkway coming up back to the station if you need to get some snacks. The convenience store is located right outside Track 3 so you can grab hot dogs, drinks, croissant, books, magazines, anything for your train ride. Overall pretty good! read more

Aside from charging 20 NOK (approx 2 GBP) for the toilets, I couldn't find any faults with this station. It is clean, has loads of shops, exchange bureau, and cash machines. If you are hungry, you can find something for all budgets, starting from 20 NOK pastries in newspaper shops to fancy restaurants. The stuff is extremely helpful, and I everybody I spoke to spoke English, which is a bonus for travellers. You can leave your stuff in luggage lockers, prices start from 50 NOK. read more

A much bigger train station than I initially expected! Coming into Oslo you can take the airport train into the city and it brings you into the station, so naturally, you get here and get out because you want to get to your destination, but I found myself back here a time or two and realized there is much, much more here than I initially anticipated. First- someone told me that it is a little difficult to understand where the trains where, which I thought was not true. I knew within seconds which track my train was on and found everything with ease. Everything is easily labeled and the staff is very helpful if you have any questions. If you need to use the bathroom you may be out of luck as it costs 20 Kroner to use the restroom- no way around it, unless you go to the Radisson Blu next door like I did- I was not paying to pee, sorry. From the back end, there is an enormous mall that I had no idea about until I stumbled upon it looking for the baggage hold. Tons of shops and places to go whether you're trying to kill time, or your budget. The luggage hold is amazing. You can rent lockers to hold your luggage for you (as long as at some point you return to Oslo). Charges you anywhere from 50 Kroner to 80 depending on the size of your bag. You'll pay the first 24 hours up front, then in order to redeem your bag, you'll have to pay off any balance after that. The station has ATMS. It has coffee shops. It has a place to exchange currency. Hey, they even have a Starbucks. The information centre is connected here as well. There is also a bridge that will take you to Oslo City (the mall). The station is clean. It's busy. And it's safe. This is a great place for all travelers. You should have zero issues here- unless you've got to use the bathroom. read more

This is Oslos central train station. It has a 7-eleven inside, as well as a salon and other eateries. We visited the information booth and got a latte at the local coffee joint so we could use the facilities for free. There is a tiger outside where the free walking tour meets. Great place to meet up if you get lost and you can get a free map from the information booth. read more

'Ello Chaps! Oslo Central Station is, as the name implies, the Central train hub in downtown Oslo. It is a connection point for the FlyToGet express train (with service between downtown and Oslo's main international airport), as well as the various train lines for local and regional services. Despite it's overall small size, there are more than dozen dozen platforms, and many restaurants and shops inside making it a constant buzz of activity. It is located just steps away from Oslo Opera House and many downtown attractions, restaurants, bus line, tram line, etc. Oslo Central has nineteen tracks, thirteen of which have connections through the Oslo Tunnel. The station has two buildings, the original Oslo East building and the newer main building for Oslo Central. Each building houses a large shopping centre. The square in front of the station is called Jernbanetorget. read more

I really loved Oslo. Actually all of Norway. Big fan. Oslo central station was no exception. It was clean, well though out, well appointed (if there is such a thing for a train station) and extremely easy to navigate. They had great storage lockers for luggages as well so you can easily store lots of huge bags in one container. The trains are easy to get to, the platforms are clean, the food options are plenty and times are very accurate. read more

The cleanest, classiest, and most beautiful train station in all of Europe...at least the ones I've been to. Classy bars, shops, and eateries...it feels like a high end mall in America. I didn't even get the feeling there were any pickpockets or con artists around...but do keep an eye out regardless. read more

Yes, it's crowded, but it's super convenient, even with a lot of foods and shopping choices!

Oslo Central is the heart of the city, and probably the entire region, which welcomes everyone that has arrived via train or plane. The interior of the station boasts a variety of fast-casual eateries, restaurants, and shops. This place is always busy, day or night! read more

I would say the coolest train station of all as it has nearly two malls in it. You can do your shopping on your way back home from work and no need to more or less step out to the cold weather. It has supermarkets, all kinds of shops and it also has food stores and cafés. If you are a traveller make sure you get a bit early here cause it is a very crowded station especially on rush hour. It's also quite big meaning you need to check which platform is yours. The table where you can see that reminds me of an airport announcement screen. You can buy your tickets there either from a machine of from the ticket office under the tables. The other good thing about this station is that when you come out you are basically at the heart of Oslo. The main shopping street is next to it and the opera is just behind it. read more

I'm pretty convinced that everything in Norway is at least 10 years ahead of the rest of the world. Higher education is free, mat leaves are 45 weeks - it's no surprise that the transport infrastructure is top notch as well. Oslo Central Station is clean and well-organized. Everything you need available in English will be. Large lockers available at 60NOK per day, perfect for stowing carry-on if you want to roam downtown before your airport transfer. read more

As the name implies, it serves as the main hub for metro and train service here in Oslo, from the airports as well as other major cities in the country. We took the NSB train from the airport here and also used it to take the metro around town a few times. In comparison to other European capitals (i.e. Copenhagen), this train station is not quite up to par in my opinion. It has a new and fairly modern design, but doesn't have much charm or character. There are a few restaurants, a grocery store and a post office, but nothing impressive as far as dining options. There was no obvious help desk to answer general questions as the visitor center is located outside and down many stairs. There was a desk to ask questions regarding NSB tickets specifically, but that was all. The toilets are paytoilets of course and there are people there patrolling to ensure everyone pays the 10 nok to use the toilet. The bathrooms were not even very clean considering the amount they charged to supposedly maintain it. The overall purpose of the train station, to serve as a central hub to get to other places, is met in it's design; but it just doesn't leave me feeling too warm or fuzzy inside and the service could be improved a bit here. read more

Oslo Central station was very clean and easy to navigate. There were a variety of different shops and cafe type places to choose from to grab a snack before or after a trip. The only downfall from my perspective was the bathrooms are not free, which I know is common in Europe, however most people rarely carry change now a days. read more

This is the best train station that I've been to and I've been around Europe. I particularly liked this one because the main hall area where they have all the different trains that are departing etc. is insanely organized and just very high-tech and all around well-designed. It's super easy to find out where you need to go and how you need to get there. The tracks are laid out in a very logical sense that doesn't require you to aimlessly navigate back and forth through tunnels (the Rome train station, if you've been there). There are also A TON of shops within the train station itself and right outside if you need food or anything else. It's located right next to the T-bane as well as some major tram stops which makes it very easy for anyone to move onto their next destination. All in all, I'm giving it the five stars because I think it fulfills the role of a train station in a vastly superior way compared to other train stations in Europe--it's very easy to find out where you need to go, the design of the train station is indeed very sleek, modern, and clean. Tracks are laid out in an organized fashion where you don't feel like you're inefficiently just walking to get to a very poorly laid out track. There are tons of shops so you can kill time/buy food and snacks for your train ride. tldr; super modern train station that is highly easy to navigate read more

A very cozy train station when you are in waiting mood for the next trip you can relax in the setting area near somewhere in the corner.

You can get everything here except the marked arrows can be a bit misleading when it tells you to go up to a stare and it's not there. Just walk around. They have a decent beauty supply store, multiple pharmacies. Food from nice place to quick snack food. Marvaseen (sp?) sells stamps and there's a post box by Flytoget ticket sales by gate13. Buy tram tix for the city at 7/11. Bathrooms cost 20Kr. read more

Clean. A nice variety of shops and services. Relatively easy to negotiate, and good visitor information.
