Scandic Go Oslo
Norway's First Scandic Go Launches in Oslo
Scandic Hotels will launch Scandic Go in Norway by converting the existing Scandic Grensen hotel in Oslo into the country's first Scandic Go hotel. By rebranding the centrally located 96-room hotel, Scandic will broaden its offering in Norway to meet the demand in the growing economy segment. The new hotel is expected to open during the first half of 2026.

Scandic Go was introduced as part of the company's long-term growth plan, and now Scandic will launch the brand in Norway. Scandic Grensen in downtown Oslo will be converted into a Scandic Go, offering guests a new type of accommodation that combines smart design and self-service at an attractive price. Scandic Go hotels are designed for the modern traveler looking for an affordable urban option in the heart of the city.
The decision to launch Scandic Go in Norway by converting Scandic Grensen is no coincidence. The hotel's existing infrastructure, design and location make it ideal for a Scandic Go. Before the new hotel opens, it will be updated and adapted to the Scandic Go brand and the guest experience that Scandic Go is known for.
Oslo's most important cultural attractions and buildings are conveniently located near the hotel, and guests will be able to reach popular sights such as Karl Johans gate, the Norwegian Parliament buildings and Oslo Cathedral easily on foot.
When it opens, the new hotel will be certified by the Nordic Swan Ecolabel, just as the majority of Scandic's hotels. Norway's first Scandic Go hotel is scheduled to open during the first half of 2026.
