LEGEND

Oslo's Gold-and-Glass Crown Jewel

LEGEND

Steal away to a stylish stay at THE THIEF, Oslo’s gold-and-glass crown jewel on its city-meets-sea peninsula that has transformed from an islet getaway for local bandits to an ultra-trendy arts district. This luxe Norwegian seaside gem feels like a chic art museum with works from renowned artists such as Jeff Koons and Andy Warhol sharing space with futuristic video art.  If that doesn’t heist your heart, the stylish rooms, nearby beach, rooftop terrace, and pampering spa treatments will.

•    2018 Condé Nast Traveler Gold List and 2017 Readers' Choice Award-Winner
•    All 116 rooms boast exclusive art, private balconies, and floor-to-ceiling windows
•    The incredible spa offers distinctive treatments, saunas, steam rooms, a pool, and a Turkish hammam
•    Enjoy delicious dining, cocktails at the chic bar, and Oslo fjord views from the rooftop terrace
•    Walk to Aker Brygge’s waterfront promenade and the Astrup Fearnley Museum next door
•    THIEF Activities offers classic Norwegian experiences like cross-country skiing and toboggan runs

THE THIEF is not your average art hotel. Its permanent collection was curated by the former director of Norway's National Museum of Art and its lounge hosts concerts, fashion shows, and book launches. The guest experience is equally exceptional. Breathe in the fresh sea air. Take in the stunning fjord views. Work out at the gym. Get a decadent Moroccan clay spa treatment and then dine on fresh catches and weekend brunch buffets. Explore Oslo and make memories no one can take away.
