Just a 10-minute walk from Karl Johan, Oslo's main street, you'll find Anker. With a bus stop, tram stop and taxi stand right outside the door. From the Central Train Station Square take tram numbers: 12, 13 and 17, as well as bus numbers: 30, and 31. Get off at Hausmannsgata stop. Twenty minutes by Airport Express Train from Gardermoen Airport to the Central Train Station Square. The hotel is 5 kilometers from Vippetangen, the ferry pier for DFDS and Stena Line. As you approach Oslo from the E18, follow signs for Gjøvik (4). After passing the 'Radisson SAS', take a left turn in the first traffic circle/roundabout. At the first traffic lights take a right turn onto Christian Krogh's street. Follow this street till the end - you'll see Anker Hotel straight ahead. The hostel is 20 metres from the hotel.
