We had a large group of people (around 16) visiting Oslo from China and had to find a big house enough to accommodate everyone.

We found Jakcob’s Villa and had a great time stay in it. The location of the house was very convenient, it situates in a quiet & safe residential area with a bus stop just a minute away from the house. The bus stops by every 10-15mins and it takes you to the downtown Oslo in 5-7mins. The Villa itself was wonderful with a vintage interior décor, and huge backyard garden with lawn furnitures where u can chill & relax while watching the sunset. The house itself was very spacious with a huge dining room and multiple bedrooms & beds upstairs that can easily fit us all comfortably and the balcony upstairs gives u a nice view of the city as well as holmekollen. The highlight for me personally was the piano in the living room J, everyone from the group enjoyed dancing and singing around the piano.

Jakob was very friendly and extremely helpful to make sure our needs were taken care of. Days before our arrival he was checking with us on our accommodation needs such as number & sizes of our beds, how many rooms needed..etc On the day we arrived it was raining and he offered to pick up us and give us umbrellas to use as we weren’t prepared for the rain. The house was neat and clean when we arrived and during our stay he make sure we were comfortable with house setup and was always attentive and quick to respond to us in case of any need and even prepared delicious lunch deliveries.

Jakob also shared us many tips regarding Oslo & Norway, and stories about himself & the house and was genuinely curious getting to know us better. The overall experience was wonderful, and Jakob made it much more than just a great place to stay. I would strongly recommend it to anyone looking for a place in Oslo for a big group or family.
