Amerikalinjen I Oslo (NO)

Amerikalinjen in Oslo combines historic charm with modern design. Once the headquarters of a shipping company, this boutique hotel now offers a unique atmosphere for travelers with a sense of style and history.

Historic flair meets modern design

The building once housed the headquarters of the Amerikalinjen shipping company, which from 1910 to 1995 linked Norway's capital with the United States of America by sea, enabling millions of emigrants and tourists to travel to exciting foreign lands.

This exciting history can be felt throughout the hotel, thanks to the design concept created with great attention to detail. Elements of travel and seafaring can be found in the interior design and characterize the unique flair of the hotel.

Today, the hotel, located right next to Oslo Central Station and the Oslo Opera House, serves travelers from all over the world as the perfect starting point for discovering the Scandinavian city on the Oslo Fjord with its green spaces and rich cultural offerings. This is exactly the target group that Amerikalinjen appeals to: discerning, modern explorers.

The tasteful interior design of the rooms and public areas is a testament to sensitivity and attention to detail, combining modern components and replicas of the maritime past in collaboration with traditional local businesses to create a welcoming, high-quality work of art.

Design, history & modern luxury

The visual identity of the hotel is unique. A consistent line with a high recognition value runs through the entire communication, from the online presence to the "do not disturb" door signs. The color scheme, choice of shapes and wording are more reminiscent of a design studio than a hotel. In this way, the Amerikalinjen skillfully combines a rich history with modern charm, high-quality luxury and a casual attitude to life. For this, the hotel won the 2019 Ahead Award (the global award for hospitality, experience and design) in the Hotel Conversions category and was featured in Time magazine's "The World's 100 Greatest Places" in the September 2019 issue.
