Ask the K7 team what to do on a cold evening in Oslo, and the answer is often the same: go to the sauna. Oslo has floating saunas right on the fjord in the city centre, a short walk from the hotel. Here are two favourites from our staff, in their own words.

Sukkerbiten: a sauna village next to the Munch museum

See you at Sukkerbiten! Oslo’s new masterpiece. This large sauna is in a class of its own. Sukkerbiten combines stylish architecture with universal design, so that even more people can use the saunas.

Eneo, K7 Hotel Oslo

The sauna Eneo is talking about is Trosten. It opened in spring 2024 and was designed by estudio Herreros, the same architects who designed the Munch museum next door. Trosten has ramps and room for wheelchairs.

Sukkerbiten has 14 saunas run by Oslo Badstuforening. A ticket for the shared sauna gives you access to the whole sauna village, not just one sauna. It costs NOK 250 if you are not a member. Open from 7 am to 11 pm.
