Our guide

Our recommendations

  • The community is very small - contact the synagogue or Chabad house in advance to arrange meals and prayer times.

Stay in the kosher area of Oslo

Oslo does not have one obvious Jewish quarter. Lubavitch of Norway (Chabad house listed on the site) is the anchor - book a hotel within walking distance of it rather than picking a random part of Oslo.

To count as a booking, finish it in the same window after you click - it isn't saved for tomorrow.
