How to get to ESOP

 

From central Oslo to the Department of Economics / ESOP

Subway: Take line 4 (Vestli) westbound or line 5 (Ringen - both directions) to Forskningsparken. Exit the platform on the same side where you arrived, and walk straight until you come to the University. Continue to the second tall (12-story) building, see description above (Location).

Tram: Take line 17 or 18 towards Rikshospitalet, and depart at Universitetet Blindern where you see the tall buildings of the University. The Department is located in the first tall building to the left, see description above (Location).

 

From Gardermoen Airport to the Department of Economics / ESOP

Take the Airport Express train to the Nationalteateret, then the subway line 6 (Sognsvann) or line 4 (Ringen) or westbound to Forskningsparken, see description above (Subway). The Airport Express train leaves every 20 minutes, the travel time is 25 minutes.

Ask for a fixed price when starting the trip. However, we strongly recommend that you take the Airport Express train to Oslo as It is both cheaper and faster, and then a taxi from there to the Department.

The fastest way to get from the airport to Scandic Holberg Hotel is to take the Airport Express train to Nationaltheatret (National Theatre). The Airport Express train leaves every 20 minutes, the travel time is 25 minutes. When you get to Nationaltheatret station, walk along Frederiks gate past the Royal Palace. Turn left at the second exit after passing the royal palace and follow the tram line for approximate 250 metres, and you will see the hotel straight ahead on the corner of the square. The address is Holbergs plass 1 and the full walk takes about 8 minutes.

An alternative if you are less keen on walking is to take the airport shuttle bus to Radisson Blu Scandinavia Hotel. It leaves from platform 11 at the airport. This will take about 50 minutes. When you get to Radisson SAS Scandinavia Hotel, Scandic Holberg Hotel is just across the square.

Ask for a fixed price when starting the trip. However, we strongly recommend that you take the Airport Express train or shuttle bus to Oslo as it is both cheaper and faster.

 

From Scandic Holberg Hotel to the Department of Economics / ESOP

1. Ask in the hotel reception where you can buy a tram ticket, and where the tram line for tram 17 or 18 is, direction north (toward Rikshospitalet)

2. The Tram leaves just outside your hotel. Both line 17 and 18 are OK; they go in the same direction.

3. After 9 minutes, exit at station Universitetet Blindern.

4. Then, on the left, you have two tall buildings. Our building is the one to the left.

5. The reception is on the 12th floor (Department of Economics)  and the 10th floor (ESOP).
