Thon Hotels offers you a “taste of Norway”

Good food is an important ingredient in the recipe for a successful conference, and dinner is often a social highlight of a course, kick-off or conference. That’s why we work hard to ensure that the food we serve is of the highest quality, and our skilled chefs have prepared menus based on local specialties, using delicious Norwegian ingredients.

Infection control measures during food service

  • Mandatory to use a face mask when moving in the conference area (applies to hotels and restaurants in Oslo and Bergen).
  • There are hand disinfection stations at the entrance to the restaurant.
  • Tables are washed and disinfected between each group of guests, and other contact surfaces are cleaned frequently.
  • We ensure that there is a distance of at least 1 metre between each table.
  • Event participants can enjoy lunch service at tables in the restaurant or in their meeting room. Buffet service will be available to groups of more than 50 people.
  • In keeping with the health authorities’ recommendations, we follow strict hygiene measures and procedures for our employees.
 

A great start to the day at Thon Hotels

At Thon Hotels, we know that our guests are keen to enjoy a good breakfast as part of their hotel stay. We also want to ensure the safety of our guests and employees. That’s why we’re introducing new breakfast routines – which facilitate good infection control measures while still offering a wide range of breakfast options.

Breakfast buffet

We’re pleased to re-introduce our tasty breakfast buffet, which features a good selection of cold and hot dishes. Please note that we cannot set up the buffet unless at least 20 guests are staying at the hotel.

Wherever you visit us, rest assured that you will be able to choose from a wide variety of our popular breakfast favourites.

Order from the chef

In selected hotels, our breakfast chef will take your order from the open kitchen. Just say what you want to eat and our chef will put it on your plate.

Here you can choose your favourite dishes from our buffet breakfast – various sandwich toppings, fresh vegetables, and the classic hot dishes such as scrambled eggs, breakfast sausage, bacon and American pancakes.

Pre-portioned bowls of yoghurt, sliced fruit, granola, smoothies and some sweets will also be on offer – so you can easily add to your breakfast plate according to your wishes.

Allergy-adapted selection

If you have any allergies, we will do our very best to assist you in finding good options that fit your needs. Simply inform one of our staff when you arrive in the breakfast room.

Concepts for any event on any scale

To ensure adherence to the guidelines about maintaining a distance of at least 1 metre between each participant, we have adapted our premises and temporarily reduced capacity by 50%. View all our conference facilities here.
