Hotel Continental has been linked to the arts and cultural life in Oslo since actors and artists made Theatercaféen their regular meeting place in the early 1900s. "Take care of the artists," was founder Caroline Boman Hansen's comment at the time. The interest and love of art has been passed down through generations and is reflected throughout the property.
Dette er intet unntak i Continentalsuiten, som er dekorert med fin samtidskunst. Det mest slående verket er den flyttbare kunstveggen malt av den norske kunstneren Sofie Vesterøy. Den er 5 x 3 meter og strekker seg over to etasjer.
The Yamaha grand piano is a work of art in itself. There are only two of its kind in Scandinavia. The other is owned by Benny Anderson of the former pop group ABBA. Behind the piano is a photo by Eivind Lentz. The beautiful collection of photographs in the master bedroom is collected from Featuring Spaces in Oslo. All art and decorations are handpicked by owner Elisabeth C. Brochmann.
The interior design of the Continental Suite was created by renowned British studio G.A Group, known for its work in exclusive hospitality worldwide. Working closely with the hotel's owner, they created one of Scandinavia's most exclusive suites, a space where timeless elegance meets bespoke design. Almost all of the furnishings are custom designed and built specifically for the suite, resulting in a holistic and truly unique experience that reflects Hotel Continental's character and heritage.
