Radisson RED Oslo Økern
Lørenfaret 3, 0585 Oslo, Norge 2 hours
Take the elevator to the 12th floor at Økern. You get a killer view of the city and the fjord, surrounded by colorful street art. It feels modern and urban, but without being stiff or posh. Works just as well for a quiet chat as it does for a night out.
Why it works
The view keeps the conversation going if there's a lull, and the vibe is cool enough to make you feel like you've picked a great spot.
What to order
Grab one of the signature cocktails and snag a spot by the window before the sun goes down.
Best time to go
Thursday or Friday evening.
What it costs
350–500 NOK
