THE THIEF

THE THIEF is a hotel at Tjuvholmen in Oslo, on the waterfront, with meeting rooms for 12 to 50 people and event spaces for up to 150 guests. A company can hold a boardroom session, a workshop, a product launch or a dinner under one roof, then add overnight stays and the spa. The hotel opened in 2013 and stands in a district known for contemporary art.

Seminars and company events The hotel designs its meeting rooms for workshops and board meetings, with daylight, art and tailored service. Meeting packages combine a boardroom for the full day with coffee, tea, water, fruit, pastries and snacks, and a two-course lunch of the day. Add-ons include breakfast, a drink and snacks to close the day, and a short spa visit for the group. The team also builds packages with dinner, overnight stays and spa. For launches and larger events, the venue says it has helped international brands run launches, and Fjord has its own roof terrace with views over the city and the sea. Groups of any size can send a request through the hotel's group booking address or the online request form.
