Last year I (took) a train trip to Oslo with DB. The wifi was excellent. Both my mobile phone and my laptop could connect to the internet quickly and flexibly. The seats were very comfortable and clean. The service was very friendly. The toilets were very clean and tidy. There was no need to change trains and we arrived in Oslo on time. However, the price was very high, but for the trip it was still pretty good value. I would only recommend it if you are willing to pay the price you need.

I travelled by train from Hamburg to Oslo, and I had both positive and negative experiences. First of all, I have to say that there was very good wifi on the train and that you could use it without any problems. The punctuality of the train was also very good. I arrived at my destination with just a few minutes delay. The train also left on time. The only negative thing about this trip was that there were quite a few dirty seats. This means that the cleanliness was not particularly good in some places. The price for this train journey was also very good, which is why I can only recommend this train journey.

As I recently had to travel from Hamburg to Oslo on business, I decided to take the train. This was a very good decision as the train was on time, comfortable and the staff were very friendly.

I recently travelled from Hamburg to Oslo by train. The price of the train ticket turned out to be comparatively high, and it was only afterwards that I realised that a plane ticket would have been cheaper. Despite these price considerations, the train journey was pleasant overall. The staff were friendly and courteous during the journey. In terms of hygiene and comfort, the train journey was positive. The toilets were clean, the seats were comfortable and the train arrived at its destination on time. Particularly noteworthy was the reliable wifi connection on board, which made the journey pleasant. However, several changes spoilt the overall picture, which made the journey somewhat inconvenient. It also turned out that the reservation options were not ideal. Overall, the train journey from Hamburg to Oslo was satisfactory, but with potential for optimised routing and improved reservation options.

The journey from Hamburg to Oslo was amazingly good. The price was very reasonable. It was reasonably priced and inexpensive. In addition, very good attention was paid to hygiene. The toilets and seats were well maintained and hygienic. The seats were also extremely comfortable. This made my journey much easier, as I was able to relax and unwind during the journey. The wifi connection on the train was also efficient and quite fast. However, the train did not arrive in Oslo on time and there were several. This made the journey much more difficult as I was constantly travelling back and forth with my suitcase. Disappointingly, the staff were not friendly and rather ignorant. They did not clarify or try to understand my concerns and interests. But overall it was a great trip as the good points outweigh the bad!

My journey from Hamburg to Oslo was an excellent journey. The price of the ticket was very appealing as I felt it was quite good value for the distance. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They always clarified my concerns and helped me further. The wifi was very efficient and stable. As a result, I was never bored during the journey and was always very productive. I did important work or made calls on my laptop. A lot of attention was paid to hygiene, as the toilets and seats were very hygienic and clean. The seats were also very comfortable and cosy. However, the volume was not adequate and I found the reservation options confusing. The train did not arrive in Oslo on time. But basically it was a great journey!
