Getting to BI and the hotel from Oslo airport, Gardermoen:

  1. When you arrive at the airport, please take the airport train ("Flytoget"-this is the best means of transport from the airport) to the downtown main station ("Oslo Sentralstasjon"). Note that BI does not reimburse taxis from the airport to the city and does not reimburse Uber rides in Oslo. You need to purchase a ticket for the train prior to boarding to facilitate reimbursement. There are ticket machines just outside the barriers before descending to the platform.

  2. From the central station to the hotel, take a taxi, or take the subway ("T-bane") from Jernbanetorget (the subway stop at the central station) to Nydalen. Line 4 (westbound towards Vestli) and line 5 (westbound, called “Ringen” not towards Sognsvann) will take you to Nydalen in 10-15 minutes. The hotel is just to the right of Nydalen's main subway exit, and BI is just in front of it.
