Been here?
Sjølyst Bobilparkering is a large paved motorhome area with a convenient bus connection to Oslo and the sculpture park. It offers 24-hour bookings, water and waste facilities, showers, toilets and electricity connections, although recent reports mention outages and poor maintenance. The area is sloping and parking is chaotic, with heavy road noise and too few, often cold sanitary facilities. The latest reported price is 650 Kr for one day with electricity.

Excellent location for reaching the city by bicycle. Several pitches with electricity and water. A perfect choice for visiting Oslo. Do not stop at the beginning; go all the way to the back of the area.Translating
It is right next to the road, so it is very noisy. The showers are cold and the toilets very cramped, but it is 15 minutes by bus to Oslo, which is very convenient.Translating
Pros: huge, level car park, with multiple electricity and water connections everywhere, close to Skøyen station (all the lines passing there get you to the centre in four minutes). Cons: chaotic parking; park wherever and however you can. The waste-disposal facilities are disgusting, and the price is 650 NOK for 24 hours, but there being no alternatives… Would I return? Yes.Translating
Very noisy because of the motorway. The sanitary facilities were clean but far too few for the number of vehicles parked. This is really a backup option if there is nothing else.Translating
This is the only car park where campers are allowed, at a price that is… let us say reasonable: 650 kroner for one day with electricity, if you are lucky enough to find a free socket. All the other city car parks have crazy prices for 24 hours: 2,700 kroner with EasyPark and 3,150 kroner with APCOA Flow!Translating
The location is the only positive thing about this place. It takes 15 minutes to reach the city by bicycle. The sanitary facilities are a complete disaster. No hot water, either for showering or washing dishes. Partial power outages. The disposal station and sanitary facilities are completely filthy.Translating
The location is the major advantage. The Ruter app makes it easy to get into the city by bus; it leaves from outside the site. Luckily, we were by the water, but €60 is still too much—it is Oslo, after all. There are too few sanitary facilities for the ongoing operation, and toilet paper was missing several times. Overall, it is still the best address in Oslo!
Excellent location, easy to access, and quick to reach the city by bicycle. Small shop with useful motorhome accessories. But the toilet disposal and sanitary facilities are a disaster. The electricity connections and the signage for rubbish and grey-water disposal are also inadequate. Grey water is to the left behind the toilet, before the bridge—also very unpleasant.Translating

Conveniently located for visiting Oslo by bicycle. There is no order at the site and no visible division of pitches. Nobody checks the spacing. If you leave four metres to your neighbour, someone will certainly squeeze into it. I last saw electrical connections like these years ago in Albania and Bosnia. In the EU, an authority would probably shut down the installation.Translating
Thanks to the site manager. We were here today. The cost was approximately €60 per 24 hours. The price includes the pitch, electricity, access to the toilet and shower, and water services. You can get the access codes for the toilet and shower by asking at the office; at least today, they were free of charge. We can certainly recommend this place. A bus to the city centre leaves from just outside.Translating
An ideal place to visit the city. If you go past the first lot of parking on the right and over a small bridge, you can park even further away from the noisy road. Access to grey- and black-water emptying is not very clear; you have to drive through between parked cars.Translating
A place at the harbour, but suitable for exploring Oslo. The other two places are reserved for locals in good weather from Thursday to Saturday, so this is an alternative. It is not a classic campsite, but one day is fine. We have our own home with us, after all. I cannot agree with the comments about the toilets and showers. Everything is clean. At 11:30 p.m., the water was not warm—unfortunate.Translating
An unpretentious place. The shop staff were helpful. Electricity and water services are available here and there, rather improvised. Cold showers and very poor toilets in containers. Convenient for the centre by bus. Expensive for what is offered.Translating
Ideal for us. Fifteen minutes by bicycle on a safe cycle path directly into the city. The site was clean, the showers (four) were okay, but there were too few toilets (two). Electricity is free, and water is available directly at or near the pitch. If you do not like motorway noise, simply drive to the second part of the site over the bridge; it is quieter there. The disposal station is not clean, but I am not here to eat.Translating
We spent two nights safely. Saturday night was very noisy. The toilets are too cramped.Translating
Definitely ideal for visiting the city. Norway is expensive, and Oslo is even more expensive. Against this background, 650 NOK seems normal. The nearby motorway can clearly be heard as a constant hum. Traffic also decreases noticeably at night. We slept relatively well. The site was clean. The sanitary facilities and showers were okay, but nothing more. However, if around 80 vehicles are using too few showers and toilets, I do not expect medical-grade cleanliness.Translating
Good place for a day in Oslo. Spacious car park; it is open as long as the barrier is not closed. Twelve minutes by public transport to the centre.Translating
Convenient for visiting the city, but the facilities are definitely not up to the price paid!Translating
Apart from this place, there are only two more campsites for sightseeing in Oslo. The price is far too high. The location is its main attraction, and that is the only star! Directly beside the cycle path into the city. It is noisy here. The showers are okay, with warm water and good pressure. Plenty of space, and it is not yet full even in the evening. Drive over the narrow bridge; the payment machine is there. Shower and toilet codes are available in the shop.Translating
NO. Thanks. Way too expensive for a car park.Translating
If you have the option of staying at the very back of the motorhome area, this is a good choice for visiting Oslo by bicycle.
650 NOK for 24 hours; considering the parking prices in the city, it is okay. Payment by credit card only. With luck, electricity is available from the pitch, or with an extremely long cable. Showers and toilets are unacceptable! It looks as if they are NEVER cleaned. The disposal area is correspondingly catastrophic. You can hear the E18. By bus, the two of us reached the city centre for 92 NOK. Forty-five minutes on foot.
This site is unworthy of Norway and Oslo. For over €60, you get showers standing in water because the drain appears to be blocked, rubbish disposal directly at the toilet-emptying point under the tap, and generally the feeling that nothing here is maintained or cared for. Unfortunately, I cannot upload the photos I took.
A nightmare for 650 NOK per 24 hours! Rubbish all over the parking area, dirty showers and shower curtains, and clogged sink drains. We only received the codes for the toilets and showers after explicitly asking for them. Very rude staff. I do not recommend it!
Expensive place to stay, and noisy because it is right by a major road. Forty-minute walk to the centre. Showers and toilets are not kept clean, but hot water is included in the price. Rubbish bins were overflowing. Considering the amount charged, we thought the place would be cleaner.
This place has two sides. The location is unbeatable, about 4 km by bicycle into the city centre, with excellent cycle paths. The site has shortcomings. One of the two registration machines did not work. You are lucky if a socket is free and your cable is long enough. There is no rubbish disposal. That would be okay if this had not been the most expensive motorhome pitch we have ever had.
The location is great, only 15 minutes by bicycle to the city centre. Payment by card at the machine. Toilets and showers are in containers; you get the code when registering. The toilets are small but clean, the showers are not. We could use only one shower with the code. We spent two nights here, which were quiet despite the nearby motorway, except once at 6:00 when cars drove past with loud music.
Well located for the city centre, but there is road noise and the showers are in mediocre condition and not very clean. Nevertheless, they are included in the price, as are the electricity services. During our three nights there, we were woken by music in the middle of the night. Despite this, considering the price and services, it remains a good deal.
Do not try to enter this car park if you only need services. It is closed with a barrier and you will have trouble exiting.
Out of season, we were still charged 650 Norwegian kroner for one night. The location is excellent, close to public transport, but otherwise it is just a completely sunny asphalt lot that was also used to store boats and building materials. It was also noisy because it is close to busy roads.
We visited this site for one night. Boats are normally stored here. In summer, however, it is opened for motorhomes. It is okay overall, just quite noisy because of road traffic. I also find the price of 650 NOK per 24 hours rather expensive. But for exploring Oslo, we could overlook that when considering the other parking prices.
Use your credit card in the machine. This works. Regular bank cards are not accepted! The toilets were clean. The code can be provided in the small shop, the small red building. A shower key can be purchased there too. There is some noise from the main road, but it is not too bad. The parking area is quite big, and there are water and power outlets at every other space. If you arrive at a reasonable time, you will be fine.
Excellent stopping area opposite a delightful marina. Twenty-four hours for about €55. Electricity, drinking water, grey-water and chemical-toilet disposal. Two bus stops from the centre; the ticket is paid for via the Ruter app on your phone.
I have read your comments and would like to point out that Bogstad Camping Oslo, booked online two days in advance, cost us 700 NOK (asphalt pitch with electricity, water and disposal on site), or possibly less depending on your requirements. The sanitary block is luxurious and clean, there is no noise at night, and bus 42 stops right outside the campsite. Compare carefully, and do not complain.
Great location! There are currently two areas for parking. One is along the harbour, turning right after passing the payment machine, or go straight across a small bridge to a second area, where the camp shop is. The highway noise is not bad. Plenty of places to park, and the toilets and showers are fine.
After trying four or five of the suggested car parks, we ended up here. The price is fairly high, but for 24 hours we had enough time to visit Oslo, especially the sculpture park. Considering the number of hours, it is better than car parks charging €6 per hour and allowing a maximum of five hours. We stayed 6.5 hours in total, including the park, travelling there by bicycle.
Alternative car park if the large car park near the city is full. Great sunset. Unfortunately, quite a lot of rubbish.
The gravel plot closer to the city is unfortunately closed because luxury apartments are being built. So we parked here. It is a gravel area next to the parking area, with access from the car park. Quiet place, a bit of a walk into town, but with an amazing view of the town. There is a local supermarket within walking distance, so it is very convenient.
