Veidekke: To build a Hoxton hotel in Oslo

Møller Eiendom and AB Invest (Buchardt) have commissioned Veidekke to build a new hotel near the government quarter in the center of Oslo. The contract is a collaborative contract worth approximately NOK 350 million excluding VAT.

"We are proud to be chosen to build this hotel, which will be completely unique and will have a concept we do not currently have in Oslo. Both the design and the location make this an important addition to the city. We are now looking forward to working closely with Møller Eiendom, AB Invest and Hoxton on the construction work," says Morten Barreth, Head of Department at Veidekke Bygg Oslo.

 

The new hotel will be almost 8,000 m2 spread over nine floors above ground and two basement floors, while the outdoor areas will face the upcoming government park. The hotel will have 152 rooms, meeting rooms, a gym, a bar and restaurants. It will become part of the rapidly growing Hoxton family with popular hotels in London, Paris, Berlin, Barcelona and Los Angeles, among others.

 

"We are experiencing a good climate of cooperation and a common understanding to deliver a building that meets high standards for quality, price and functionality. The Hoxton Oslo is an ambitious project that will add a new and vibrant meeting point to the city – and with Veidekke on board, we have great faith that the vision will be realized, says Project Developer Gunnar Oveland at AB Invest.

 

Construction work will start in a couple of weeks with a planned handover in the fall of 2027. Read more about the project here.

The contract will be included in Veidekke’s order backlog for the fourth quarter of 2025.
