"The Blue and the Green and the City in Between" is the motto of Oslo, where 94 percent of its residents live near a park or a green space. Two thirds of Oslo is in protected forest, encouraging residents to embrace the environment around them.

Scandic Byporten is one of Oslo's modern eco-friendly hotels with a focus on sustainable practices for its guests.

Eco-friendly foodies rejoice – the breakfast menu includes organic products to support agriculture and reduce the use of pesticides.

Likewise, the hotel's passion for sustainable action continues by deriving electricity from wind and hydro power, decreasing pollution and helping to fight climate change.
