Excellent breakfast and location.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Great staff. Breakfast was excellent. We were on the “old” side (no air conditioning) but weather in Oslo was very cool and we were fine just leaving the windows open thru the night. Outside temperatures were 52-56 Fahrenheit overnight and at 69-71 during the day. Centrally located property. Would stay there again. Prices in Norway are high for everything so do not be surprised by the sticker shock!

Great location with great breakfast

Very nice hotel on the main road, easy walk to the train station and many restaurants and sites. During a two week trip in Scandinavia, they had the best breakfast spread of all.

Excellent location, good breakfasts and friendly staff. The small rooms on the secondary hotel (not the main one) are very very small, they smell like old wet carpet, humid and the music playing downstairs is not as bad, depending how close you are to the bars.

Since my original room wasn't available, I was upgraded with a renovated room on the 5th floor. Quiet, cozy and comfortable. Staff was accommodating, friendly and courteous.

We had an absolutely lovely time here. The location is very convenient and close to public transportation. It is right across a nice park/green space in the center area of Oslo. The most amazing part of this Hotel was the absolutely phenomenal breakfast! Best breakfast I’ve ever had.. they had anything you could ever want and everything was extremely fresh and delicious.

The location is the best you can ask for. Walk distance to many attractions and the train station. Got upgraded to the main building. Room was clean and comfortable but as usual in EU pretty small, we we’re there for one night so it was perfect. Breakfast was great!! Would choose it again.

Lovely location central to sights and ferries. A budget room here does not have AC and is identified as such in the hotel signs. I thought that was not appropriate. Nice breakfast and good value for downtown Oslo.

Construction started 7am every morning. Music from restaurant next door kept you awake u til 3am. No AC in the room. Location was awesome tho. And so was breakfast.

Stayed in the Economy room(s) side of the hotel- gate 35. Very comfortable, the bed fit two adults well and the comforter (duvets) were exceptional. Breakfast in Norway seems to be an important meal-more so than on the States. That being said, the spread offered each morning at Johan was 5 stars. Honestly I would pay separately to just eat breakfast here

THEe service was great, the room was clean but stinky. Very intense smell, probably from the old carpet
Verified review

8/10 Very good

The staff was fantastic. The facilities on the Karl Johan Hotel (33) side were great but the old part (35) were shabby. The bathroom had some mold and the jazz club downstairs kept me up at night. The room was very small, but worked. Breakfast was fantastic and bed+bedding was quite good. Overall it was a positive experience and considering the comparatively cheap price point for Norway and the most central location possible in the whole city, it was still a win!

Wonderful location

The reception was OK, but won´t hurt to add a bit smile! The room was so hot (30C+), and noises from pubs below made me stay awake until 4 in the morning! I got a warning message from the hotel for the noise, but it would have been better if I was warned before I selected the room! Nevertheless, the breakfast buffét was amazing, definitely a 5-star one!
Verified review

2/10 Poor

Keep in mind there is a remodeling, construction going on outside of the hotel inside an old building down below the guests room. We were not able to relax during the day nor sleep in the morning due to constant loud noises. It looks like this activity has been going on for some time and will be continuing for some time as well. Be aware! The breakfast was great.
