You couldn't ask for a better location in Oslo than the Karl Johan Hotel. It's right on the main street and within close walking distance to everything. The hotel is slightly dated, but if you're here to tour and sight see, you probably won't spend much time there anyway. It's clean, the staff are kind and helpful, and the breakfast... More

Location, design, room, wifi, breakfast - everything worked out fine! Nice historical building and right in the center of the City next to nice pubs, the royal castle, Aker Brygge...

Very nice historic hotel in Oslo. With that in mind the rooms are bit small and really small bathrooms. I would recommend this hotel for short stay if you have children. We traveled with our son and managed fine for a weekend. Nice shops and restaurants just outside the hotel. Nice breakfast buffet at the hotel in the mornings.

The hotel is very centrally located for exploring. Shops, bars and restaurants nearby, train station across the road and palace a few minutes walk. The rooms are basic but clean and comfortable.

This is a good Hotel and the location is perfect. Most tourist attractions in a walking distance (we even walked to Vigeland Park ) and Restaurants, Museums, Shops just minutes away from the Hotel.
