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 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!

Chaos with room assignments
My stay was good. Room was adequate for budget and breakfast was great. However I had a terrible experience during check in. I was given a key to a room that was already occupied and basically walked into someone's belongings (person wasn't there). I turned around w/o touching a thing but I could have easily taken an entire purse and sunglasses which were just lying there. Or worse walk into someone. After that there was a terrible confusion about which room was available for me. I spent the remainer of my stay afraid someone would walk in on me.
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.
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
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.
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.
A lot of noise of some engine all night , couldn’t sleep at all. They must do something with that !!!
Location was perfect ! Atención perfect !
Breakfast great

Great location, staff and amazing breakfast buffet. Room had a serious sanitary malfunction, but staff quickly gave us a new and better room
The location looked okay, but my room was right on top of a restaurant bar with live music. It was very small, and I later found out I had booked a room on the "economy" side of the hotel. It had no A/C, and the air was very stuffy. Did I mention the room was small?
The breakfast was awesome - but given that I left early, I wasn't able to enjoy it on the second day, and I was not allowed a refund. Overall, there are better options in Oslo. Even by Oslo standards, this was expensive.
Good spot for a night or two to explore the city. The breakfast was good with lots of variety. We stayed in a budget room and it was fairly spacious and modern. Paid parking garage is a 5 min walk away.
Easy to check in and out, clean, friendly staff and good breakfast.

To be clear, we stayed on the budget side of the hotel. The rooms were musty, cramped, and noisy. My earplugs were no match for the nightclub thumping away until 3am. Which meant you didn't want to open your window despite the stifling mugginess of the room which was so small you could hardly open your suitcase. On the plus side, the location was excellent and the breakfast was a beautiful smorgasbord. Ten stars for the most beautiful breakfast buffet you can imagine! If you go, don't even consider staying on the budget side. If you complain about your room, they will try to upsell you to the expensive side anyway.
