"The Karl Johan is a clean well run boutique hotel in an excellent location in Oslo."

9.0

The location was perfect. The room was small but efficient. The shower was terrific. Breakfast was comfortable with a good selection.

I would have liked better coffee. Those machines remind me of airport lounges and the coffee is sub-par.

"Historic building, hotel in a fantastic location. Delicious breakfast. Comfortable bedrooms."

8.0

Location was excellent and we could walk to many of the activities/attractions we wanted to visit and/or get local transport as needed. We travelled to and from the airport by train and walked 10 minutes from Nationaltheatret, the station close to the hotel. Flytoget recommended over the cheaper commuter service as the later was very crowded. Breakfast was delicious.

There was a strike involving hotel workers so rooms were not cleaned during our short stay. We could request clean towels at reception. This was a minor inconvenience.

On a pedestrian walking street, across from a beautiful park, the location was great. The building has old world charm but modern and stylish amenities. The breakfast was exceptional; the staff friendly and courteous.

Can't think of anything.

"Excelente ubicación, reservé una habitación pero me dieron otra totalmente diferente y no me gusto."

7.0

NO limpiaron la habitación porque el personal estaba en huelga, el hotel debió haber previsto eso o en todo caso hacer un descuento porque el precio por el cual pague era habitación CON LIMPIEZA y NO limpiaron la habitación en los 3 días. Adicionalmente reservé una habitación y me dieron otra totalmente diferente, me explicaron que me habían dado una mejor pero a mi no me pareció, en todo caso no me gusto, esperaba la habitación que había reservado según las Fotos. Llegar al Gimnasio es realmente complicado.
