Very disappointed! Locations is great, but that is about it!! Rooms were extremely small... service was horrible, we almost had to beg to check in and to check out... Then the room was extremely noisy, our room (409) was facing the side street (not the main street) and it was like having the disco in your own room, we spent... More

Exceptionally well situated with clean, quiet rooms and an attentive staff. Dora helped us get the exact same room we had 20 years ago when we spent our honeymoon here. What an unexpected delight.. You are close to everything and still so restful.. The breakfast is wonderful as are the staff who quietly make sure everything is "just right"... Highly... More

I have stayed at many hotels around Karl Johan and quality and company travel policy makes it challenging. This how ever is a real and affordable hotel. The rooms have windows and street view plus they are more spacious than other tourist hotel in the area. Breakfast is well sorted with both international and Norwegian specialities. I enjoyed making my... More

This is the second time we have stayed here. This time for 2 nights The receptionists we met were all very friendly and made you feel special. Both the rooms we were given were great - just beware if your room faces Karl Johans Gate or the Grand Hotel - it could be very noisy. The breakfasts were excellent and... More

I stayed at this hotel a while ago, end of December 2012 sadly only for one night between flights. Hotel is conveniently situated only a few minutes’ walk away from the train station up the high street in a very beautiful building. Check-in, check-out was quick and easy despite a very busy time. I requested a quiet room with a... More

This hotel is centrally located in Oslo, a few minutes walk from the the metro from the Airport.(National Theatre) Rooms very clean .Coffee/ tea making facility on the 2nd floor. Breakfasts lovely. What made this hotel stand out for us was the exceptional friendliness and helpfulness of the staff.

We had been recommended this hotel by friends and we were not disappointed. We had a room on the top floor facing the courtyard as we had asked for a quiet room and although one those attic type rooms it was comfortable, spacious enough and quiet. The reception staff were extremely helpful especially the lovely Dora who was a great... More

Plain but airy rooms. Windows to open. Spacious bathroom. OK breakfast. Friendly straff. Honest and good 3 star. Not expensive. A hotel with some memories of good old times. A gorgeous staircase lading to the upper floors. We stayed for two nights, with an open window at night. But no noise Even frem the main Karl Johan street.

BW Karl Johan is located in the absolute centre of Oslo, within walking distance of the central station, where the airport train arrives, and most other sights. There's plenty of restaurants, shopping centres and convenient stores nearby. The hotel itself is clean and tidy, but doesn't offer much more than a room for the night. Breakfast is very average, probably... More
