cozy stay with super helpful staff
My stay at the Scandic Karl Johan Hotel was delightful. The central location made exploring Oslo a breeze, and the breakfast spread was excellent. The staff went above and beyond, especially Ramzes, who helped me with my travel bookings. His attentiveness and friendliness made me feel right at home!
However, the room itself was quite small and could definitely use an update. Though it had all the essentials, the bathroom and carpet felt a bit dated. Opening the window for fresh air meant dealing with some noise from the street.

the showers were a complete hazard, no proper structure at all, it was like a slip-n-slide. Absolutley no upgrade offered despite my insistence. they just laughed as if this was funny. i almost left a glowing review for the staff's charm, but the tiny, cramped room ruined it for me. how hard is it to provide a comfy environment?

The central location made exploring Oslo super easy! Breakfast included a large selection that was great for health-conscious options. But the air conditioning could have worked better. 🌟

The location was perfect for exploring Oslo, especially with my grandchild. We had a fantastic time visiting the nearby parks and attractions. The buffet breakfast was excellent, providing plenty of options to fill our hungry tummies after a long day of sightseeing.
For dads, it would be great if rooms had more storage space.
