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.

Beautiful location set along a beautiful park, 1 block from the harbor. Plenty of dining, shopping & things to do nearby. Staff was super friendly & helpful. I had a Parkview room and didn't really hear any noise even though they set up for the King of Denmark's procession that went right past the hotel!!!

These are budget rooms within the Karl Johans hotel. The FREE breakfast is AMAZING as is the location!!! Walkable to many places! Love it and definitely plan to stay there again.

Auch in einem “budget room “ sollte alles funktionieren. Das Badlicht funktioniert nicht ohne das Hauptlicht mit anzuschalten, was in der Nacht sehr anstrengend war. Schimmel an der Zimmerdecke. Als Budget Kunde kann man nur wählen zwischen einem Zimmer mit Straßen- und Restaurantlärm oder ein Zimmer mit Ausblick auf die Klimaanlagen mit den dazu gehörigen Brummen und Summen. Ich fühlte mich als Mensch zweiter Klasse.
