Top Karl Johan Gate Hotel Reviews

Comfort Hotel Karl Johan

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful hotel. Breakfast spread was great, and they have a gym onsite. Special shout out to Maria at the front desk. She truly embodies excellent customer experience. On my last day I had an early checkout and she scrambled to help me create a breakfast bag with such joy and helpfulness. She made my stay memorable. Only minor con about the hotel was no kettle in the room but there's a hot water dispenser on first floor, so it's not an issue. There's also no self service onsite laundry. Otherwise, I highly recommend this place."

Comfort Hotel Xpress Central Station

8/10 Good

"This is a basic hotel in a great, central location. The staff are friendly and there's a nice lounge where you can enjoy a drink. The rooms are small and comfortable, with only a few hooks for hanging clothes. Recommended for a short stay in the heart of the city."

Comfort Hotel Xpress Youngstorget

10/10 Excellent

"Localisation idéale, tout était parfait."

Scandic St Olavs Plass

10/10 Excellent

"No kettle/fridge/microwave in the room, not like in Canada. Room was clean, beds are extremely comfortable, helpful stuff and amazing breakfast which exceeded our expectations. We didn’t use their parking (no car), but hotel itself is in the city centre, 10-15 minutes by walk to most touristic places and close to amazing shops and restaurants."
