We had a great stay at the hotel the room with spacious, clean and modern. We arrived early and the hotel let us check in early which was great!

Staff were all friendly. Location is great, 10minutes walk to the main train station and on one of the main streets in the city.

Room layout was poor, meaning two people with a case each will not enjoy the room at all... more like playing tetris from the inside. Had to climb over the bed to get to the other side due to duct at floor level on the far side of the bed. Hopefully other rooms in hotel are not as bad as 313.

Lovely, clean, comfortable hotel centrally located in Oslo. Would definitely recommend staying if you're here for a break. Staff are fantastic and I want to make special mention of Ramzes who helped me out when I checked in. I was having issues with my phone and needed to book rail tickets to Sweden but Ramzes was amazing and helped me get these booked.
These tickets had to be booked there and then from my perspective and he simply translated for me and took me through the whole process.
Excellent customer service and it helped me out immensely. Not only this but three days later, not only did Ramzes recognise me when I came back, but also remembered my name!
That is a sign of someone who is excellent at their job and his welcoming nature makes you feel at home. Thank you Ramzes, you really made my stay at Scandec Karl Johan very enjoyable

Friendly staff and great location

This hotel has very friendly and helpful staff. The location is superb and the coffee in the lounge was appreciated. Breakfast was pleasant.
I understand this isn’t a five star hotel and we didn’t need luxury as we were basically there to sleep and shower, however, the room was a little tired. There was a huge stain on the carpet by the bed and the toilet seat was broken. We were only there one night so it served our needs but these things would bother some people.
The left baggage room was our of sight of reception and left unlocked as there had been a problem that day. Our belongings were fine but, again, this would bother many people

Overall a Disappointing experience

We booked this hotel along side others in the chain.for.our mini scandi tour and this has been the wordt experience i have ever had in a hotel. The air conditioning did not work and we were informed that it didn't work anywhere in the hotel therefore they eouldnt be changing the room so we had.to lrave window open except the kitchen fan equipment was outside our room so very noisy. Also the safe didn't work andwe had passports and medication thay needed to be secured. Maintenance chap tried to fix it but to no avail. Reception told.us that they couldnt give us a different room again as they didnt know which rooms had working safes were working so we could out it in their safe. It transpired to trying to collect the items one evenig they dod not have a safe and it was placed in a drawer! Took a while for night receptionist to locate it much to my terror. It transpires that the hotel is due to undergo renovations which are clearly overdue. Most expensive room on our trip and the smallest and least functional. Now at the scandi crown in gotteburg and the difference is nght and day thank god.
I would like to say that the only redeeming part of our stay was the catering staff for the breakfast buffet were lovely and very accommodating. Food was very good.

Jeg har boet på Scandic rundt omkring mange gange og har hvergang fået ‘value for money’, men denne gang gik det (helt) galt.
- uforskammet/negativ betjening ved ankomst.
- tv’et på værelset virkede ikke
- med besvær fik jeg et nyt værelse, hvor læselampen ikke virkede
- sur og tvær receptionist ved afrejse (samme som ved ankomst)
- kuffertrummet var fyldt ca 1,5 meter i højden med kufferter/tasker smidt ind (bogstavelig talt), da jeg hentede min kuffert. Da jeg bad receptionisten om hjælp, svarede hun med er spørgsmål om, hvad jeg havde tænkt, hun skulle gøre. Og så orienterede hun mig om, at jeg kun måtte tage min egen kuffert (!). Da jeg endelig fik gravet min kuffert frem, havde den fået en grim bule, hvilket fik receptionisten til at trække på skuldrene og gå.
Måske virker de enkelte episoder som små, men tilsammen og med uprofessionel, uforskammet betjening var mit ophold ganske enkelt et mareridt.

Hotellet ligger centralt i Oslo op ad Karl Johans gate.
Værelset var OK, dog ingen klima, så der var 40 grader. Vinduet kunne åbnes, men så fik vi lyden af en ventilator i stedet. 📣Sengen stod op ad væggene ved vinduet og derfor kunne man kun “natpissa”ved at kravle over sin partner. 😄
Men hotellet var godt til prisen👏

Otroligt mycket oväsen från gatan utanför.
Där fanns ett kareokeställe som körde på till sent på natten och avslutade med ett crescendo. Sen när alla nattsuddare skrikande begav sig hemåt så passerade hotellet. När lugnet äntligen infann sig så kom sopbilar och hämtade/tömde containers utanför hotellet. Rummet var dessutom så litet att man knappt ta sig förbi sängen för att lägga sig på andra sidan sängen. Det positiva var personal och frukost som var riktigt bra.

Praktisk beliggenhet og lett å sjekke inn. Den var nesten nabo til en karaokebar (åpen fra 19-03) for de som liker det. Det var alltid rolig da vi var der. Hørte ikke de i naborommet eller støy utenfra.

Vennlig personale. Rommet var passe stort for oss to. Ingen fin utsikt, men det var heller ikke et mål. Mulighet for litt lufting og mulighet for å styre varme på ovn selv var bra. Senga var god å ligge i. Akkurat passe myk med gode fjører. Litt kort om man er høy, tror jeg, men passet oss fint da vi er små uansett. Pent lite bad med hårføner og ok dusj. Rommet hadde en safe og en skuff under senga for klær. Var også kleshengere til å henge opp klær.

Var ikke 100% rent da jeg så et par små hår i dusjen før vi hadde brukt den. Ellers rent. Kun et nattbord var litt kjipt og tv-en skrudde seg av av og til imens vi så på den. Ingen kjøleskap.

Vi tok med frokost inkludert. De hadde speilegg, eggerøre, bønner i rød saus, små pølser, enkel salat (salatblad, cherrytomat og paprika). Veldig god honningmelon! Diverse brød og rundstykker. Gode alle de vi prøvde. Var enkel pålegg til. Noen ulike oster og skinke. De hadde et par bakevarer - croissant og små versjoner av pain au chocolat. De hadde også yoghurt med en del ulike varianter av muesli eller annen enkel frokostblanding. Var en kaffeautomat med standard utvalg, melk og juice. Vann med sitron. (Dette er det jeg husker. Mulig det var andre ting også. Men det var mer enn bra nok for oss i hvert fall.)

Skuffet over størrelsen på rommet. Hadde bestilt standard rom og trodde det var gjort en feil. Men fikk svar at standardrommene deres var så små og at de var vanlig at folk reagerte på dette.
Rommet, spesielt badet var slitt, med sprukne fliser, løse deler på innredning og dusjoppheng. Det var generelt ganske møkkete også. Frister ikke å komme tilbake til dette hotellet.
Synd. For beliggenheten er bra.
