Depending on which way the joists are running, you could well be splitting that load over quite a few, or maybe just 2. If you can see where the nails/screws are in floorboards, you'll know which way joists run.

Im building a walk In wardrobe.  Can floor joists hold 300kg of ikea wardrobes? Without causing any issues? 
Many thanks my

 

Over what sort of footprint? 300kg over 0.25m² versus 300kg over 2m² are quite different. Un upright piano can weigh 250kg (some can weight in at 400 odd) - but each wheel may only be 62kg odd.
