All 43 rooms at this venerable hotel are spacious. They were decorated and fundamentally
renovated, with fresh beds and furniture, in 2006 following a major fire in the adjacent
building and they've aged well. Those on the 7th (top) floor have huge skylights with
broad city views.
Eating
Trondheim has plenty of lovely cafes for a light meal, coffee and cake. Some stay open at
night and turn into lively pubs. For self-caterers, there's a grand little open-air fruit and veg
market on Torvet each morning.
