Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The staff was kind, friendly and helpful. Breakfast and supper was great. Awesome coffee and tea. Location excellent and the airport bus stops right outside. Really great value for the price. When going places the staff would answer questions and take their time. Internet worked perfectly. Nice restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance and right outside the door.

The hotel is convienently located in town. It is a bit of a walk from the ferry, but that is generally the case for all hotels in the town due to the new city planning process of putting the transport infrastructure on the edge of the old town. The hotel staff were so helpful. When we told them we had to check out early in the morning to catch an early flight, they arranged to make us a breakfast pack to take with us. They also provide a light supper in the evenings which is actually quite substancial. While in town be sure to visit the cathedral. It is one of the most substantial and impressive structures of its type.

Hotel is five minutes walk from the station and really easy to find. Very friendly staff throughout the hotel. Our room appeared to be adapted for wheelchair uses as had a wooden floor and large wetroom bathroom, with ample room throughout. Settee, chair and table, tea,coffee and pod coffee machine . The day we stayed a complimentary light supper was available with a good choice of food available. Very welcome and a nice touch. Great breakfast buffet too, with loads of choice to suit all tastes. Good location for the shops and cathedral.

Stayed at the Thon Nidaros on our way to & back from a circular Trondheim to Kirkenes cruise. The hotel is located in the centre of Trondheim, within easy reach of tourist sites, restaurants & transport links. Warm, friendly welcome when checking in. On the way out, the receptionist kindly booked a taxi to drop us off at the pier to board our boat, & on our return, recommended somewhere from us to eat. Our rooms, 204 & 320, were clean, spacious & comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. Breakfast is a buffet smorgasbord of food, with something for everyone. The added bonus was the Flybussen, express airport bus, stopped outside the hotel, so we could book online tickets & hop on the next morning. Highly recommended.

Have stayed here before and know it to be friendly and very convenient for the railway station. The breakfast is good and variedand there is a corner devoted to gluten free food, even with a dedicated toaster. The size of the bedroom and the amount of clutter is not very Scandinavian. Very difficult to move around the room with excessive chairs. Must be a nightmare for the poor cleaning staff. Trondheim is a fine city with plenty to see and much history. Good train links north and south. Second-hand shops seem to be good and there is a tram and tram museum that are worth investigating. Pleasant walks at the end of the tram line at Lian.

Very good central location, friendly staff, perfect breakfast, cozy room, pleasant interior. The only thing I didn't appreciate was the coffee maker at breakfast - fortunately there was filter coffee too.

This is a very nice hotel with excellent location. My husband & I stayed here 4 nights. Our room was very comfortable & had a bathtub as well as a separate rain style shower. The breakfast was great with plenty of gluten free selections. On weekday evenings they also serve a free light supper. There was a significant amount of street noise especially on Friday & Saturday nights.

I was traveling with friends and had a single room. It was very small, barely a space for my suitcase on the floor as there was no other space for it. I requested another room and was willing to pay more but none were available. I woke with six spider bites. Makes me wonder about overall cleanliness? The photos on their website make the single rooms appear much more appealing. Breakfast was very good. Good location.

I was supposed to say there for two nights. Unfortunately, dus to delayed flights, I couldn't stay for one night. The room was small, but comfortable. Nice bed, clean room and bathroom. No minibar. The staff is friendly The breakfast is very good with plenty of dishes! I really enjoyed. The only minus was that they didn't want to refund the night I didn't stay, not even partially. I can recommend this place.

With the central location this hotel is a winner even though it is old. The hotel need an upgrade, but it works anyway. Nice people at work, nice and clean rooms. The rooms was a bit tiny, but for one person it would be perfect. We where two and the bed was in the smallest range of beds. The bathroom was so small that the throne was put in a special angle just so it would be possible to sit there.
