About Britannia Hotel

Britannia Hotel has been part of Trondheim since 1870. For generations, it has been a setting for landmark occasions, memorable dining, important meetings and lasting memories. Following an extensive three-year restoration, the hotel reopened its doors on 1 April 2019.

At the heart of Britannia’s renaissance is Odd Reitan’s vision of creating an international luxury hotel in Trondheim, defined by uncompromising quality and exceptional hospitality. Today, Britannia is a destination in its own right, welcoming both international travellers and the people of Trondheim.

The hotel features 224 rooms and suites, six restaurants and bars, Spa & Fitness, and extensive facilities for meetings, conferences, celebrations and events. From Palmehaven and the Michelin-starred Speilsalen to Brasserie Britannia, Jonathan Grill, Vinbaren and Britannia Bar, the hotel brings together a remarkable range of experiences under one roof.

Britannia Hotel is a member of The Leading Hotels of the World, a global collection of some of the world’s finest independent hotels. Membership reflects rigorous quality standards and exacting expectations across every aspect of the guest journey, from the first welcome to the moment of departure.
