About
Radisson Blu Royal Garden is set directly on the banks of the river Nidelven at Kjøpmannsgata, with the Nidaros Cathedral and the colourful wharves of Bakklandet a short walk across the Old Town Bridge. The hotel's sauna and small indoor swimming pool are tucked into a basement wellness area — not the largest spa in Trondheim, but a quiet, well-kept room that most guests have nearly to themselves, especially after breakfast hours.
The sauna at Radisson Blu Royal Garden is a standard electric unit paired with the pool, showers, and a 24-hour fitness centre. Because the facility caters only to in-house guests it rarely feels busy, and the sauna-pool-shower rhythm is complete enough for a proper wind-down after a day of walking Trondheim's cobbled streets or a business meeting in the connected conference wings. The river-facing location means you can open a window back in the room and hear the Nidelven run.
For a practical, stay-and-soak option in Trondheim with a rare hotel pool alongside the sauna, Radisson Blu Royal Garden is a dependable central pick.
