Nidaros Pilgrims Centre

Trondheim


Aimed mainly at those who have walked the Pilgrims' Way, this simple guesthouse is a warm and welcoming place for pilgrims and non-pilgrims alike to rest their trail-weary legs. While comfortable, private rooms are spartan, befitting the contemplative nature of a pilgrimage. It's wonderfully central and very close to the cathedral.
