Radisson Blu Bryggen, Dreggsallmenningen 1, 5003 Bergen
The Radisson Blu Royal Hotel is nestled next to Bryggen, the city’s historic wharf area – one of Norway’s most popular attractions and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Bryggen is testament to Bergen’s important role as a port during the days of the Hanseatic League’s trade empire. The hotel sits next to a charming row of traditional, colorful wooden buildings lining the old pier, with beautiful views over the marina. .

About Bergen
Founded more than 900 years ago, Bergen has roots to the Viking Age and beyond. As one of the main offices of the Hanseatic League, Bergen was for several hundred years the centre of prosperous trade between Norway and the rest of Europe. Bryggen, («The Hanseatic Wharf») is the most obvious remnant from this time, and is today home to many of the city’s restaurants, pubs, craft shops and historical museums.
Bergen is famous for the seven mountains surrounding the city centre, the Hanseatic Wharf, the fish market, and one of Norway’s biggest cultural events, the Bergen International Festival, which is held there each year.
