Scandic will take over the hotel on September 1, 2016 and subsequently begin the renovation, which will be carried out in close cooperation with the property owner and take into account the hotel’s history and uniqueness. The hotel will remain open during the renovation, which is scheduled for completion by autumn 2017. The renovated hotel area is projected to be 20,000 m² with 390 rooms and extensive dining and meeting facilities. The hotel will in conjunction with the renovation also be extended with more rooms and then become Bergen’s largest hotel.
