Nice breakfast smorgasbord.
Sadly, this hotel came up as the best offering in Nuuk. There was no fridge, no kettle, only a single towel and hand towel (or maybe it was the bathmat) for a party of two. On the plus side, the wifi was great and there was a nice Nordic breakfast on the top level, especially the mixed fruit juice/smoothie. I think some work might need to be done to bring it up to speed as Nuuk opens to tourism. Staff were great.

Good but room for improvement
It wasn't clear when we booked the hotel that it was under renovation - it should be when there is noise from 7:00 to after 7:00 in the evening. Check out is at 10:00 so be prepared, seems strange when all the long distance flights are around 13-15 would have been great to have normal check out 11 or 12 as most hotels.
Even though the early check out time they didn’t manage to tidy the room before we came back from an excursion around 16:30 when they very busy in our room.
Additional the cleaners throw out over maps which was on the table.
Filling the buffet at breakfast was very slow had to ask the service to top up on food.
It’s a shame as the service in the restaurant was great and the location downtown is good

Conveniently located, this is a hotel with all the amenities a traveler needs, especially in a place as remote as Nuuk. Including an excellent restaurant on the top floor.

Nicest hotel in Nuuk. Large, clean room. Small bath. Comfy bed. Friendly, helpful staff. Little coffee bar in lobby. Two restaurants with delicious food. Bountiful breakfast buffet. Huge grocery store across the street. Would definitely stay here again.

A Great Stay in Nuuk
I stayed here for three nights after being trapped in Nuuk by a flight cancelation. This is a nice hotel in the heart of downtown Nuuk. The staff, from the front desk to the bar and restaurant, were very pleasant and really accommodating. One woman at the front desk really went above and beyond in liaising with the airline that cancelled my flight. I truly appreciate the effort. I would definitely stay here again.
