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.

Just a basic hotel, no frills, nothing to make it special or stand out from the rest. We did have a great steak in the restaurant.

Great hotel but insanely small Rooms for the price. Nuuk has limited hotels and the features in the room were nothing special. Still it has two great restaurants and a good bar. It’s not a 5 Star hotel but it’s luxury for Greenland.
