we were blown away by the views from the rooms of the icebergs floating out to sea from the Jakobshavn glacier. Compared to other hotels we've stayed at in Greenland, this one was exceptional - there was working internet, TV and a wide range of food. Staff were helpful. One evening walking back to the hotel, the shuttlebus recognised us... More

This hotel is not perfect. Service is a bit haphazard, the food too, but when you think about where it is in a small town in the middle off nowhere, it is close to being exceptional. The views from virtually every room are mesmerizing: icebergs in the changing light. The Hotel's location makes the most of the bergs but means... More

All our rooms have curtains which can darken the rooms, so there seems to be a misunderstanding about the possibility to block the (midnight) sun out. Further all the rooms have mosquito net for proctions if our guests prefers to have a window open when they stay in the room. Erik Bjerregaard General Manager More

We stayed at Hotel Arctic last week, but were surprised that our reservation was not found despite having a confirmation email from the hotel. It turns out their server and the Internet had crashed, something which is not surprising as the whole of the internet in Greenland went down later on our journey. Nonetheless, the manager was highly apologetic and... More

There's no question that this is an excellent hotel. It's clean, our room had a superb view of the bay, the facilities are all fine. It's about a 15-minute walk (with extraordinary views) from the centre of Ilulissat, and once an hour there is a free bus into town if you can't face it on foot. Slight downsides include there...

Hotel arctic is in the perfect location, with their free shuttle into town. Amazing views. Rooms are simple and clean. Theres not much to do in the hotel at all so you get a bit bored when theres no excursions going on in town. The main resturants food isnt that great though u can tell they try really hard. I...

Greenland's best hotel, however, pricy compared to other countries - but Greenlandic is expensive. Rooms in different cstegories, but all face the Icefiord. Great food, great terrace. Outside city centre, but frequent huttle bus.

Me and my boyfriend stayed 4 nights in an igloo of the Hotel Arctic, and it turned out to be an amazing experience! The view on the bay is unbeatable, and through the windows you can admire all the nights beauties, from stars to the northern lights. The igloo is extremely comfortable and equipped with all amenities, incl. flat screen... More

This is a nice 4 star hotel in Ilulisaat, Greenland. Having stayed in the other Hotels of the city, I beleive this is the best place if you are visitig the area. Nice breakfast as well. The view as really astonishing, and the restaurant modarate good. The best in the city but rather expensive.

Very clean and comfortable with plenty of options in terms of rooms. We got a room over looking the sea ice, which was just stunning. I think it is pretty expensive but most things are in Greenland. Nice option of little igloo rooms in summer. It is a short 10 minute walk from the town centre, which can be dark... More
