Pros:

It was very comfy. I liked it a lot. If you're on a budget travel and want to be in a place with good service, good breakfast and good clean room. This is the place for you. Perfect for just passing by and stay a night in Ilulissat.

Cons:

I boiled water in the water boiler, on the hotplate. Extractor above the hotplate automatically turned on when pulled out. After a short while the extractor hood grate fell down. Found out the other end was duct taped with elephant tape, when it became moist and it was pulled out, it fell down.

Pros:

Personnel très serviable

Cons:

Dommage que la réception ne soit ouvert que 2 × 3 heures par jour.
Télévision ne permettait pas d’avoir accès à des chaînes. C’est pourtant basique.
Il manque à l’entrée un salon ou au moins quelques fauteuils ou un canapé quand on doit attendre.

Sehr schöne Lage, tolle Gastgeberin, sehr guter Service, geräumige gut eingerichtete Zimmer, perfekt
Pros:

Ein sehr schönes Hotel in guter Lage, modern gestaltet, Oberhalb und auf der anderen Seite der Stadt gelegen, Extrem hilfsbereite und serviceorientierte Gastgeberin !!! Frühstück in Ordnung, Tolle Aussicht auf Ilulissat und Eisberge. Wir haben uns dort sehr wohl gefühlt. Zu Fuß in die Stadt sind es ca. 20 Minuten, wobei der Rückweg bergauf ist. Es gibt allerdings eine Bushaltestelle nahe dem Hotel.

Cons:

Leider hat bei der Abreise die Abholung und der Shuttle zum Flughafen morgens um 5:30 Uhr nicht geklappt. Wir haben vergeblich gewartet und konnten zum Glück noch auf die Schnelle ein Taxi buchen.

Pros:

The hotel was nice and had friendly staff. I appreciated they checked us in early, however I did find the 10am check out quite early. I did not like how people were permitted to smoke on the balconies in front of the room windows as it made it difficult to get fresh air. There was also a city bus stop right in ground of the hotel which I appreciated. The hotel also offered free airport transportation. Overall it was a great stay.

Pros:

Ein tolles kleines Hotel. Um einiges besser als das Artic Hotel nebenan. Sehr netter Service. Kleines aber leckeres Frühstück inklusive. Wifi inklusive und ein Shuttle vom Flughafen. Die Dusche war super. Hatte genug Druck zum Haare waschen. Bett war ebenfalls bequem. Kann es absolut empfehlen . Man läuft circa 20 min bis zum Nächsten großen Supermarkt.

Bon pour un court séjour
Pros:

C'est un hôtel avec un très bon accueil familial. Le personnel est souriant et à disposition pour rendre service.
Ambiance de pension de famille. Petit-déjeuner assez complet.

Cons:

Notre chambre donnait sur la route (assez bruyante la journée) et sur les cages des chiens polaires. Ceux-ci ont été très bruyants l'une des deux nuits que nous avons passées (aboiement jusqu'à minuit). L'hôtel n'est pas au centre d'Ilulissat car il faut suivre une route durant 20-25 minutes à pied.
