Hotels in der Nähe von Ilulissat Museum, Ilulissat

Given the remoteness of Ilulissat, climate challenges and an impossible supply chain, I was expecting to find a somewhat rustic hotel which would probably keep us warm most nights...this Best Western was anything but that. Our 5 days there were exceptional. The breakfasts were fresher than fresh and more elegant than 5-star hotels I've stayed at in Paris, Zurich and Venice. The rooms and public spaces were kept very clean, it has a great location, and friendly staff. A big plus is the travel agent desk set up right next to the hotel front desk. This company is owned and operated by locals and they can get you hooked into all the sights worth seeing and doing.

Wir buchten im Februar von ********** für zweimal zwei Nächte Ende Juni. Die Nacht zwischen uns blieb im Eqi Lodge. Wir hatten einige große Probleme mit diesem Hotel, aber ich weiß nicht, wer zu schuldig ist; das Hotel oder *************. Zuerst haben wir 310 DDK (~ 44 Euro) mehr als von ********** reserviert, weil es nicht möglich ist, sich bei ********** zu beschweren, außer per Telefon (nur eine Option, wenn Sie gerne für immer warten) Ich weiß nicht, wer zu schuldig. Aber wenn Sie dieses Hotel reservieren wollen, bezahlen Sie im Voraus. Wir wurden nicht vom Flughafen abgeholt. Wir mussten uns ein Taxi selbst arrangieren (und bezahlen). Nach dem Hotel gab es eine Misskommunikation mit **********. Kleiner Punkt: Sie nennen sie sich selbst ein Hotel, aber die Zimmer wurden nicht während des Wochenendes gereinigt. Wir haben nachdem wir es gefragt hatten, saubere Handtücher erhalten. Das Hotel hat keine 24-Stunden-Rezeption. Für die guten Punkte: Gutes Frühstück in ihrem Restaurant auf der anderen Seite der Straße. Sehr komplett (!) Zimmer mit einer Küche einschließlich Mikrowelle, Kühlschrank, Platten, Panzer usw. Sauber, schöne Zimmer mit einem guten Bett, einem Tisch und zwei Stühlen. Gute Dusche. Gute WLAN. Kostenloses Kaffee, Tee und Coco. (Zweites Mal gab es nicht viel Kaffee.) Sie haben einen Weg nach der Zeit des Büros (nahe bei 6PM) bei 7PM aus unserer Reise aus Eqi Lodge geplant. Das Hotel befindet sich im Zentrum der Stadt, in der Nähe von 3 Supermärkten, mehreren Restaurants (meist geschlossen) und mehreren Touristenbetreibern. Selbst mit den 300 DDK-Zusatz- und Taxikosten ist die Option noch weniger kostengünstig im Vergleich zu den meisten anderen Hotels in der Stadt. gps: 69.218345, -51.098666

Die Lage des Hotels ist relativ günstig für das Stadtzentrum und den Treffpunkt für Aktivitäten. Das Design des Hotels ist sehr gut und sehr neu. Das Frühstück ist sehr gut und es gibt ein Auto zum Abholen und Zurückbringen. Es lohnt sich zu bleiben wieder!

Stayed for 4 nights - very easy going, friendly hotel. The rooms heat up very quickly which was welcome. Breakfast was simple and plentiful. The staff were super helpful. My guess is it’s a 3* rating so better value to the 4* Arctic Hotel next door which we used for some evening meals and taxis etc.

We stayed here for four nights and enjoyed our stay. But there are sone issues with this hotel. Transport to and from the Nuuk ferry/airport is included in the hotel prices in Ilulissat. The shuttle was late picking Hotel Arctic passengers at the ferry dock (other hotels were on time). Then, when the two shuttles finally did arrive they were joint shuttles (with other hotels) and wouldn’t let Arctic Hotel guests get on. We had to wait (20 minutes total wait time from when ferry arrived) for one van to come back and pick up Arctic Hotel guests. So you have guests at one of the top hotels in Ilulissat being made to wait as guests at less expensive hotels get taken to their accommodation first. At reception they have shuttle times going until 11:30 PM. In practice this stops at 6 PM. The receptionists will tell you a shuttle is available while the Transport Manager points to Danish text under the shuttle timetable saying airport transports get priority as a justification for not running the shuttle after 6 pm. It’s only a 15 minute walk into the center of town and fine in summer, but in winter this is not ok. Especially as one bus is apparently more often being serviced than on the road. As a result, if coming to Ilulissat in March/April for the Northern lights and winter activities, I’d stay at the more centrally located Best Western Ilulissat Hotel. (Note: taxis are available, but you are paying a premium to stay at this hotel.) Mercifully, transport to the airport is in a shuttle dedicated to Arctic Hotel guests. Shuttle times for your flights are listed at 6 pm the night before. There is still ongoing construction (to build the Northern Lights villas) and bulldozers. There is no mention of this on the hotel website and I’m not sure if guests are getting a discount for this inconvenience? However, we got a Umiaq class room on a high floor which we were very happy with, after asking our Greenland travel agent to call the hotel so that we wouldn’t get a blocked view. Construction activity is expected to be completed end August 2023, so hopefully this issue will resolve itself soon. The Umiaq rooms are spacious and very comfortable. Lovely bathrooms and eveyis very clean. The views from the hotel are incredible but note that they are better further into town as you are closer to the larger icebergs. The restaurant is popular and bookings are essential even for hotel guests. They have a mix of more gourmet items and Greenlandic specialities as well as more hearty fare such as burgers. The only vegetarian option is a mushroom veggie burger with French fries. The buffet breakfast is adequate but not up to the quality one would expect of a hotel of this standing. The hot food is not over a hot plate or kept warm in coverings, so is often cold. A greater variety of nuts and fruits and cucumber and tomatoes would be welcome for health conscious guests . They have efficient sand day laundry service but sadly they don’t follow t
