Very friendly staff. Fun stay.

This is a very nice property with a few quirks. Our accommodation was an apartment overlooking a small lagoon with kitchen, ample living area, bedroom and nice bathroom. It appeared to be fairly new. From the living area was a small sunroom overlooking the water and icebergs floating by. Getting to the apt from the lobby was bit of walk over 40 stairs and an outside gravel area as it was detached from the main hotel. This made it difficult to move luggage, yet it was part of the charm. Breakfast was excellent. The property is a good, not level walk from town and there are ample taxis if walking becomes a chore. My wife and I highly recommend this hotel, but if you have mobility issues, stay in the hotel part, not an apt.

We booked Aurora cabin for 5 nights. The room and views are fantastic but the service was terrible I informed the hotel before we arrived that we were vegetarians which they acknowledged but still left a meat sandwich in our room as a freebie When my wife went to the reception to discuss this the lady at the receptionist wanted evidence that we had sent an e-mail, which was really disappointing Even worse we had dinner in the hotel. The menu had 2 vegetarian choice which were OK. We mentioned we were staying 5 nights and asked if the chefs would be able to cook something else and we were told that was not an option. Interestingly the hotel had a vegetarian pasta salad in lunch menu. We asked if we could have that for dinner Disappointingly we were told they couldn't do that. I cannot understand why any restaurant let alone a restaurant in 4 star hotel cannot accommodate such small request Would not recommend the hotel based on service Jaymin

Beautiful setting. A long walk from town, but there is a twice hourly bus that makes it simple. Property is spread out, so get ready to haul your gear over gravel and stairs with zero offer of help from the staff. Decent breakfast.

It is probably the best hotel to stay in Ilullisat. It is clean in a good location, and the majority of the staff are good, except for the odd new person. The food though is quite poor, the selection is not great, and not great for vegetarians. They are inflexible to accommodate.

There's a lot of good stuff to say about this property. First, it's owned by Air Greenland so if your flight is canceled or delayed (as was ours), they put you up in this hotel, which is the closest one to the airport. The city bus, which only costs a couple bucks and runs every 30 minutes, actually stops in the parking lot. Too, there's a free shuttle to and from the hotel from the airport. The restaurant and bar are a real plus, but the breakfast buffet is the best one we had in 3 weeks in Iceland and Greenland. It puts all others to shame. The trick is to fill up there and save the cost of lunch before spending your life's earnings on dinner in Greenland. The downside to the Hotel is that it's not close to the city center or restaurants which is either a short bus ride away or about a 20-minute walk. The Icefjord Center is completely on the other side of town and the grocery store is in the city center. Taxis are expensive (what isn't in Greenland) but readily available. We loved the view from the room. All the icebergs floating outside the window were awesome. Too, the boat tours are about a 15-minute walk from the hotel. The staff was particularly awesome in helping us when our flight was initially canceled and then significantly delayed the next day (typical Greenland weather). I'm a walker and there aren't that many hotels and restaurants in Ililusat. I really think Hotel Arctic is the best of the bunch.

The only thing that’s good is the view! The rest is all terribly terrible, the staff not helpful, rooms are dirty & smelly, the website advertises amenities all false! Definitely not a 4 & half stars hotel. Will never be back.

Fantastic hotel on the coast with great views on the icebergs. We stayed in a one bedroom apartment for 5 nights and it was excellent all around. The breakfast had a great range of choices. We highly recommend.

I like the airport shuttle. Breakfast included. Great views from the room. The room is bit small for 2. Only 1 mile walking to the town center. Nice exercise room. Friendly staff.

Stayed in one of the cabins which was wonderful. Very spacious, heated floors and gorgeous views. The only downside was getting to the room, as they are outside you need to walk along the external footpath, parts of which are stone/gravel and very uneven to reach the wooden path. It was quite difficult getting a heavy suitcase up the stairs in the freezing cold. Staff were friendly, food was excellent and there is also a free shuttle to and from the airport. Make sure you book with reception the night prior to departure. Approx 20 min to walk into town or you can get the bus or order a taxi at reception. The bus timetable is displayed at the reception desk.

Panoramic aurora cabins are awesome. The views are superb. Well stocked, warm and unique.

Great beds, wonderful breakfast, friendly and helpful staff, heated bathroom floor, and just all around great experience!

The rooms were nice and clean, the staff very friendly, but Martin the chef/server at restaurant Ulo was amazing! You can tell that he loves his job, he was very polite and cordial. I stay 2 nights in the glass cabin and it was the highlight of my trip!

Absolutely unbelievable! The views from the glass cabins is stunning and a completely unique experience. The staff of the main hotel impeccably friendly and the food while pricey is excellent. We can’t wait to be back. Elmar and Steve from Dallas

We stayed one night in the glass cabin. The view is nice but the room is quite small. During day time on a sunny day the room can get pretty warm. One other thing I didn’t realize before the stay was that any small LED lights at night are reflected on multiple glass panels which could be annoying for some. I would opt for a larger suite in the main building next time.

Each night we were able to watch a whale play in the bay with the sun setting behind it with beautiful icebergs. A very mice way to end the day. The hotel is just outside the town but it was easy to get in by taxi or bus.

Nice view of the glaciers

Fjord view rooms are amazing.

The View was awesome from my glass window cabin! BEAUTIFUL!
