冰峽酒店(Hotel Icefiord)

Excellent location with lovely views of the bay and ice bergs. The breakfast is typical with choice of eggs, bacon and sausage plus breads and cereals and cheese. Most rooms face the bay. Complimentary WiFi which is strong in the lobby areas. Outside seating is very nice. Lovely hotel.

You need to definitely arrange a transfer from the airport as it is a long way to the hotel. The room was a decent size. We were glad it had somewhere to hang our coats. The view out the window is straight out to a view of the icebergs moving past. The hotel is long and thin so that all windows look towards the Bay. Breakfast was a good spread for those who don't have dietary restrictions. I mainly ate boiled eggs. They didn't have decaf coffee so I used my own. The walk into the village centre is about 1.7km and over a couple of hills so you have to decide how many times per day you'll do it. We would go in once, meet our tour, and have an early dinner before walking back. There are taxis and we used them a couple of times, especially after the 2.5 hour headland walk! One taxi driver took us to the large supermarket so we could get some supplies. The hotel's selling point is definitely the view.

The staff are polite when you check in, but rude when you are leaving. We were at the front desk at 10:05 (checkout is 10:00) and were berated for being late, and told they would now no longer honer the free transfer to the airport. Also, the breakfast bar is weak. Hotel Arctic is much more affordable, has better views, and a much better breakfast bar. It's a bit farther away, but there are hourly shuttles to/from town.

Nous avons séjourné dans l'un des "Deluxe apartments" (situés à 2 kms de l'hôtel). Nous avions choisi cette modalité d'hébergement afin de disposer d'une cuisine (partagée avec les 3 autres chambres) et préparer, nous-mêmes, nos repas. La chambre était de belle taille, la literie confortable et la salle de bain équipée comme il se doit. Le tout était propre. Nous avions accès à une petite terrasse privative avec vue sur la Baie de Disko et nous avons pu en profiter (malgré les moustiques !). Quelques points (non rédhibitoires) sont à souligner : les "Deluxe apartments" sont un peu éloignés du centre ville et suppose une marche d'une quinzaine de minutes, en bord de route, pour rejoindre les lieux de rendez-vous des activités. Il est, également, bon de savoir que la chambre ne dispose pas de rideaux occultants. Si vous ne pouvez dormir que dans le "noir", prenez vos dispositions si vous y venez l'été. Enfin, il n'y a ni service de chambre, ni ménage fait. Cet hôtel est correct et les prestations assurées suffisantes pour passer de superbes vacances. Ce qui importe, avant tout, c'est l'environnement dans lequel il est situé. Le Groenland est un pays fantastique.

Great location and view, excellent food, and friendly helpful staff that work as a team and want guests to have a positive experience. Also the hotel is allied with a tour company that enables easy access to great outings to see icebergs, whales, glaciers etc. Highly recommend !!

The highlight of this place was the staff, who were universally friendly, professional, and helpful. The breakfast was good, and the transfer shuttle was nice, but buyer beware: “standard” rooms are anything but. I booked 8 months before my stay and attempted to rent one of the off-site apartments the hotel offers - however, this reservation was canceled, and I was rebooked in the main hotel. My stay was staggered with other shorter trips to the surrounding area, and I wound up staying in 3 different rooms The first room was a “special” room for solo travelers. I’d booked a standard room and, based on website photos and description, was expecting a double bed, space to move around the room, a view of the water. However, I was assigned a tiny room with a twin bed that took up most of the room, and a window that looked at the apartment building next door. It lacked basics like coat hooks, a nightstand, a read lamp, or a functioning wardrobe - and yet, it cost just as much as other rooms. The next room was adjacent to the kitchen, where I could hear cooking, conversation, and the staff’s music from 6am-almost midnight. Banging on the wall and the constant noise of the kitchen ventilation systems were added bonuses. The second room was larger and had the basics you’d expect in a hotel room, but due to kitchen noise, I actually wound up wearing earplugs anytime I was in my room, it was that loud! The third room was adjacent to the lobby and dining hall, so also very loud - patrons were audible from early morning until late at night. The dining room windows also had a direct view into the hotel room - no privacy here. As other guests have noted, wifi is weird in this hotel, and it did not work in this room. Hotel Icefiord advertises itself as a premier hotel and “peaceful retreat” on their website. That was absolutely the opposite of my experience, and given the cost of this hotel, I’m deeply disappointed. I stayed in three different rooms, and all were subpar. I highly recommend you book elsewhere!

Abbiamo soggiornato all'Icefjord Appartment de Luxe. Non ne vale la pena. Vista molto modesta (la cosa che si vede meglio è una cisterna del porto), camera discreta ma niente a che vedere con alcuni Air b&b ...molto più economici e con una vista impareggiabile!!! Torneremo ad Ilulissat....ma non nei De Luxe.

Beware that the hotel can book you in separate apartments without clearly explaining that you're on your own as far as transportation. The hotel staff is completely unhelpful. Just avoid the place. There are nicer hotels in the area. They won't drive you back and forth even to pick you up to come to their own restaurant.

The hotel is well situated, right on the water and walking distance to the center of town. You can even walk to the ice fjord. Dinners are creative and probably the best in town. Lunch is limited to 2 types of sandwiches. Rooms are simple and functional, Scandinavian style.
