Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location for a short overnight stay. We got booked into this hotel by the Customer Service of Booking team as a replacement booking, after we were left stranded by another property. The lady at the check-in desk was friendly and showed great empathy to our situation. The room was spacious, neat and tidy.

    The room with a private bathroom was like an apartment with private kitchen (room no 10) and had a private access. With sunny weather, we enjoyed the sun by sitting outside with our chairs. There was a washing machine and dryer. Opposite the hostel is a supermarket. We had thick curtains. All in all great option, especially for several day stay, but very simple furniture.

    The staff here goes above and beyond and the hostel feels like home. I would happily stay there again and recommend it to anyone travelling through Nuuk. They were renovating the second bathroom while I was there which meant there was only one available for all guests. We managed just fine even with 6 people in the house. The terrace/ balcony is fantastic for coffee breaks/ sunsets and the kitchen is beautiful. You'll find everything you need there.

    A great hostel. However, I was confused with the city hostel. Both buildings are the same color. There should be a better and the diet way to tell the two hostels apart.

    Fully exceeded my expectations. I booked the cheapest room with a shared bathroom but was given a really nice (accessible) room with en-suite, which was great! Lovely views from the hotel and only a 10-12 minute walk into the centre of town. Breakfast was good too, with cheese, meat, breads, eggs and juices available. Staff lovely.
