We enjoyed are stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The one problem we had, a plugged shower drain, was resolved quickly. The breakfast and staff were both very good. The restaurant that served steak was the best we had experienced in our 2 month trip through Europe from Romania to Greenland. The beef was cooked perfectly and was very tasty and easy to cut. We highly recommend anyone visiting HHE to dine there at least once. But make sure you have a reservation. The first night we were there we couldn’t get a table.

Great hotel but insanely small Rooms for the price. Nuuk has limited hotels and the features in the room were nothing special. Still it has two great restaurants and a good bar. It’s not a 5 Star hotel but it’s luxury for Greenland.

Nicest hotel in Nuuk. Large, clean room. Small bath. Comfy bed. Friendly, helpful staff. Little coffee bar in lobby. Two restaurants with delicious food. Bountiful breakfast buffet. Huge grocery store across the street. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice breakfast smorgasbord.

Sadly, this hotel came up as the best offering in Nuuk. There was no fridge, no kettle, only a single towel and hand towel (or maybe it was the bathmat) for a party of two. On the plus side, the wifi was great and there was a nice Nordic breakfast on the top level, especially the mixed fruit juice/smoothie. I think some work might need to be done to bring it up to speed as Nuuk opens to tourism. Staff were great.

Good but room for improvement

It wasn't clear when we booked the hotel that it was under renovation - it should be when there is noise from 7:00 to after 7:00 in the evening. Check out is at 10:00 so be prepared, seems strange when all the long distance flights are around 13-15 would have been great to have normal check out 11 or 12 as most hotels. Even though the early check out time they didn’t manage to tidy the room before we came back from an excursion around 16:30 when they very busy in our room. Additional the cleaners throw out over maps which was on the table. Filling the buffet at breakfast was very slow had to ask the service to top up on food. It’s a shame as the service in the restaurant was great and the location downtown is good
