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.

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 !!

Comfortable Hotel with some issues
This hotel was definitely a nice and comfortable one especially compared to some of the other options in town which are mostly youth hostels and/or guest houses. The room are nice and big with a view on the water and they are decorated in a modern style with a touch of Greenland spirit. However please be prepared to eat the same food over and over again as the hotel breakfast never changes and the menu -even a la carte- is quiet limited when one has dietary restrictions. Lastly it is important to note that the room are not as soundproof as one would hope so you keep hearing doors being closed/opened, noise of showers or TVs and loud conversations from the neighbors or from the restaurant Terrace which is near some of the hotel rooms... Personally I thought that the service at the hotel was very minimalist and you often wait for a long time at the reception before someone attends to you as there is usually only one person doing other things too. If I go back, I am not sure I would stay there again as there are other hotels available which may be worth trying too. The biggest advantage this one has is the FREE WIFI which is hard to find in Greenland and the nice view.

Great place with beautiful views
Beautiful views over the water from all the rooms. The rooms are a bit simple, but have everything you need and are kept clean. The breakfast is a great Scandinavian spread. Heard good things about the restaurant, but I was too busy out watching the sunset over the icebergs every night to try it myself. The bar is fun with (surprisngly good) local beers on tap from Brewery Immiaq. Its about a 15 minute walk to the very "center" of town, but its actually perfect because you are closer to the start of the hiking trails and right on the water - I'd only be concerned by the location if you have accesibility issues (but then I would think most tour operators are willing to transport to/from the hotel anyway). I'll definitely stay here again if I ever return to Ilulissat.

Good enough
Good restaurant, great view, short hike to the heart-stopping icefjords, but don't expect much from the rooms or amenities beyond basic functional adequacy. The walls need paint, and the soap dispensers in the bathroom are the kind you might find at a gas station, but the icebergs are right in your face and we slept like babies.
