A Great Stay in Nuuk

I stayed here for three nights after being trapped in Nuuk by a flight cancelation. This is a nice hotel in the heart of downtown Nuuk. The staff, from the front desk to the bar and restaurant, were very pleasant and really accommodating. One woman at the front desk really went above and beyond in liaising with the airline that cancelled my flight. I truly appreciate the effort. I would definitely stay here again.
