Lovely place with amazing hosts.

“Amazing stay at Nordlys”

Great value for money, Saw 2 times whales and didn't have to pay for a whale safari :). Ole is a great host. Due to the nature of this place (remotness and affordable price) you are likely to meet other interesting travellers.

“beautiful and cosy place”

braeakefast was good the view was excellent general service was good

“Fascinating!”

This was a great adventure for us. We knew not to expect a 5 star stay while staying in a settlement of 45 people. Fortunately for us we were the only guests at the Hotel. We spent some quality time with Ole who explained the workings of the settlement. We arrived late in the season so the restaurant was closed but the shop had adequate supplies if you wanted to cook for yourself. We ate meals at the hotel. Ole caught a cod and a seal that he cooked up for our dinner. An experience we won’t forget. Breakfast was good with cereal, breads, meats and cheese. Plenty of coffee and juice. Our bedroom was large and warm. The bathroom was small and has a dry toilet which we know as a drop toilet when hiking in Australia. There are some wonderful views, walks and we saw some great icebergs. Ole’s communication was excellent. We’d planned to hike to Oqaatsut from Ilulissat however a huge dump of snow stopped us so Ole organized a boat to taxi us to Oqaatsut. Much appreciated.

“Great small hotel in small settlement, very good service.”

Nothing.

“Beautiful place, amazing food and hospitality yet unreliable owner”

Very nice family run place, you can see whales in the bay from the dining room. Breakfast very solid, cooked by the owner lady, she also offers lunch/dinner upon request, we tasted their lamb stew with cabbage and was excellent. Definitely recommend. The rooms are clean, comfortable, beautiful views. Hikes around also amazing. Definitely recommend.

“Superb hosts who knew the area well. We booked Ole for a whale tour and he was tops!”

Location was fantastic, quiet and right in the small settlement. The ablity to soak in the local life was a huge plus.

“The most beautiful location in Greenland!”

The best location in Greenland! You can experience a true Greenlandic village life, starting with a boat transfer (seeing whales and icebergs on the way). Fantastic view from the window, fully equipt kitchen, shop nearby (closes at midday),

“Unique home stay with an amazing host”

Out of this world experience in a village North of Ilulissat.

“Relaxed, insightful and comfortable”

It’s situation in Oqaatsut it’s proprietor Olé and wonderful staff whose name momentarily escapes me (apologies see was fun gracious and did lots of the chores)

“Exceptional location”

This hotel is in an exceptional place, the owners are friendly and helpful and there’s everything you need for a stay in this special place after having spent the day hiking up the coast from Illulissat.

Wonderrful place in a unique location. Ole is a great guide and offers whale tour and fishing. Obviously you are in a secluded place so you can't look for luxury or amenities.

“Excellent”

Ole and his wife were excellent hosts, very friendly and helpful Great views from the property and either a boat ride or 21km hike from Ilulissat

It was excellent Olé is a fantastic man .

Very nice place in a small village. Nice and helpful people. The owner cooked something very good for us because the only restaurant was closed. Check opening times of the restaurant H8 on their FB page before you go! Currently, they are closed on Sundays and Mondays, but this could change.
