Nordbo Hotel Apartments
A short-term rental unit close to the youth hostel.
A short-term rental unit close to the youth hostel.
In an ageing sports centre behind Nuuk's most unappealing housing estates, Nuuk's youth hostel has 17 beds, a kitchen and a dining table all in one big room. That's fine (if a little eerie) when you're alone.
In principle it's a fantastic idea to sleep in a reconstructed traditional Greenlandic turf hut.
Centerbo offers relatively reasonably priced rooms, each with hotplate, sink, fridge and shower-toilet unit. The bed is a small, foldout double.
Most of the rooms are now fairly smartly upgraded with private bathrooms. The best are brand new, but cheaper ones are pretty cramped. The very cheapest Dkr595 singles have communal toilet and showers.
Nuuk Kontor & Bogføring is a local book-keeping company that deals with simple hut lets in the Eqaluit Paarliit valley (Dkr700 to Dkr800 per week, access by boat, then hiking).
All rooms have private bath, TV/video and mini-bar. 'Polar class' rooms cost an extra Dkr210 for better views. A few single rooms cost a reduced Dkr795 because they're beside the noisy elevator shafts. The hotel provides internet service also.
