Hotel Arctic is the world's most northerly 4-star hotel, with a 5 star conference centre. Right on the edge of the Ilulissat Icefjord - a wonder of the world which is on the UNESCO World Heritage Site list. The main hotel building is located about 100 metres from the coast and the Igloo´s right on the edge. Owned by Air Greenland, the hotel was built shortly after the airport was opened in 1984 to accommodate the passengers.Hotel Arctic has 76 rooms and 9 suites. In addition the hotel has 5 Aluminium "Igloos" built right on the edge of the coast and connected to the hotel by a 75-metre boardwalk. The "Igloo" cabins are inspired by the classic "Eskimo" igloo in shape and design but instead of being made of ice they have an aluminium frame so that when you step inside you are greeted by comfortable and modern facilities like any other hotel room - but the atmosphere is totally different.The Restaurant Ulo serves Greenlandic cuisine and is recognized as one of the very best in the whole country.
