■ Top-tuned Hotel Arctic 33 new rooms and a new conference centre make Air Greenland’s hotel in Ilulissat one of the most modern in Greenland By Christian Schultz-Lorentzen Hotel Arctic has opened the doors to a whole new wing with 33 rooms spread over three floors. All the new rooms are of high, international standard and all have unique views of the Ice Bank, Disko Bay and Ilulissat town – the most popular tourist attractions in Greenland. The hotel’s new wing is situated as an extension of the Kayak Wing which Hotel Arctic opened in the year 2000. The new wing is therefore appropriately named »Umiaq«, which is the Greenlandic word for women’s boat. But this is not the end of the innovations at Hotel Arctic, which is owned by Air Greenland. A new meeting and conference centre will be available for use in a few months – in January 2009 – and it has already been acknowledged with five stars. The conference centre, which is already receiving bookings, will be able to accommodate 120 participants Suluk # 04 2008 36 ■ Illuaqqat illuikkatut ilusillit nuannarineqarluartut. ■ De populære iglohytter. ■ The popular igloo huts. who can look forward to fascinating surroundings and fine facilities. The new part of the conference centre is being built in the driveway to Hotel Arctic. From here, there is a magnificent view across the Ice Bank and the town of Ilulissat with its almost 5000 inhabitants and almost just as many dogs. The town was the birthplace of famous polar explorer Knud Rasmussen, whose childhood home today is a museum. With the opening of the new Umiaq Wing, Hotel Arctic has 87 rooms and five igloo huts with a total capacity of 184 beds. All the present, north-facing hotel rooms in the older wing will be closed in connection with the building of the new conference centre. Subsequently there will be views of the Ice Bank, Disko Bay and Ilulissat town from all the hotel’s rooms as well as from the gourmet restaurant Ulo, the Takanna brasserie and the conference facilities. In the summer of 2009 the hotel will open the doors to the lower floor of the Umiaq Wing where a new and entirely wonderful world awaits in the form of a wellness and fitness centre. With this, Hotel Arctic is very well equipped to receive the increasing stream of tourists and celebrities who choose to visit this jewel in West Greenland. The hotel has been visited by several celebrities over recent years, e.g. American presidential candidate and senator John McCain, the chairman of the EU Commission Jose Manuel Barroso, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the Russian foreign minister Sergej Lavrov, the Icelandic singer Björk, Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen and members of both the Danish, Japanese and Thai royal courts.
