HOTEL HANS EGEDE

With its five floors, Hotel Hans Egede (HHE) is quite a landmark in the heart of Nuuk. The central location means that you can walk to everything from the hotel. In the morning the taxis are busy, from when the first guests check out long before breakfast starts at 6 and again from noon onwards, when new guests arrive at the 4-star hotel.

  In front of the reception is a lounge area with sofas andcomputers where you can read your email, if you do not use the Internet in the rooms. Four elevators ensure guests do not wait too long and one is an express elevator that connects directly with restaurants, reception, bar and the conference facilities on the fifth floor.

  Here you can find Nuuk’s largest breakfast buffet along with daily newspapers. Later in the same place, lunch is served for the participants of HHE’s many conferences and later tender grilled steaks at A Hereford Beefstouw, as it is called in the evening. If you go past the steaks, you come to one of Nuuk’s best restaurants, Sarfalik.

  To tie it all together, HHE has the Skyline Bar from which as the name suggests, you can look out over a large part of Nuuk’s rooftops, with the fjord to one side and the impressive mountains, Malene and Hjortetakken, on the other. There is often live music and Skyline is the place where the more adult audience gather in Nuuk.

  The conference facilities have different rooms for up to 150 people in total. Some rooms can be combined into one large room, with space for 120 participants. As with the rest of HHE, the service is unnoticed, but top class, so guests can concentrate on their meetings. This is all provided by our General Manager Marianne Rasmussen and the conference manager, with help from any of the 60 permanent employees.

  HHE has been renovated several times since it was built in 1989. Most recently in 2007, with the addition of an entire new five storey wing.
