The hotel was clean and friendly and I'd readily stay there again. For the price though, I'd have wished for a little more luxury on the downstairs rooms. I stayed twice in a week; the first time was downstairs and close to the hot tub - very noisy that night with a group in the tub. The second night I stayed, it was upstairs, it was quiet, and much more luxurious. Definitely ask for an upstairs room!

We loved our stay at Hotel Soma in Nuuk. The staff were so warm and welcoming. We felt very comfortable throughout our visit because of the kindness shown to us. The restaurant was superior, and the Christmas feast was truly amazing. Our room was very clean and had the minimalist styling and high-quality furnishings the Danish are famous for.

A big thank you based on my recent stay at Hotel Soma Nuuk. The hotel was a fantastic option and deliberately chosen as near the Tidal Steps for a few boating trips. My budget room was impeccably clean, and warm. Breakfast was brilliant with a good choice of hot and cold options. A big thanks you to the young lady who manned the restaurant for breakfast/lunch, and the young man on evening duty - did a great job of welcoming me and giving me the general low down on the areas food Thanks

Great hotel. Very close to the downtown area. 15-minute walk or so, immediate next to the port for the cruise I did around Greenland. I stayed in the budget room, which meant shared shower and toilet, but it had a nice sink in the room for brushing the teeth. Great economic option. And it was really cool to stay in one of the older buildings instead of one of the newer modern ones. Definitely recommend this place. Oh and delicious restaurant!

Average but OK

Staff friendly, hotel OK and clean although some rooms do not have their own bathroom. We did and the shower was very good - nice water pressure but the bathrooms were outdated. Hotel is about a 15 min walk from town so not very centrally located. Thought it was expensive $345 per night.

Nice breakfast buffet offered, several nice options were available. Beds were very comfortable, but as usual, extremely narrow. Small Great shower pressure Easy taxi ride to and from airport. Dinner menu was limited but presented very well. Do not forget to bring your 2 prong euro AC adapters. There are no USB charging ports for phones. Wall outlets only. Overall, a nice pleasant stay.

Incredible hotel in an incredible part of the world! We travelled to Nuuk for our honeymoon from the UK and couldn’t recommend Hotel Soma more. Staff were so helpful even before we arrived, informing us about late check-out options and taxis from the airport. Location is great - plenty of parking but also very walkable to the centre and the colonial harbour (uphill on the way). Breakfast was brilliant and our room was excellent too. We’d love to return one day!

Basic Stay

The stay was fine. The hotel is pretty basic. My room was small....with a twin bed and one pillow. The towels in the bathroom are very small and thin. My room was not serviced one of the days despite me asking which was annoying.
