HHE Express Nuuk

Nuuk is a small, colour-block capital of scattered peaks and grey water, and HHE Express is a plain, boxy building set among it. The hotel opened as a low-cost counterpart to Hotel Hans Egede, sharing the same address block on Aqqusinersuaq and the same 24-hour reception model, but pared down to function. It holds 108 rooms across four types: Express, Family, Pluss and Sea. Each has a desk, an armchair and a flat-screen TV with built-in Chromecast; every room has its own bathroom. Pluss rooms on the same floor look instead over the surrounding skerries to the south-west. Breakfast is served daily in a ground-floor restaurant, though it is optional and can be added at check-in. A lobby sells drinks and snacks for guests who arrive after hours. Luggage can be stored in lockers on the lower floor. The hotel is smoke-free throughout and reachable by phone around the clock. It sits within walking distance, about 400 metres, of Spisestedet Sarfalik and A Hereford Beefstouw, the two restaurants attached to Hotel Hans Egede. Wi-Fi is free across the building. It is a straightforward stay, built for guests who want a bed and a view of the water without extra frills.
