Hotel Kulusuk

Hotel Kulusuk is somewhat the center of activity on the island for tourists. The hotel is a ten minute walk from the airport and a twenty minute walk from the village of Kulusuk.

The hotel has 36 rooms and when we arrived, it was bustling with tourists from around the world. Everyone seemed to be very chatty. We met Danes, Brits, Germans, and Italians. We took a two hour walk to town and when we returned, we were the only group left in the hotel. That’s what you get on September 1st in east Greenland. 

The significance of this photo is that Kulusuk Island only has four motor vehicles. Hotel Kulusuk has two of them, as you can see here. They were mostly for carrying luggage.

This view is from a hill just up and across the road. That's our hotel on the right and that's the location in Kulusuk Island.

This view is looking straight out our hotel window.
