Each night we were able to watch a whale play in the bay with the sun setting behind it with beautiful icebergs. A very mice way to end the day. The hotel is just outside the town but it was easy to get in by taxi or bus.

Es begann damit, dass ich dem Hotel bereits 2 Monate bevor ich buchte, eine E-Mail schrieb und 2 kurze Fragen hatte zur Buchung. Als nach 3 Wochen noch keine Antwort kam, schrieb ich über Instagram und fragte wann denn eine Antwort kommt, diese kam dann 2 Tage später. Richtig helfen konnte man nicht. Service gibt es hier absolut nicht. Wir buchten eine Nacht in einem normalen Zimmer, welches bereits sehr abgewohnt war. Der Wasserkocher war glaube ich von 1980. Die Betten sehr durch gelegen. Die Aussicht war allerdings super. Beim Check in wurden wir so gar nicht freundlich begrüßt. Der ältere Herr sprach scheinbar kein Englisch oder verstand einfach nichts. Es ist absolut kein check in vor der Check in Zeit möglich auch wenn sehr viele Zimmer frei sind. Wir hatten nach der ersten Nacht noch 2 Nächte in den Aurora Cabins gebucht. Davon waren auch 4 frei. Also man konnte sie noch buchen. Dennoch mussten wir spätestens um 10 aus checken und konnten dann erst wieder 16 uhr einchecken. Absolut umständlich und hat nichts mit Service zu tun. Die Koffer ließen wir im Hotel. Dort stehen sie in einem Raum der für jeden zugänglich ist und nicht verschlossen war. Mit einem unguten Gefühl sind wir also den ganzen Tag unterwegs gewesen. Wir zogen dann abends in die Cabin. Ja sie sind toll. Aber wer schon mal in Norwegen oder Island in solchen Cabins geschlafen hat wird enttäuscht sein. Sie war wirklich sehr klein. Es gab 2 Flaschen Wasser und 2 eingepackte Sandwiches. Keine hochwertig
