Polar Lodge

Polar Lodge

8/10 Good
"The Polar Lodge is basic accommodations and economically priced given the options in Kangerlussuaq. Conveniently located less than 5 minutes walk from airport. The Euro/continental breakfast is good although no fruit included. The shared showers and washrooms proved adequate with no waiting. A refrigerator and cooking are provided for preparing your own meals. The grocery store is a across the street with limited hours. A hair dryer would be beneficial as none provided."
