Single & Double Rooms

All package prices are per person and are based on two people sharing a room. If you are traveling with a companion and book together, you will automatically be put in the same room. If you book separately but would still like to share with a specific person, simply put the name and/or booking number of your companion in the ‘comments’ section of your booking.

If you are a solo traveler, you will be paired with another traveler of the same gender.

Any participants that wish to have a room for themselves can pay a single supplement fee in order to obtain a single room. 

Hotel Kangerlussuaq participants have the option to share a family room with up to 4 people by choosing the "Quad Share" option. 4 participants in the same room will receive a EUR 100 discount. The discount, however, is not given at the time of booking, but only when the race is fully booked and the rooming situation is in place. Family rooms at Hotel Kangerlussuaq have two adjoining rooms: one with two separate beds and one with a bunk bed.

 

Old Camp Hostel

Old Camp Reception buildingLocated 3km away from the airport, Old Camp is a traditional hostel format with small, cozy rooms and shared bathroom facilities. Old Camp’s accommodations are simply furnished, yet well-outfitted with all of the essential amenities, such as beds, linens, and a small wardrobe. The hostel consists of four buildings: three for accommodation and the fourth serves as the reception and boutique. 

The Ulo building will look the most familiar to regular hostel-goers, as the rooms consist of bunk beds. The Qajak and Tuukkaq buildings feature double rooms with two single beds that can be joined together as a double bed. In every building, you will find a communal dining and living room, perfect for relaxing and sharing stories with fellow travelers. 

 

 

Polar Lodge

Polar Lodge Standard RoomIn terms of facilities, Polar Lodge is fairly similar to Old Camp (although with bigger rooms). However, it is only about 200m from the airport, and is directly adjacent to the start/finish area for the marathon. The total capacity is 16 rooms. Toilets and bathrooms are on a shared basis in the hallway. The lodge has a small dining room where breakfast is served, a small kitchen with a stove, refrigerator and kettle, and a souvenir shop. 

 

 

 

 

 

Hotel Kangerlussuaq 

Hotel Kangerlussuaq Standard RoomHotel Kangerlussuaq is directly adjacent to the airport, which means it is also close to the marathon start/finish area. The hotel has nice and fairly large single and double rooms with private bathrooms. You can also opt for a quad room (family room) where four people can sleep - this means two twin beds and an additional bunk bed. Breakfast is served in the cafeteria, and the hotel also has a nice restaurant and a bar.
