If you've been craving a remote vacation but haven't had the wherewithal to make it happen, you're in luck: Hotels.com is running a promotion that will solve both problems for you. Hotels.com is offering free accommodation at remote Greenland hotels to all travelers who book accommodation during March 2019.
Yes, seriously.
The hotel is located in Ittoqqortoormiit (pronounced: IT-TOQ-QOR-TOOR-MIT), Greenland, a small town of approximately 450 people. In fact, the town is so remote that the hotel, Ittoqqortoormiit Guesthouse, only has seven rooms. When I say this hotel is remote, I mean it's about 500 miles away from the nearest town, where dog sledding is the most efficient form of transportation. There are actually no buses, cars or trains... so when you go there, you'll be there for a while.
If that sounds good, you'll be happy to know that Hotels.com is footing the bill for travelers willing to take a #remoteAF vacation in March 2019. All you have to do to get in the deal is book a room by December 31st and be willing to pay one percent of the room rate (which ends up being basically a few dollars). Spring Break #OTG anyone?
If you've made up your mind to explore the Arctic, this is your chance. Even though this hotel is located in remote AF, it's actually very important. The town is close to Northeast Greenland National Park, the largest national park in the world! Plus, it’s home to the longest fjord system in the world—hello, National Geographic -level content opportunities! If hiking, snowshoeing, dog sledding, boating and fishing in the Arctic Ocean isn't your thing, you can go soak in the hot springs or simply look up and admire the Northern Lights. That said, this is a magical place that has opened its doors to tourism for the first time, giving travelers a unique opportunity to truly try something new.
If you can’t wait for your chance to take part in this special promotion, all you have to do is head over to Hotels.com and book your stay before December 31st! That said, if you think you like this idea, you're going to want to book it fast—and you better believe these seven rooms will fill up quickly. Once you select your date, simply choose to pay online and enter the code "REMOTE" to redeem the Arctic offer of a lifetime.
As for the fine print, you'll end up paying one percent of the room rate (up to a few dollars) plus some minor taxes that may apply.
If you've been saying you want to #offthegrid, this experience will be a rewarding challenge. With no cell service, you'll be forced to keep your head up and be present, but it's not hard as some of the wonders of the world will distract you. Hurry and book your room now before someone overtakes you!
