As unique as it is transient, ICEHOTEL promises an unforgettable stay.
Standing 200 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle, ICEHOTEL is a winter phenomenon created afresh each year by international artists - entirely hewn from ice and snow with no two ever the same. From mid-December to mid-April, guests can spend one night in ICEHOTEL - the temperature remaining between -5 and -8 degrees - with further nights spent in the rustic warmth of the Kaamos rooms or chalets. While the original hotel melts in the spring, ICEHOTEL 365 remains open year-round, offering an arctic experience in its 20 hand-chiselled suites filled with ice and snow sculptures, the ice gallery and ICEBAR BY ICEHOTEL.
Glistening ice sculptures line pillared hallways hung with ice chandeliers, whilst individually themed Art Suites feature ice furnishings and ice beds topped with thermal sleeping bags laid on reindeer skins. Dine from bowls of crystal-clear ice in the restaurant, or feast in more historical surroundings at the Old Homestead restaurant overlooking the Torne River, before enjoying a colourful cocktail or two at ICEBAR BY ICEHOTEL. Exhilarating winter activities include husky sledding, snowmobiling, reindeer encounters, tours to see the Northern Lights and ice sculpting. For this truly memorable getaway deviating from our usual luxury offerings, we’d suggest elevating your experience with a fully hosted stay, or embracing the opportunity to design your own bespoke ice suite in conjunction with an ICEHOTEL designer.
