LOOKING FOR A COOL BREAK? THEN SPEND A WEEKEND IN SWEDEN’S ICE HOTEL!
ICEHOTEL is the world’s first and largest hotel built of snow and ice and it is situated in Jukkasjärvi, a small village in Northern Sweden with 1,100 residents and 1,000 dogs.
How about sleeping in a suite surrounded by polar bears?
Every winter in the heart of Swedish Lapland, something truly magical happens. As the waters of the river Torne freeze over, a glittering, shimmering hotel emerges, sculpted out of the ice itself. Set in pristine wilderness in Swedish Lapland around 200 km north of the Arctic Circle, the Icehotel is a magnificent location for a weekend break or longer holiday with a difference.
Each room of the ICEHOTEL stands out by different details and characteristics
From the moment you step inside the door, you’ll understand why this hotel is famous the world over – from it’s hallways lined with ice art and glittering chandeliers, to the atmospheric ice bar, you won’t be able to stop yourself being swept away by the magic.
Even the milk can and the cushions are made of ice…
You will feel energized after spending a few nights in a suite like this, guarded by the Planets.
The ingenuity of the design and construction has to be seen to be believed and, with an interior temperature kept at a constant -5°C, it really does take your breath away. Each winter the hotel is built to a new design, filled with all manner of amazing ice sculptures and features, only for it to melt back into the river from sometime in April.
Minimalist and contemporary art suite…
This suite features also an ice desk so you can keep up with business while on vacation…
If you are looking for a truly inspiring winter getaway, then a visit to the Icehotel should be at the top of your ‘to do’ list. The ‘sleeping on ice’ experience is certainly not to be forgotten and is far more comfortable than it may at first sound. Add in fine dining, a cozy bed for additional nights, a whole host of snowbound activities such as husky sledding and snowmobiling and the chance to see the northern lights you have the ultimate ‘cool’ break.
