Artist-designed ice suites, ice bar, and Arctic adventures
"This delightfully paradoxical property, known to be one of Sweden's foremost winter destinations, transforms into a summer sanctuary where ancient traditions and modern luxury intersect." - Bethany Platanella
"A world-famous hotel built entirely from ice and snow located in Jukkasjärvi, Sweden. The hotel is rebuilt every winter and features artistically designed suites made from ice, as well as warm accommodations and a variety of Arctic experiences, including viewing the Northern Lights." - The MICHELIN Guide Nordic Editorial Team
"Located in the heart of Swedish Lapland, the world-renowned ICEHOTEL is an iconic destination. From December to April, you can stay in a room made of crystal-clear ice from the Torne River or upgrade to one complete with snow and ice sculptures, while the solar-powered ICEHOTEL 365 makes sure the Ice Bar stays frozen whatever the weather (there are some year-round ice suites here too). Spend the day exploring the snowy wilderness and enjoying activities like ice sculpting, dog sledging and snowmobiling, then order a cocktail in an ice glass before watching the Northern Lights dance on the horizon and finally retiring to your ice bed (warm clothes recommended)!" - The MICHELIN Guide Nordic Editorial Team
"Luca Roncoroni, creative director at the Icehotel, recommends layering with wool-blend vests and thick woolen sweaters for extreme cold."
"Swedish Lapland’s famous Icehotel, it turns out, is open year-round. From December through April, guests check in to Ice Rooms made out of ice from the Torne River, or upgrade to Art Suites, which are like Ice Rooms but with unique ice and snow sculptures. But there’s also the all-season Icehotel 365, whose solar-powered building stays cool enough to house permanent ice suites. And there’s also the so-called Warm Accommodation, a selection of more traditional hotel rooms or chalet apartments, all housed in permanent wooden structures." - Mark Fedeli
