You will be supplied with a specially made sleeping bag (made by Fjällräven who know a thing or two about sleeping in the Arctic) complete with a sleeping bag liner. In the morning a hot drink will be brought to you, after which you can enjoy an early morning sauna followed by breakfast.

The temperature in the Ice Hotel varies between -4 and -9 degrees centigrade, depending on the temperature outside and the number of overnight guests.

The art of building an igloo...

The building materials are FREE(zing) and are delivered in abundance, every year, at the appropriate time. The moment the thermometer hits 3 degrees below freezing (the temperature required by the snow cannons), the building of the Ice Hotel commences.

A staggering 30 000 tons of snow is sprayed on to specially made metal moulds. Once the snow is sufficiently hard, the moulds are removed and used again to make further snow sections.
Every year our building techniques improve and our snow-how increases.
