Experience heavenly adventures made of ice all year round at the sensational Icehotel. Surrounded by a dreamlike backdrop of mountain scenery and a wild river in remote Jukkasjärvi, this luxury accommodation offers a wonderful stay in both winter and summer. The hotel lives up to its name, as it is lovingly rebuilt from ice every year during the cold winter months and decorated with intricately designed ice sculptures.
The spectacular ice rooms at the Icehotel, which are built annually from snow and ice and permanently cooled to -5 degrees Celsius, are undoubtedly the highlight. In addition, there are comfortable hotel rooms and rustic chalets that impress with their coziness and warmth. To ensure an eventful stay, it is essential to choose a combination of an ice room and one of the other types of accommodation.
The cuisine awaiting you on site is just as spectacular as the Icehotel itself. Each day, you can choose between dining outdoors or in the warm surroundings of the three restaurants, where freshly prepared creations made with regional ingredients are served. Some dishes are even served on a piece of ice from the river. Another highlight is the Icebar, where you can enjoy a delicious cocktail on the snow dance floor.
A variety of excursions and experiences await you at the Icehotel. The summer and winter seasons in particular offer their own unique opportunities. In winter, activities in the snow, such as snowmobile and dog sled rides, ice sculpture building, and skiing, take center stage. In summer, on the other hand, options include boat trips on the river, outdoor dining, and hiking. Between August and April, the famous Northern Lights occasionally appear in the sky, while saunas and massages are available for relaxation all year round.
You are guaranteed a fairytale vacation at the Icehotel, located far away from civilization in Jukkasjärvi. The property is rebuilt every winter from ice and snow, which has made it world-famous. Each room is individually designed and, with its detailed ice sculptures, creates a magical atmosphere that will amaze you every day of your stay. The hotel uses solar panels on the roof to generate sufficient cooling energy to keep the building at a constant -5 degrees Celsius 365 days a year. In addition to the spectacular ice rooms, the Icehotel also offers traditionally heated hotel rooms and chalets. To allow you to take part in the exciting excursions, we recommend limiting your stay in one of the icy rooms to a few days and spending the rest of your time in one of the heated accommodations, which are made from natural materials and offer excellent comfort.
