Sleeping in an Ice Hotel

By , About.com GuideDecember 3, 2012

Follow me on:

There are several ice hotels in Scandinavia, and all of them very unique. So what's an ice hotel really? An ice hotel's guest accommodation can be in large buildings with many guest rooms, or rather in individual igloos like the Igloo Village in Finland.

The room temperature in ice hotels ranges from 0 to -6 degrees Celsius (21-32 degrees Fahrenheit) but you'll be wrapped in a cozy sub-zero sleeping bag.

Many of the ice hotels in Scandinavia open in early December (except the Alta Igloo Hotel in Norway, which opens in mid January). If you're the adventurous type of traveler, it's time now to pick your hotel and book your "Ice Suite" or your igloo!
