ICEHOTEL – a world famous hotel and an art exhibition made of ice and snow. Founded in 1989, it is reborn in a new guise every winter, in the Swedish village of Jukkasjärvi – 200 km north of the Arctic Circle. The nearby Torne River provides us with enough ice to build a new ICEHOTEL - every year. The ice of the river transforms to handmade design and architecture at ICEHOTEL, an art project and the world’s first, and largest hotel built of snow and ice.
Since 2016, right next to the winter open hotel of ice, you’ll find the year-round open part of ICEHOTEL, the permanent structured ICEHOTEL 365. The solar panels covering the roof contributes to keep it cool during summer and while open 365 days a year – it enables the possibility to sleep on ice no matter the outdoor temperature or season.
