Ice Hotel Stay in Lapland

A stay at an Ice Hotel or an igloo in Lapland is a one-of-a-kind experience where travelers can sleep in rooms crafted entirely from ice and snow. These hotels are rebuilt every winter, featuring intricately carved ice suites, glowing ice bars, and frozen art galleries. The most popular locations in Finnish Lapland include Rovaniemi, Levi, and Kemi, with bookings available from December to April through travel platforms or directly with the hotels.

Despite temperatures inside these hotels being around -5°C (23°F), guests stay warm with thermal sleeping bags and reindeer hides. Beyond the stay, ice hotels offer exciting Arctic activities, such as Northern Lights tours, husky sledding, snowmobiling, ice fishing, and reindeer safaris. Guests can also visit ice restaurants serving local Lappish cuisine and sip drinks in ice bars where cocktails are served in frozen glasses. Some hotels offer hybrid stays, allowing visitors to combine a night in an ice suite with a warm lodge experience. Prices vary based on the room type, with basic ice rooms being more affordable and luxury ice suites featuring artistic ice sculptures.
