Ice Hotel Sweden

Ice Hotel Now Year Round

The famous ice hotel I’ve heard about ever since I’ve heard about Sweden, it seems like.  The ICE Hotel is built ever year (since it was made out of ice) in the Swedish village of Jukkasjärvi.  It features not only rooms guests can sleep in (yes, made out of ice), but also has a famous ‘ice bar’ where you can drink your liquor out of an ice glass.

Since November, though, you can now experience the ICE Hotel year round with a new ICEHOTEL 360. This will have saunas and bathrooms, a large ice bar and an ice gallery that will be cooled in the summers using solar panels.

Check out the awesome video above (which totally makes me miss Sweden!) or visit their website to learn more about the ICE Hotel.
