The worldfamous Icehotel is located in Jukkasjarvi next to Torne river, 11 km from Kiruna. The "ice part" of the hotel will always melt down at spring time and a new hotel will be built during early winter for the following season. This practise will continue also in the future. The winter season 2017/18 will be the 28th for the classic Icehotel. In addition to the seasonal part of the hotel a new, permanent 2.100 sq meter facility, ICEHOTEL 365, is ready to welcome guests from far and near.
The year around temperature inside ICEHOTEL 365 will be -5°C and to keep the temperature below zero also in the summertime, a 600 sqm solar panel has been placed on the roof of the ice storage hall. The solar panel will generate 130.000 kWh, more than enough for ICEHOTEL 365 and all the other buildings on the premises.
The Icehotel's famous icebar is now located inside the ICEHOTEL 365. This seasons theme is "fuzzy icecream" and MR FUZZ is keeping an eye on everyone visiting the bar. With direct access from the bar you will find 9 luxurious suites (with private bathroom and sauna) and 11 art suites.
