The hotel welcomes the visitors only a few months a year. It is usually opened in December. In case of favorable weather conditions you can visit the ice hotel until April. Ice and snow serve as main building material during the construction of the hotel. Each year, ice blocks with a total weight of 10,000 tonnes are cut from the frozen river Turne-Elva. In addition, 30 000 tonnes of the white snow are brought to the construction site. The hotel building and the entire interior are completely made of ice and snow. To preserve original crystal clear splendor, the special temperature control in the hotel is maintained.
Every year the hotel looks different. All rooms are individually decorated and decorated with ice sculptures. To make the cold hotel rooms more comfortable, the ice beds are covered with natural fur. One of the main design elements of the hotel is the original beautiful lighting. This unique hotel also offers many additional services. On its territory there is an excellent sauna and a magnificent ice bar. The active guests can bring variety into the recreation with the winter sports.
