The Norway ice hotel (also known as the Igloo Hotel) is a magical place in Alta, north Norway, the land of the northern lights. The ice hotel in north Norway has received numerous awards for design, and if you are staying in the Troms region it is definitely worth spending a night in the ice hotel.
The Igloo measures approx 2000 square metres and the entire exterior and interior is made of snow and ice; the rooms, the beds, even the glasses in the ice bar. Apart from its 30 bedrooms, the Igloo Hotel houses suites, an ice-chapel, an ice-bar and several lounges.
The hotel is decorated with ice sculptures which are exquisite works of art. The temperature inside the hotel is constant between -4 and -7 degrees. However, guests are sleeping on reindeer hides inside sleeping bags that can stand -30 degrees - so there is not risk getting cold.
Next to the ice hotel, there is a service centre which holds a restaurant, wardrobes/toilets, showers/sauna, 2 outdoor hot tubes, meeting facilities, reception and a souvenir shop. We also recommend a snowmobilesafari during your stay.
The Igloo Hotel is usually open from mid Janary until mid April.
