The Icehotel for 2018 has been revealed

The world's best winter wonderland 
Ice Hotel

This year’s Icehotel in Sweden has been revealed – and it’s a beauty.

A new hotel is built each year in the Swedish village of Jukkasjärvi – 200 km north of the Arctic Circle – using ice from the nearby river Torne.

Each room is individually themed and hand-carved by a guest artist from around the world. This year’s stunning rooms feature astronauts, King Kong and giant snails.

Each room is unique and cooled to -5 to -8 degrees Celsius. You sleep in a thermal sleeping bag, on top of a hand-carved block of ice covered in reindeer hides. In the morning, you’re woken with a cup of hot lingonberry juice.
