All facilities were beautiful and staff incredibly professional and friendly. They organized all activities and dining in advance as per our request. A truly 5 star experience all around.

Our stay was fabulous! We really were warm and cozy in our igloo ice room! Such a unique and memorable experience!
Allyson, 1-night trip

The customer service was above and beyond what we expected. The amenities in the resort were fantastic. Breakfast selection was phenomenal. The Ice Igloo was surprisingly comfortable to sleep in - a once in a lifetime experience and worth it.

The igloo hotel was amazing! Can't say enough good things about this place. The artistry was amazing. The staff was so nice. They went out of their way to help us multiple times. They even came to tell everyone the northern lights were out. Would definitely recommend and stay there again

Ice Hotel was a near experience. Sleeping bags kept you nice and cozy. Experience of a lifetime.

Stay in the ice hotel

The snow/ice hotel looks like it was constructed in a hurry and not many ice carvings, compared to others in Scandinavia. There were many spots on the ceilings that looked like water had entered and different colors. Small details but not worthy of the price charged. The main hotel facilities are fantastic and the staff was great!

Overall, good experience. Nice facilities, friendly staff and beautiful igloo hotel. I thought it was weird that we had to pick up our sleeping bags and pillows and carry them to our room inside the igloo. That process could be more seamless but everything else was great!

Fantasy Experience

Awesome experience! Slept in the ice hotel for two nights and it was some of the best sleep I've had. If I had one criticism, it would be the lack of info on the website explaining how it all works (i.e. you don't get to leave any of your things in the room because they run tours during the day). Small thing though and well worth the expense and travel to do it.
PAUL, 2-night trip

Stunning and uncomfortable

It may not come as a surprise that sleeping in an igloo is not overly comfortable. I loved the overall experience, and the ice art is incredible. That said, it was much more comfortable to sleep in the lodge and just visit the ice hotel to admire the art. The staff is super helpful, friendly and sweetly authentic. This is one place that still has soul, does not feel like a corporation.
Laila, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Most amazing place we’ve ever been to. Don’t worry about the cold. You are provided more than ample sleeping bag and we actually found ourselves more than warm enough. The sculptures are stunning as is the lighting and quietness. The excursions available are fantastic and if more than one night in ice hotel is enough for you, you can move into a regular indoor hotel room. There is ample warm common spaces to spend your day relaxing and sitting in front of a fire if you’d like.
