Enjoy the winter wonderland

This year, escape the stress and musts of Christmas to the ethereal surroundings of Icehotel, Sweden. Swap night life for northern lights, taxi rides for dog sledding through winter wonderland and hotel linens for reindeer fur and sleeping bags surrounded by ice art.

Christmas at Icehotel is about relaxing and unwinding; read a book or play cards in the lounge over a cup of hot chocolate or enjoy award-winning food in the cozy restaurant.

Experience an unforgettable Christmas Holiday at Sweden’s original Icehotel.

Head out on a snowmobile to get the Christmas tree

Then we will enjoy coffee and something sweet while we dress up the Christmas tree with decorations.
