The Icehotel in Jukkasjärvi in Sweden is…really cool. Although I did not stay overnight there, I had to see it for myself, as I have heard about it over the years. I took at least 513 photographs — and that does not even include Icehotel Winter, which is the first and largest hotel in the world that is constructed out of snow and ice that was yet to be completed and therefore was not ready yet during my visit.
Icehotel in Jukkasjärvi in Sweden. Really Cool.
“Icehotel Winter has been reincarnated in a new rendition every winter for the last three decades, every year with brand new art to experience”, according to the official Internet web site of Icehotel. “During an intense period in Jukkasjärvi during November and early December every year, the empty space on the riverbank turns into a magnificent hotel made of ice and snow.”
I visited Icehotel 365, which is mostly constructed from ice but is designed to be available all year long — and just as a teaser, photographs of only a few of the art suites and deluxe suites are presented in this article.

Final Boarding Call
All of the ice suites at Icehotel are carved by hand by artists from around the world — and what is included in this article does not even show the best work. I was simply mesmerized.
Stay tuned for more articles about this amazing lodging option…
