ICEHOTEL, SWEDEN. When the winter hotel returns to the Torne River, ICEHOTEL transforms into a destination of striking contrasts, offering a unique blend of wilderness adventure and Arctic serenity. In the meeting of stillness and movement, and the balance between hot and cold, an environment is created where body and mind can slow down to the rhythm of nature - all under the glow of the midnight sun.

Winter Inside, Summer Outside

Through ICEHOTEL 365—the year-round part of the hotel powered with help of solar energy - the winter experience remains accessible even during the warmest days of summer. Here, guests can sleep in hand-carved Art Suites and enjoy a drink at ICEBAR by ICEHOTEL after a day in the wilderness.

The hotel features 18 Art and Deluxe Suites made of ice and snow. For those dreaming of a morning beyond the ordinary, there is the opportunity to wake up surrounded by ice art, warm up in a private sauna (available in the Deluxe Suites), and finish with a morning plunge in the Torne River just outside the door.

“Sleeping in an Art Suite during the summer is an unforgettable experience. There is a special feeling in stepping into the cool, silent suite after a day in the sun—or taking a plunge in the river after a night among the ice,”

says Marie Herrey, CEO of ICEHOTEL.

From late May to mid-July, the midnight sun shines around the clock, providing the perfect conditions for late-night sauna rituals, evening swims, and wilderness dinners over an open fire. In the ICEHOTEL Restaurant, the signature Ice Menu is served, where seasonal local flavors are presented on plates made of crystal-clear ice.

Stay Your Way – All Year Round

ICEHOTEL 365 offers both iconic Art Suites and exclusive Deluxe Suites. For those who prefer warm accommodations, hotel rooms and charming wooden chalets are also available. Summer in Jukkasjärvi is a place where the midnight sun outside and the winter stillness inside create memories that linger long after the journey home.
