igloo hotel

Frozen dome lodging

An igloo hotel is a lodging built from ice or hard-packed snow, offering guests the novelty of sleeping in Arctic conditions.

These establishments range from simple ice structures to elaborate complexes with ice sculptures, bars, and furniture carved from frozen blocks.

Most operate only during winter months and must be rebuilt each season: We spent our honeymoon at an igloo hotel in Finland.
