Visit to Snow Hotel & Ice Restaurant

Located 30km away from Rovaniemi centre, this hotel completely made of snow and ice is one of the largest snow constructions in the Nordic countries! Inside you may find many hotel rooms (yes, you may stay overnight!), an ice chapel, an ice bar, an ice restaurant… Each room is designed in a unique thematic and adorned with beautiful ice sculptures.

The tour includes comfortable transportation from/to Rovaniemi by minivan and the entrance to the snow hotel. Your guide will also happily join you along the visit to show you the different rooms, and explain a bit more about the construction of the hotel.

During the visit, if the ice bar is open, you can even order a drink (not included in the price) and "chill" around an ice table! The drinks are served in an ice glass, naturally!
