How long is the Icehotel open?

The original and world-famous Icehotel is open year-round and we offer a hotel and ephemeral art exhibition in a unique natural cycle, 200 km north of the Arctic Circle. The story of Icehotel starts in 1989 when it became the world's first and largest hotel made of ice and snow.
