Overview

This is the most Instagrammable destination in Rovaniemi and something you don’t want to miss. Arctic SnowHotel is one of the largest snow and ice hotels in the world. Inside the hotel, the temperature is always between 0°C and -5°C, so it is comfortable to visit even if it is very cold outside.

The experience begins with the story behind the hotel, explaining how it is rebuilt from snow and ice every year. Our guide introduces the techniques of snow construction, snow and ice art, and explains what happens to the structure when summer arrives.

After the introduction, one of the hotel’s most special features is demonstrated in practice: the snow sauna. You will see how a sauna made of snow functions and experience the effect of water thrown onto the hot stove. Finally, our guide will lead you inside the hotel, where you are free to explore at your own pace, visit the rooms, and admire dozens of snow and ice sculptures.
