Arctic SnowHotel & Glass Igloos are located on the Arctic Circle, 30 minutes’ drive from central Rovaniemi. Glass Igloos offer heated floors and thermal-glass roofs with a view to the sky. A private bathroom with a shower is featured in all glass igloos. The igloo has a 360-degree glass roof to ensure views in all directions. SnowHotel rooms has temperature of 0 to -5 degrees Celsius regardless of the outdoor temperature. The rooms are equipped with electric lights with shared bathroom and shower facilities. Upon arrival the guests will be taken for a guided tour and receive high quality sleeping bags for their overnight stay. Please notice that only 1 night stay in the SnowHotel is recommended due to extreme experience sleeping in below 0 Celsius degree temperature. The hotel's special Aurora Borealis alarm service guarantees that guests won't miss an appearance of the Northern Lights. Guests can enjoy a snow sauna and outdoor jacuzzi, as well as a sauna located beside Lake Lehtojärvi. Characteristic Lappish dishes with local products are served in the restaurants. There’s Icebar and 3 restaurants on site. Snowshoeing and ice fishing with a local guide are possible on site. From mid-December to end of March, guests have free admission to the SnowHotel. Transfer to and from Rovaniemi Airport or Rovaniemi city center, 22 mi away, can be arranged.
