Finland's Arctic Snow Hotel

February 23, 2014

The Arctic Snow Hotel located just a few kilometers from the Arctic Circle boasts three restaurants and a bar. Each year Ville Haarikko from Finland rebuilds the structure which is made entirely of ice and snow, including a sauna. As for the rooms, the two-meter thick walls provide good insulation although inside it's only minus five degrees Celsius. Guests bed down in special sleeping bags.
