Visit an Igloo

In areas where temperatures can drop to -50 degrees, you may find the inside temperature of an igloo to be 20 to 70 degrees warmer than the outside temperatures.

The ultimate winter accommodation.


Meaning ‘Snow House’ in the native tongue of the Inuit people who invented them, Igloos are a traditional form of accommodation that date back centuries.

Though today they are few in number, during the winter months, some of the world’s colder destinations offer you the unique chance to spend the night in one of these unique dwellings.

Faq?

Most traditional igloos are only open only during the winter months, usually from late November till the end of March. However, non-snow and ice built versions such as Borealis Basecamp and Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort, open almost all year round.

We recommend one or two nights.

You should pack plenty of warm clothing, however, the hotel will provide sleeping bags and all other necessary equipment to ensure you are comfortable and warm during your stay.

Yes, most igloo hotels are situated in the far north where, depending on the time of year and weather conditions the Northern Lights are viewable.
