The world famous Ice Hotel in Jukkasjärvi celebrates its 25 years birthday 2015. Take the opportunity to experience this year’s unique hotel suites before the hotel closes on the 12th of April.

Every winter, thousands of people from all over the world travel to this remote hotel located 200 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle. They come to experience and be amazed by the art, design and architecture- all of it crafted fully in ice. Over the years, a number of creators have taken turns putting their mark on this fascinating hotel that melts down and disappears when spring comes. The Ice Hotel is in a constant process of change, but the sauna facilities from Tylö are permanent features. Year after year the contrast between Jukkasjärvi’s crispy iciness and Tylö’s steamy sauna facilities provides unforgettable experiences for the guest.

The collaboration between Tylö and the Ice Hotel is now so firmly established that one of Tylö’s heaters has even been made in to a sculpture. Entirely made in ice, of course.

Tylö has installed a number beautiful sauna baths at the Ice Hotel, ranging from a traditional wood heated sauna decorated in light aspen wood to a steam room with an exact image of the Nordic starry sky displayed in the arched ceiling.
