The Sorrisniva Igloo Hotel was the second of its kind and is the World’s Northernmost Igloo Hotel. Each year our experienced artists and builders come together to build a new and unique hotel with a special theme. The Igloo Hotel has an area of 2,500 m2 and it takes 250 tonnes of ice and 7,000 m3 of snow to build it. We harvest the ice from Sierravann, which is only a few kilometers further into the Alta Valley from Sorrisniva, and we produce the snow using the water from the famous Alta River located only meters away from the hotel.
The Igloo Hotel is open from mid/end December until the beginning of April for overnight stays and visitations. Experience the thrill of the Arctic with a stay in the Igloo Room at the world’s northernmost igloo hotel.
Constructed entirely from large ice blocks and snow, the Igloo Double Room offers an authentic Arctic experience. The centerpiece of the room is an extra-large ice bed, topped with an insulated mattress and soft reindeer hides to keep you warm and cozy throughout the night. Staying in an Igloo Room is your chance to immerse yourself in a true winter wonderland, where the beauty of ice and snow surrounds you, and the Arctic adventure begins right at your doorstep.
The Igloo Family Room consists of two connecting double rooms with a king-size bed (240 cm wide), a bed frame made of ice and a real mattress covered in reindeer hides.
