Our Classic Ice Break

Our Classic Ice Break is the ideal way to enjoy the ICEHOTEL with a night in Stockholm to help you unwind before the short flight to Kiruna the next day in time for a light lunch.

In Sweden’s capital you stay at the family owned Esplanade hotel overlooking the harbour and at the ICEHOTEL a full programme of excursions and activities is included with an overnight in a Snow room and another in ‘warm accommodation’.

At the ICEHOTEL your snow room is formed in the shape of an igloo with a double frame bed, resting on blocks of ice illuminated from below and topped with a thermal mattress covered with reindeer skins.

DAY 1 UK – STOCKHOLM
