Glass Igloo

The glass-roofed igloos provide you the opportunity to sleep beneath the starry skies and the Northern Lights. Even though this far north, the appearance of the Northern Lights can never be guaranteed. However, sleeping under a 360º glass roof multiplies your chances of seeing the renowned Aurora Borealis.

Each igloo is extremely well heat insulated to ensure guests are not bothered by the cold in even the coldest of times at night – the temperature is the same as in normal hotel rooms. The roof of the igloo is made from electrically heated glass, which means the glass will not cool the space; rather it maintains evenly distributed warmth while melting the snow and ice off the roof to give you excellent view to the sky.

There are two twin beds and due to the motorization feature of the beds they can’t be set as a double bed. A third bed can be added.

Facilities

Maximum occupancy 3 Glass roof En suite bathroom Free WIFI
