Sweden : New Year at the Icehotel

Departures: December Duration: 4 nights Price: from £1,213

How extraordinary would it be to celebrate the dawn of a new year somewhere as pristine and unspoilt as the ICEHOTEL? Under the clear dark skies of the polar night keep watch for nature’s own light show, the northern lights, ‘chink’ ice glasses and celebrate in style.

Introduction

 

With the ICEHOTEL still looking particularly festive after the Christmas celebrations, New Year here tends to be a more romantic affair. On the night, head over to the elegant ICEHOTEL restaurant and have a complimentary glass of champagne before a delicious candlelit à la carte meal, then everyone wraps up warm and heads outside. As there are more huskies than people in Jukkasjarvi and its surrounds, people here prefer not to set off fireworks in case its scares the dogs. Instead, ICEHOTEL staff light a more traditional bonfire within a circle of candles down by the frozen River Torne, and faces are all aglow as the countdown to midnight begins. Then perhaps, you may want to retire to the ICEBAR…

As with our Christmas trip, there is just one departure so spaces are strictly limited!
