Great experience, once in a lifetime! Try to get there by at least 4pm, where you will have a guided tour of the ice hotel. The last tours are 3pm, 4pm and 5pm, so you'll have to get in for one of those. There is then an information session for 1/2 hr to tell you the rules of how to... More

This is not a review for sleeping overnight. We came here on a quiet winter day for a tour so it was easy to walk around the narrow corridors and not bump into many visitors. The snow carvings are quite amazing, the artists really know their craft. We only walked by one closed off, occupied room and could hear a... More

The Ice Hotel Glace, in QUebec City, is amazing, and abosutely a must see, for such beautiful ice carvings, however, there are things people must know, and the pros and cons.... WE SPent our first night at The Fairmont, right in town..... It was an amazing hotel, and only about 10 miles away from the Ice hotel. I wished later... More

How to build an ice hotel from scratch? Begin with 15,000 tons of snow and 500 tons of ice. Just 10 minutes from Quebec’s city centre, the Ice Hotel is like sleeping in a child’s dream. Each room features elaborate carvings and furniture sculpted from ice in the style of Dr. Seuss meets Edward Scissorhands. After prowling around all 36... More

We did not stay overnight but we went to visit this hotel. This is just the greatest place to visit. Just beautiful. If you are around you need to go and spend time here, well worth the money to get in to visit. The bar was great, the drinks are served in ice glasses which were very neat. The staff... More

My wife and I stayed here and absolutely loved the experience. If you follow the instructions given you will stay plenty warm. Make sure to bring with you non-cotton underwear (such as a synthetic sports shirt, polar fleece, etc) and of course your bathing suit for the spa. Sitting in a hot spa in the chilling outdoors weather is really... More

Nothing here was overstated. No touristy degradations designed to make money. The design was not infected modern rooms with all the amenities the discerning guest expects. This, in every sense of the words, was an Ice Hotel. The entire building-every wall, every entrance, hallway, room, the chapel, the entire bar, the seats, were out of ice and snow. The rooms... More

There were 4 couples that stayed in the Ice Hotel - if you do as they instruct, you are warm and in fact, they had to wake us up! It is really beautiful - a great one time experience! There are full locker rooms - which would have been good to know! There was only one bartender, and we kept... More

We still can't get over how this hotel was so close to town yet we felt transformed to a winter wonderland. We were never cold and over night guests have a "lobby" area to stay warm in with free wifi and coffee/tea/hot chocolate!! If you follow all instructions well, sleeping is rather comfortable. Our only issue was that it took... More
