This week I am writing about the chilly topic of, an ice hotel! When most hotels are a warm heated place, this one is fully made of snow and ice! (Also known as snice) This hotel has been upgraded every year since 1989, when it first opened. The sesonal hotel's 9 suites were made by carefully selected artists from all around the world out of 200 aplicants. This years rooms feature fluffy cumulus clouds, a pair of astronaunts, and even kind kong all carved out of ice or 'snice'.
Each 290-square-foot (27-square-meter) suite sleeps 2-4 guests. Allowing couples or familys to share a room. To ensure visitors are comfortable, in the extremely cold -23 to -18 degree rooms, the beds are covered with reindeer heids. Guests are also advised to sleep in the hotels thermal sleeping bags. Creating such an icy place is no easy task. Preparation for each ice hotel begins in March when about 5,000 tons of ice are placed in cold storage. Soon, construction begins in late October by the many talented artists. The hotel will usually open in late November or early December, and then in April the following year, all the hardwork will melt. Would you stay in this freezing hotel? I sure wouldn't! But this is cool, and I would defintely want a tour of this place!
