The Icehotel offers unique experiences throughout the year. From December to April, visitors can enjoy the full winter wonderland experience when the ephemeral Icehotel is at its most magical. Each year, it is newly designed and constructed from ice and snow from the nearby Torne River. For those interested in ice experiences any time of the year, Icehotel 365 provides a permanent ice exhibition.
Booking in advance is essential due to the Icehotel's popularity. Many prefer to stay in both the traditional cold rooms made of snow and ice and the warm rooms offered on site. Visitors can choose from a wide array of artistic suites, each year crafted by skilled artists worldwide, or opt for a more conventional room.
Visitors should prepare for extreme cold with thermal and waterproof clothing. Layering is key. Pack thermal underwear, a thick jacket, insulated gloves, hats, scarves, and warm socks. While visiting cold areas, being well-equipped ensures comfort during both indoor and outdoor activities.
For those staying overnight in the ice suites, specific sleeping bags are usually provided. It's advisable to bring personal toiletries, portable chargers, and a camera to capture memories.

Festivals like the Kiruna Snow Festival offer insight into local traditions with reindeer races and sledding competitions.
