  Ice Hotels [ Robert Broad Travel ]   -   Ice Hotel in Sweden  -  Jukkasjarvi
Jukkasjarvi is located 200km north of the Arctic Circle, in the heart of Swedish Lapland, a region inhabited by the Sami. The village has a Lapp museum and picturesque church. There isn't much else apart from an excellent rustic restaurant, so evenings are usually spent around the Ice Hotel resort but, after a day filled with outdoor activities, you probably won't want to stray too far anyway!
Over 3,000 tons of ice and 30,000 cubic metres of snow are used to construct the Ice Hotel.
