    After 27 years of being built and rebuilt each winter, northern Sweden’s ICEHOTEL 365 will be the first frozen accommodation in the world to stay open year-round.\u00a0New solar-powered cooling technology will allow part of the legendary hotel, including a bar, art gallery and 10 luxury suites, to host guests in search of midnight sun as well as the northern lights.<\/div>\n
    Located 200 kilometers north of the Arctic circle in Jukkasj\u00e4rvi, ICEHOTEL has been built to a fresh blueprint each year, using 5,000 tons of ice taken from the nearby River Torne in the spring and cold-stored over the summer.<\/div>\n
