You can have the ultimate winter experince a night at The Hotel de Glace which have 36 rooms and suites.

Before spending a night at the Hotel de Glace, you will be invited to attend a briefing by your own fides. They will be happy to walk tou through the unique experience of sleeping in an ice hotel and tell you need to know about the equipment available.

During winter, in Quebec, the outside temperatures can vary between -25 C ( -13F ) in February to 5 C ( 41 F ) in March. What do you think you will dress? If you need some sugestions, think about your inner, middle and outer layer, and we won’t remand you about gloves, hats and boots.

If you want to visit this incredible hotel, you need warm wear warm Wink

Since I will probably never make it there, I need to ask...

What is it like. Are the bedrooms kept below freezing? Are the beds comfortable, or are they really cold? Does it have all the 'regular' amenities?

I just really want to know... Thanks.

The one in Quebec City is the best one in the country. The region is full of various activities for both the parents and kids.

Staying the night in a frozen hotel?! There must be some very odd preparations to keep the guests warm without melting the whole building?

On the bright side all the drinks would be cold without ice! Smile

I cant imagine sleeping on a block of ice. Do you get some sort of mattress?

Would be a pretty cool (no pun intended) experience.
