Beautiful Igloo Hotel, a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but not for everyone
Pros:

Very cozy and nice hotel at a beautiful location. The Igloo Hotel part is mind-blowing, so impressive I find hard to describe, the ice sculptures are just epic. Sleeping bags and the reindeer-skin plus mattress will be enough to make you warm. Both the dinner and the breakfast is top-notch, close to a fine-dining experience.

Cons:

The Igloo part of the hotel is not for everyone. It's not about being comfortable, but to have an experience you'll remember for the rest of your life. If you like sleeping in a tent out in nature, it won't be a problem.

Une nuit en chambre de glace, c'est bien pour les réseaux sociaux mais ça s'arrête là
Pros:

Les scuptures de glace, moment magique et la possibilité de dormir dans une chambre de glace.

Cons:

L'amabilité du personnel très froid du dimanche matin, limite hautain.

Manque d'égard pour les clients qui choisissent de dormir dans la chambre de glace (pourtant une des chambre les plus chers de l'établissement). C'est un choix personnel de dormir sans confort donc aucune remise en question de l'expérience en elle-même, elle était telle qu'indiquée par l'hôtel, pas de mauvaises surprises.
En revanche pour le prix de cette nuit peu confortable on pourrait espérer plus d'égard de petits services additionnels de la part de l'hôtel pour les dormeurs de glace : pas assez de changing room prévues le matin donc obligés d'attendre dans le couloir près de la salle du petit déjeuner, moment très désagréable devant tout le monde en tenue de nuit... L'hotel ne propose aucun peignoir ou tenue de sortie pour les dormeurs en chambre de glace, ce serait un ajout simple et confortable pourtant. Ensuite, mériterez une petite place réservée dans la salle du petit déjeuner près du feu pour "féliciter leur bravoure". Enfin nous n'avons pas eu accès aux changing room après le petit déjeuner (car en nettoyage) donc comment faire pour se brosser les dents puisque pas de salle de bain attitrée ? Obligé d'aller dans les WC ... . Bref, l'expérience en elle-même oui (attention de pas être claustrophobe), le service de l'hôtel autour, non, pas à la hauteur du prix de l'expérience proposée.

Le prix prohibitif du cocktail dans l'espace de glace, les verres sont à disposition, donc amenez plutôt votre propre alcool et faites vous votre propre shot ! D'ailleurs cela aussi pourrait être offert à ceux qui choisissent de dormir dans une chambre de glace, je dis ça ...

Pros:

The ice hotel was totally amazing. I had read that this was the best ice hotel it was. Sleeping in the igloo was a brilliant experience. As long as you wear the correct clothing as advised, you are not cold. The Sleeping bag was unbelievably warm. The warm part of the hotel, wow. Warm real fires, great atmosphere, amazing food. Staff were attentive and friendly.

Cons:

Anyone saying they were cold. Obviously, not followed clothing guidance 🙄 for the igloo

Pros:

Le cadre extérieur magnifique.
L'ambiance feutrée et calme des salons.
Les sculptures de glace.
L'expérience de dormir sur un lit de glace

Cons:

Les prix.
Le manque de communication au sujet de la navette . J'ai envoyé 2 messages. Au 1er, on m'a répondu qu'ils étaient très occupés et qu'ils me répondraient le plus vite possible. Je n'ai pas eu de réponse, d'où mon 2eme message pour lequel je n'ai eu aucune réponse !

Amazing experience we will always remember
Pros:

Stunning experience staying at the ice hotel, expensive but completely worth every penny. Staff were excellent and the hotel is clean and warm with incredible views. We were so sad to leave. The ice rooms are surprisingly quiet and I slept really well! Great showers next day and plenty of places to chill when not in the igloo part. Top tip: do not drink too much before bed. And get cozy and stay dry before you go to the igloo part. We had northern lights and so there was a lot of being outside before bed so we took a while to warm up before getting ready for our igloo.

Cons:

Leaving!

The showers were busy in the morning!

Pros:

L’hôtel de glace est fabuleux, et vaut vraiment le détour (il peut se visiter). Le personnel est très agréable et l’hôtel très sympathique

Cons:

En revanche je ne recommanderais pas d’y dormir. Même si l’expérience est unique. C’est très cher pour ce que c’est. Les « chambres » ne sont pas accessibles avant 20h. Tout nécessite de payer un supplément . Ce n’était pas très confortable (même si on s’y attendais): très froid, peau de bête qui sentait très fort,

If you’re thinking about doing the most igloo hotel, definitely do it. It is cold but they give you Arctic sleeping bags
Pros:

This was truly a a bucket list trip. The hotel is absolutely amazing. The he igloo Pictures do not do it justice. Extremely talented people put their craft on display. The staff is very friendly and all the culturally experiences are wonderful.
