Sleeping in the Ice Hotel

Sleeping in the Ice Hotel

If you're feeling chilly, think about the people sleeping tonight in the Ice Hotel. Built every winter in Quebec, Canada, the Ice Hotel really is a sparkling hotel totally made of ice and snow. The smooth, almost-clear blocks of ice gleam a faint blue, and are held together with 15,000 tons of packed snow. Even your bed is a block of ice with a deerskin over it (we've slept on it). And it's less than 30 degrees F inside the hotel, since of course there's no heat!
