Tonight you will sleep in a glass igloo. When sleeping in the Glass Igloo you will be able to marvel the amazing northern lights and the millions of stars in the sky. The experience is also unforgettable when there is a snowstorm. The Glass Igloos have been built from a very special thermo glass and because of this, the temperature inside the Igloo is always a normal room temperature. It also prevents the glass from not getting frosted, hence keeping the view clear even when the temperature drops under -30 C. To increase the comfort of the customer, the Igloos have a toilet and luxury beds. Every morning there is also a sauna and a possibility to swim in an ice hole nearby.
