Sleeping in an ephemeral ice and snow hotel
Hotel ephemeral
This year the Igloo Hotel Grandvalira is presented with a renewed offer. The peculiar construction of ice and snow this winter has three bedrooms. Guests can opt for a standard room with capacity for up to 6 people, ideal for groups of friends who want to live a different experience, or by two romantic rooms with capacity for two people.
The exotic hotel is the result of weeks of work during which they have moved 9000 meters cubic of snow. The interior design is inspired by details of the Pyrenean Romanesque, with sculptures that combine ice and packed snow. This unique experience to sleep in the ice (but with all the amenities) complete with common areas open to the public: a restaurant where you enjoy an invigorating conditioning, a terrace bar and 'lounge' music room and a jacuzzi overlooking the spectacular night sky over the Pyrenees.
Located at 2,350 meters, the hotel has beds equipped with special materials for extreme conditions. All rooms are lit with solar power LEDs and decorated with candles. To enjoy a quiet overnight stay is recommended to include in carry warm clothing in snow, warm and comfortable shoes, gloves, sunglasses, socks and underwear, spare towel, swimsuit and flip flops for the jacuzzi, flashlight, and toothbrush. A unique experience at the top of the world!
