Four offbeat hotels in Scandinavia

© Asaf Kliger High up in the frozen wilds of northern Sweden, the doors to the 31st Icehotel have just creaked open. Every year since 1989, the Icehotel has been created afresh in the little village of Jukkasjärvi. Outside the mercury falls to as low as –20˚C. But inside the thermometer remains a steady, and relatively balmy, 5˚C thanks to the 563 tons of ice from the river Torne used to build the hotel.  The Icehotel is also an art gallery. In normal years, chainsaw-wielding artists arrive from around the world every October to work the blocks of ice into fantastic shapes. Last year, there was a ferris wheel and miniature rollercoaster to celebrate three decades of the hotel in ice. This year, because of travel restrictions (see below), the artists are all from Sweden. But the range of designs are as quixotic – not to mention exotic – as ever. A giant lizard skulks in its icy den in one suite, along with other fantastical creatures.
