Trip Advisor Review

"“We paid over $700 for one night and don’t feel it was really worth it. The cheaper ice rooms that literally look like prison cells felt overpriced and underwhelming.”"

Unknown

"“The place really is worth the $18 tour ticket—vast with multiple themed rooms and stunning ice sculptures. We also tried the ice slide! A must‑see near Quebec City.”"

ThomasK229

"“Hôtel de Glace is North America’s only ice hotel, open January through March. Incredible architecture, ice bar, chapel and an unforgettable immersive experience in themed rooms.”"
