On Ice in Québec City

By Linda Tancs

Open every winter from January to mid-March, Hôtel de Glace (ice hotel) in Canada is the only ice hotel in North America. Situated within the Village Vacances Valcartier near Québec City, the seasonal attraction is made entirely of snow and ice. This ultimate Nordic sleepover features a warm sleeping bag atop your ice bed. The facility includes a Grand Hall, chapel and a bar with drinks served in glasses made of ice.
